I ran RHFCs with an 18" resonators in the xpipe on my G37s, but on the Z going with the NONresonated X, the tone/note is even more refined. Rather then a constant tone, it has the refined rumble which IMO is just straight sex to your ears, and makes it like no other exhaust on the market.

Please, I haven't seen ANYONE post a video up with ur setup. Reason I ask is because its intriguing me to purchase tje RHFC just for shites and giggles :tup:

I'll hang one or 2 up as soon as mine comes. Hopefully it is in thr production phase this week. I was going to do a vid review of the exhaust ans some external mic's for the GOPRO. Hopefully the weather will hold out for a track day as well.

I'm wondering... trying to do a lot of research, and don't want to start a new thread with something that is stupidly basic or already covered. :ugh2:

Currently I have Stillen HFCs, Motordyne XYZ pipe and Stillen CBE (all this terminology is new to me). I like the sound of the exhaust at idle, low-to-moderate acceleration, but when I really get on it, it seems VERY raspy to me. Maybe I'm unrealistic in expecting with a good amount of exhaust work that should have been taken care of?

I ran over a curb the first day I got the car (4 months ago) and was worried I might have damaged something, so i got it on a lift today and looked everything over. No obvious damage to any of the exhaust components, and they all look good. So I'm wondering what I can do to get rid of the rasp, but maintain a strong, low rumble. I hate the "bumblebee" sound you hear from some riceburners. What I have now is definitely lower, but still has an annoying rasp at high output.

I am considering buying a set of Fast Intentions LTHs. My ASSUMPTION is that the LTH will replace both my HFC and XYZ pipe? Then I can mount the Stillen CBE and see how it sounds, maybe swap out to something else later if I like?

Like I said, please be patient with me, all this exhaust and suspension stuff is brand new to me, and I am reading my arse off trying to learn, but the sheer volume of info here, while incredibly helpful, is also exhausting. But I'm learning a lot!

Thanks for any help you guys might be able to offer me!

Omg. My wife's stock G35 sounds so much better than my stock 370. Tony, please tell me you are ahead of schedule. I can't wait to hear the Vrooom. I'm planning a road trip down the coast to visit the folks in Florida for thanksgiving. It would be great to hear that awesome exhaust note for 12 hours instead of tire noise.

Thanks bro! :tup: I couldn't be happier with the tone. The sound definition of the non-resonated X is just amazing, and the Resonated HFCs just adds to it rather then taking anything away from the perfect tone.

The largest differences I noticed immediately with power, the shifts are soooo much easier and smoother since the rev limiter doesn't drop as quickly. I had previous experience with my G37 and my FI combo, but when I bought my Nismo, I immediately noticed the lack of low end. The SECOND I drove the car out of my garage after completing the install, the low end TQ was back which resulted in my rev's being that much quicker to shift.

The video was shot with a digital camera just sitting on the ground. I located the spot I wanted record it quite a while ago, perrrrfect for avoiding sound distortion. Its almost a valley which really assisted in being able to hear everything from miles away.
