My understanding is that it will fit. You just have to take a ball peen hammer to your FI pipes for five or six minutes, and also break off all the heat sink vanes on the right side of the Z1 diff cover, if you have one...

I'll shoot you one tomorrow.

Old thread...but just posting a response that Z1 gave when asking about fitment issues with aftermarket exhaust...here’s what they wrote...

Z1 Motorsports:
We have had no fitment issues as of yet with any of these exhausts. The only contact we would assume would be if the exhaust is not properly aligned before tightening leaving the exhaust being close or touching the brace however, as long as the exhaust is adjusted and installed properly you will have no fitment issues.


Thank you for your question. If you have any additional questions, please reply to this message. For fastest responses, please do not change the subject of the email.

I just ordered one last week. OEM diff cover and Invidia Gemini. I should be ok. :ugh2:
I wouldve gone with Performance Royalty's brace, but they cut out too much material for their logo.

LOL, MA had to mod the crap out of mine just like Rusty did to his.

Yep, Z1 is full of ****.

Z1 will never post my review. I e-mailed Spence on it a couple of times. Never got back to me. :shakes head:

It’s a good thing you posted your review up on here for others to see. TY. I was literally gonna pull the trigger on this before I saw this thread.

I have 2 of the braces sitting in my garage that belong to other members. Getting ready to mod them.

I ordered a brace from bell raceworks and they sent me one for a 350z. I emailed them to let them know and to their credit, they replied within a couple hours saying sorry and theyll send me the right one that day. Their customer service has been a hit and miss from reading their reviews.. we will see.

Nice thread. Looks like I won't be buying this for my rear. Guess I'll keep looking for options. Miss my old CIN motorsports diff brace on last 350. Perfect fit and cheap. Gotta be a way to make one similar

Got an email confirming shipment of the correct brace this morning. :tup:

So here is the brace that Bell Raceworks sent me. I ordered these direct from them and not Z1. Looks different from what Ive seen. I havent been able to even test fit, but Rusty says it should mount by the mid link pivots. The Vbrace might be in the way as well as not knowing how it will clear my exhaust pipes. Ill post pics whenever I get it installed.

That looks nothing like mine (that Rusty needs to modify)
