Stock Nismo Exhaust Needs More Growl

TROOPER · 08-27-2010, 08:07 PM

Yeah, I'm excited to get this put on the car.

So if anyone's looking for a Nismo exhaust, let me know it will be available soon

I'm betting on TP's and muffler delete with stock Nismo resonators...TBC...

I have the Stillen HFC ( no rattling) and I just installed the Nismo Exhaust yesterday. The Nismo definitely has a deeper sound but barely noticeable. Things being relative, I find the extra note very pleasing and enjoyable. Itnis just the right "loudness."

you wouldn't believe how many exhaust/muffler I have bought and sold on my other non-Z car. At first, the rumble and loudness was awesome. After a few weeks, "sound of power" just becomes noise. The novelty just dies.

With the Nismo, I am definite it will be a keeper.

Good luck.

cab83_750,

any issues fitting the Nismo exhaust onto a base model Z..?

cab83_750 · 08-31-2010, 11:38 AM

None whatsoever. It took me no more than 1 hr.

FYI, the seller of my Nismo exhaust bought the Berk CBE. From what I understood, they had to made make "some Adjustments" as the Nismo is different from base. Berk did the installation for him.

I just put the Berk TP's on the other day, the bottom end response is quite noticeable, my wife even came home from work talking about the difference! My exhaust sound like crap though! I really don't like the different exhaust notes/tones. If anyone is interested I will be selling my NISMO exhaust very soon as the Stillen CBE gets in.

yea I didn't care at all for the tone the nismo exhaust had with TPs. I only had em on for a few days. But I definitely did notice a jump in power so depends on what your more worried about

Just had my HFC & CBE installed by AAM, they did a great job...

All I can say is..... HOLY CRAP BATMAN..!!

Talk about growl... It's more like "Bark At The Moon"

this bad boy is WILD

OK Guys, here's a quick video clip of the new exhaust.
It's in the original post (at the bottom) of my journal:

That thing sounds wicked...The Indiva sounds pretty close to the Berks...Great choice...

Is it me or does is look like there are no tips? Couldn't really tell since your car is black

TROOPER · 09-03-2010, 06:44 AM

HaHa, no there are tips. They are the single layer titanium tips

ZPhycho · 09-03-2010, 09:31 AM

That sounds awsome, I like that set up alot, think I might do the same after hearing how good it sounds!

It still didn't provide the full sound I was looking for, which I got later by installing the Berk CBE, but it did compliment the Nismo CBE well.

Hey, do you have a pic of your exhaust that i can check out, on the car i mean. Im having an issue with buying a new exhaust because none of them are as nice looking as the nismo exhaust. Also, what gains are tested for with the Berk CBE? Thanks.
