I believe it is 2030 or so dollars, it is on the nismo package if you seach it. Discustingly expensive but very nice none the less.

Getting the Nismo Exhaust installed tomorrow afternoon, I'll post some pics and a Video sound clip in the exhaust sound clip data base sticky :tup:

Ok, it's installed took roughly 1.5 hours at the dealership.

I couldn't find my video camera battery, I will look again tomorrow and hopefully get a sound clip up.

My review:

1. Fit and finish is perfect
2. Sound (A bit disappointing) if your looking for an aggressive sound, this is NOT the exhaust for you. It has a slightly lower tone at Idle and a minimal bump in volume up through the gears, above 5K RPM it is noticeable, but not extreme in anyway. I would say that if I gave a friend a ride in my car, that had been in it previously, they would not notice the difference. :-(
This would be a good exhaust for someone who is looking for a slight bump in sound from stock. Probably similar to the HKS Legamax
3. HP Gain: It's hard to say, I want to say that it made a difference, but honestly can't say that it is really noticeable, it feels a little more responsive, but I doubt that any one would be able to feel a 10-12hp increase on a car that already has 332hp. Maybe on a lower hp car.

Now, it is brand new, so maybe the sound will get louder after a few miles, once the packing starts to break in or burn off, whatever it does
I'm curious to any 350z owners thoughts on this, did your overall tone or volume increase after a few thousand miles??

My next mod will most likely be an intake and some hi-flow cats/ test pipes, I'm sure this will change the tone significantly.

I'll post some sound clips as soon as I can

Braden - thanks for the write up. Sorry to hear that you were disappointed with sound but I believe some systems need time to break-in

Quick ? - how much bigger is the Nismo tip compare to stock?

My old pipes are at the dealer since they wouldn't fit in the Z, I didn't measure before they went on.

Nismos are 4 1/2 outer diameter, 4 1/4 inner. I would say the stock ones were probably 3 1/2.

If it's anything like the 350 nismo exhaust, it will definitely get louder with time. Looks nice from the rear though, can I ask how much the dealer charged you for the exhaust?

18rgcelica73 02-01-2009 07:27 PM

Dyno that baby. I would love this exhaust but I want to know the numbers of power gain before I go and get it.

Weight as compared to the stock???

$1400+ Tax, and $150 to install. Most dealers should match that.
