Anyone run this ebay exhaust?

mr_sparkle · 03-16-2011, 12:22 PM

So I've been thinking about getting an exhaust and while I absolutely love the HKS HiPower exhaust, it's kind of too much dough to spend on an exhaust.

I ran into this on ebay:

2009+ NISSAN 370Z DUAL CATBACK EXHAUST VQ37DE 2010 2011 - eBay (item 250736712428 end time Apr-01-11 20:54:41 PDT)

I think I already saw a post somewhere about a guy making fun of the fact that they write it's for vq37de engines. What I want to know is if anyone is running this same exhaust and what your thoughts are about it?

at 665$, this is about a third of the cost of the hks.

I'd spend a couple hundred extra bucks on something like the Gemini

mr_sparkle · 03-16-2011, 12:42 PM

Cool.
Let me decide what to spend my money on. Brand name doesn't always mean it's better.

Now can anyone just answer my question - does anyone on here run this exhaust?

OK. I'll tell you to search then. This has been covered quite a few times...

mr_sparkle · 03-16-2011, 01:00 PM

It's been covered many times you say? I can't seem to find a thread about anybody having this particular exhaust, which is why I'm asking if anyone knows someone that does.

Again, you misunderstand the intent of my post - I don't care about which exhaust anyone thinks I should get, or which brand is better, has more gains, sounds nicer, or whether i should spend an extra $X.

I'm simply posting to see if anyone on this forum runs this exhaust so that I can contact them.

I say get it! I have the HKS but I know that it is priced way more than it should be. The eBay one might be a good value and if it isn't, I am sure you will be able to sell it to someone else.
...and don't forget to review it for us!

Ive never seen it before on here. Id like to see some installed pics though.

This exhaust retains the stock exhaust pipe diameter and claims a 28whp increase? LOL.

most of the sellers feedback related to exhausts are comments that claim the parts don't fit.

LMAO at the dellers user id. I'm interested in results as well, but I got a feeling this thing is going to be pretty tame.

ilovetacotaco so so much much

CrownR426 · 03-16-2011, 03:57 PM

Yes, I'd go for the Invidia Gemini as well.
For 900 shipped its a true dual with burnt tips which I think is an awesome deal!
Invidia is well known in the subbie world.

This is stupid....for that price you can get a custom one made at your local muffler shop (search) that you know will fit and will flow....the only thing you won't have much control over is the sound. Just mandrel bend 2.5" all the way through and use good quality resonators and you will be all set. You will have something no one else does..

If you are at all interested...I'm going to be selling a set of slightly used Stillen headers and Berk test pipes in the next couple of weeks....Probably like $550 shipped for everything...
