Also the turbo is the lowest point. The manifold passing under the tranny is but I don't think Zs should have an issue.

If you are keeping the stock nismo exhaust you'll need to have the downpipe custom fabed to mate up since the y-pipe on a nismo is double flanged at the mid-pipe.
I've already got a Fast Intentions exhaust system installed. Would that require any custom work?

It shouldn't but I'd call Tony and ask them if their lead pipes are the same for both nismo and non-nismo.

Or just PM them on here.

Edit - easier way would be just to ask them if there's any difference between exhausts for each type.

No there would not be any customer fitment work needed. The BP kit is made specifically to fit with the FI exhaust starting at the midpipe. The lead pipes are completely deleted.

To answer your question, the Nismo FI exhaust vs the non-nismo is exactly the same besides very recently the started extending the tips for the 2015+ rear bumpers.

Good to know. I was pretty sure that it was all the same from header flange to muffler but not having either car nor personal experience, I didn't want to say for sure.

I do know personally that the Z and G exhausts are definitely different.
