OBX has a complete exhaust system
OBX NISSAN 370Z DUAL RACE CATBACK EXHAUST SYSTEM Y PIPE: eBay Motors (item 370419990645 end time Aug-23-10 18:12:27 PDT)
What do you guys think? Price is nice, and dimensions sound reasonable... Looks like an Invidia knock off maybe? Anyone have this yet? Dynos? |
You can't beat that price! From seeing how big the mufflers and resonators are I bet it is a quiet system. I say you get it and post a review! Definitely a cheap alternative if you are looking for a CBE.

lol .. $490 shipped for a catback exhaust system? :ugh2:

That said, OBX is so cheap, I was a little bit suspicious of the quality... hence me wondering if anyone had it or was willing to try it. I just might get it if no one else tests it out first. |
dont let price discourage you. I bought a top speed exhaust off of ebay for 440 shipped. Been running it for a little over a month now
|
In the end most systems are Stainless Steel and robot tig welded. A reputable name is what makes the price sky rocket. Don't get me wrong, you do get what you pay for, but for an exhaust.......
I can't say to much, I waited for well over 7 months to get a Berk exhaust. I just knew what I was looking for in a CBE system. But for those looking for a cheap alternative and don't have the extra $$ because of this crappy economy, I say go for it!:happydance: |
Most of the time the price that you pay is into the development and R&D of the product. Quality also plays a big factor.
|
Looks like a very quiet system. I'll probably pick one of these up soon... no need to ever spend more than $500 for an exhaust lol. I was going to weld one up out of pre-made mandrel bends if somebody didn't come out with a decent exhaust for a proper price.
People coming from Evo's and STi's know exactly how inflated exhaust prices are for the 370Z... I'm used to quality exhausts selling for under $600. I got a nice Invidia exhaust for the Evo X for under $400 IIRC... yes, it's not a dual, but it doesn't exactly cost 2x as much to produce a dual-pipe exhaust. |

Will you be doing before and after runs if you pick this up? That would seal the deal for me (and many of us) -- I'm betting this one performs about as well as any of the others. |

I'm not sure when I'd pick this up, though... probably this fall, so no results soon. |

Do you think there will be any fitment issues with this OBX? I know OBX has been around awhile.
It just worries me buying cheaper parts of ebay. I have heard so many horror stories of people buying off ebay and then having to modify the part to fit right. If they could even get it to fit right. Don't get me wrong, I think the exhausts are way to expensive for the 370z. $1-2K is rediculous. Exhausts were $500 less for dual pipes with my S2000. If someone ends up taking the plunge, please post up a review. |

Once there are more 370zs on the road, maybe additional demand might lower prices eventually? |
So true...every time I hear the Saclam I start to think...but then I have to keep telling myself it's for a 370z, not a Porsche, Ferrari, etc...

On that note -- I thought one of the "names" had fitment issues with one of their exhaust parts. I'm guessing this was welded by a robot in China, and that's the primary reason why it's so inexpensive... That said, I don't think OBX looks any more or less reliable than any of the other guys... http://www.obxracingsports.com/ EDIT: hang on... I don't see a 370Z system on their website... :confused: |
