I have had the Z1 HFC on my z for about 2 months now with zero complaints. Mine do not have the support bracket in the middle pictured in your photo but seem very sturdy and I was impressed with the weld quality so I'm really not worried about it. I have ordered from Z1 many times and always recieved top both quality. I even forgot to tighten one of the spare wideband sensor bung plugs which caused it to blow out on the way home. Completely my fault but Z1 was nice enough to send me a new one with the fog light I ordered a few weeks later

I have had mine for about 6 months / 5k miles. I originally was going to order the Berk HFC, but they were on backorder and z1 suggested theirs. It was less expensive and available.

The quality was as good as you could expect (it looks well-made, nice welds, etc.). I had a shop install them so I can speak to fitment but they said they didn't have any trouble.

On a stock Nismo exhaust it got a tiny bit louder, and added just a bit of rasp. The power difference was immediate and noticeable.
