sprevett Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 picking up my '54 Zed soon and am contemplating getting it Nismo'd from the off - but before I jump in, I'm sure there are pro's and con's compared to leaving the car bog standard - so please vote now; Nismo or not? (and why) thanks! Quote
Zedrush Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 One of the best mods I ever did on my car, awesome sound and nearly everyone goes nismo because it is that much of an improvement, Give Big Phil a call at ESR 0191 523 5555 , he does awesome prices on nismo exhaust Quote

And by improvement do you mean sound or other improvements? Quote

And by improvement do you mean sound or other improvements? Lol you woke up on the wrong side of the bed today? No power improvements as the ECU refuses any gains unless UTEC remap, but the sound allows the V6 to come alive, not chavy loud, but performance rumble when going some Quote

Just need to arrange to meet up with some people in the next few weeks, probably at Phils if they are going there, if he doesn't mind. Quote

sl114 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Its very simple, Nike had it right... ...just do it Quote
SimonD Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 TBH you can't go much wrong with the Nismo zorst. I owned one on the last car and loved it, saying that tho the Stillen True Duel I have on the new car is just as awesome if not better (it certainly put's a smile on my face ) Quote
sprevett Posted February 26, 2008 Author Posted February 26, 2008 not many 'against' then....great! Big Phil will give you a ring soon to book it in! Quote
Ian Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 The Nismo sounds great but was a bit too common and too quiet for me Quote

shire350Z Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 one of the best looking exhausts but im with Ian, little to quiet for me so i went for a DC Sports 'true Dual' Quote
Daaave Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 I drove a car without the Nismo exhaust then one with it and I was instantly sold on the idea. It's loud enough for me, especially at about 3k RPM on the motorway. Quote
Toon Chris Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 one of the best looking exhausts but im with Ian, little to quiet for me so i went for a DC Sports 'true Dual' Dare you reveal a price for that? I like the slightly smaller final boxes than the 5zigzenen thing-that-I-can't-ever-remember-how-to-spell, and a true dual sounds right for a V car I need to part with cash in the next few weeks < hears ping from Big Phil's Radar > Quote

macca Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 I still can't work out which exhaust I want to put on my Z. I keep thinking of going for the Nismo for the 'safety' factor knowing it wont disappoint but can't help want to try something else. Need to hear some of them I guess. Anyone for Phils on saturday with an exhaust I can listen to? Quote
