Carlito seemed to want one, so i offered it to him at cost + shipping

don't really want to go to the hassle of hacking anything to make it fit

After adjusting my fast intentions exhaust cans will clear on lowest setting of diffuser. Front bracket needs to be modified (narrowed) to fit in between exhaust pipes. Relatively minor. Dont sell just yet. I will post pictures when I'm done. Only limited time to work on it.

Nice to hear some good news on this!

When you say modified the cans, did you mean return them to "normal," since i believe yours were modified?

Since the cans are hidden with the diffuser now. You can take a BMF hammer to the cans for clearance. :ugh2:




I hope no one does this. I bet it has crossed a few minds. :icon14:

Drivers side muffler sat about a 1/2 in lower to clear fins on nismo differential cover. I cut the fin off and raised the muffler to match passenger side muffler.

I ran over an alligator (tire tread) on the interstate and dented one of my cans on the backside. Problem solved.

Well...I went by the shop this morning and there is no way the diffuser is going to work on my Z. The muffler can hang way to low. So they will be up for sale in the near future.

Cut the diffuser to fit around the cans. Or straight pipe it.

Thanks for the offer. But I think I could make my own. Because of the cans and the diff cooler. I would have to design it around those 2 things. From the pictures I've seen on the diffuser. It mounts in front at the same spot as the diff cooler. I would have to have an opening in the center of the diffuser for the opening of the diff cooler.

I have a couple of ideas up my sleeve for having one built. The first has come with a hefty but fair price to do a custom build. Like many things if there is more than just me doing the purchase I'm sure the price would be less.

Do yours hang that much lower than the normal TDX due to being 3"? Just wondering since secondnissan's clears minus the bracket and you say that yours won't fit at all.
