Nick U Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 I want to fit an aftermarket exhaust to the my car, for both performance and the sound. Anyone got any suggestions or know any companys who have a few to choose from. Also has anyone had the Nismo exhaust fitted, would love to know what that sounds like compared to the standard one.

toykilla Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Collections in work. Have some sound clips: http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Part:Dua ... st_Systems http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Part:Exhaust_Systems I personally have the HKS Hi Power Dual Exhaust. I couldnt be happier with it. I previosly had the Borla dual exhaust and did not like it. Quote
Removed Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Hi there the Nismo exhaust (made by Weldina) sounds quite good! good quality stuff too. There's a host of other possibilities too, to name but a few Invidia N1 and G200, Borla, Milltek, Fujitsubo, injen Hks etc. The list goes on.... Have a look at the Exhaust section on our partner's site ZWikipedia on www.350z-tech.com : good info there! I have a Milltek SS exchaust coupled with Kinetix Hi-flow cats and it sounds quite nice now Quote
Steve-B Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Nick. Depends on what sound you want from your car. If you still want hear yourself think then go Nismo or Milltek. If you want to get noticed big time go Invidia. My advice is try to listen to some ones car who has an after market exhaust fitted first as sound clips can be decieving. Quote
Nick U Posted January 22, 2006 Author Posted January 22, 2006 Cheers for your help guys, a lot of things for me to think about and look at. At the moment im thinking i might go for the blitz Nur spec T cat bcak system with HKS racing suction kit. Any thoughts? Quote
Removed Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 actually I haven't phisically heard a Blitz 'zorst so no idea on what it sounds like. Not a bit fan of the HKS suction kit myself, sounds nice though (on vestitas' car) Quote
Revsport Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 I have the Blitz Nur touring and its loud but not too loud. Probn due to its design being very similar to the std exhaust. Its still being broken in tho so it may get louder. Quote
Zilvia Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Bolra, HKS,Invidia.............some of the best.......but there are many more Quote
patto Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I have a mogoose system fitted from the down pipes back and is sounds nice but donst make your ears bleed on long trips . next step is to change the headers and fit high flow sport cats to finish the job Quote
Nick U Posted January 30, 2006 Author Posted January 30, 2006 The mongoose system, does it sound a lot better than the standard system? Basically im after something that give a nice aggressive sound but is not over the top! ________________________ Gun Meatl with GT pack Quote
M13KYF Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 check out the spotted on ebay section. Mongoose for sale. Quote
Space Cadet Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Has any one had the Nismo fitted? Giving it serious thought but want to get an idea of the sound before hand. Quote
Guest prescience Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 NISMO = and more besides. Lovely sound IMHO Quote
Removed Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 yeah I like the Nismo on its own, coupled with other mods might become a bit too loud though Quote
Guest prescience Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Not at all - drowns out and/or complements the S/C whine and BOV a treat. the wife kept looking out alarmed when we were out just after I got S/C done and when asked she said 'keep hearing a police siren' - it was the S/C women eh? Quote
Removed Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 the fact that it "drowns out all other noises" proves my point Quote
astonal Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Collections in work. Have some sound clips: http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Part:Dua ... st_Systems http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Part:Exhaust_Systems I personally have the HKS Hi Power Dual Exhaust. I couldnt be happier with it. I previosly had the Borla dual exhaust and did not like it. toykilla - that hi power HKS "titanium" sounds AWESOME on that website - is that what you have installed? Where did you have it fitted and what was the cost, if you dont mind my asking? Al Quote
Chesterfield Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 The kit that Val (TheMinel) has fitted sounds lovely. Had the pleasure of hearing it first hand (as did the neighbours ). Not over the top during idle or regular driving, but sounded great uner load/acceleration. Had a quick drive to the pub, and could hear it over my standard set-up when we accelerated.. Quote
Removed Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 that will be Milltek+Kinetix Hi Flow cats for you, with a hint of Kinetix V4 plenum and K&N CAI Quote
Chesterfield Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 £££££££££££££ Just what I need with 10K kitchen on the way... Quote
Removed Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 your kitchen was nice!!!!!!!!!!!!! nothing wrong with your kitchen mate!!!!! no need to spend extra money on it loool Quote
toykilla Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 I went with the borla, and was no impressed with the fitment, quality, or sound. I took it off after 2 weeks and sold it. I then purchased the HKS exhaust and could not be more pleased. The sound is amazing. Fit and finish are superb. It is quiet when cruising, but when you mash the pedal, it screams! Quote

What did it cost you/where did yuo haev it fitted please? Is it the same sound as on that website? Quote
toykilla Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 Oh sorry, I missed your question earlier. I purchased the HKS exhaust from www.intensepower.com. In case you do not know, I live in the US. The exhaust sounds very similar to the video/audio clips on my website. Those are what convinced me to buy it. It is one of the more expensive exhausts out there (besides titanium) and around 100-200 US dollars more than the APS exhaust. Quote
