I'd really love to hear some clips of this catback with the berk hfcs. Semtex, gonna break out the video camera for us?

Been thinking about this, actually. Problem is, I don't have a decent video camera. One thing I've never really gotten into is taking video. I have an old Hi-8 camera that I hardly ever touch. I could use it, and it'd take good quality video -- but how do I get it from the tape into the computer? Do modern cameras use SD cards or something that I can just transfer files off of like a digital camera? Oh wait.....my digital camera takes video. Maybe that's all I need to use? Not sure how the sound quality will be though. I guess I could experiment later and find out.

Is this whole exhaust 304ss, or just the tips?

I'm assuming the whole exhaust is, but I want to know for sure before I go dropping 1500 large on it.

Exhaust is 409 stainless, tips are 304..

Price currently is $1,260 with $9.95 shipped anywhere in the 48 states

Awwwww

Yeah i think the stillen tips would be much more attractive if they were shaped to the body.

semtex · 03-01-2009, 04:39 PM

I honestly don't understand why some of you are making such a fuss about angled exhaust tips. Even the Nismo exhaust doesn't have angled tips. Here's a pic of Minicobra's Z, and he has the Nismo exhaust. Don't get me wrong; angled tips would be a nice touch. It just seems like such a minor, petty little thing to be griping about to me. Want some cheese with your whine, guys?

Having said that though -- Josh and/or Kyle, do you guys have a side/quarter shot like the one below of the new Stillen exhaust? I think it'd help a lot of guys out to see it from that angle.

Yeah, I prefer these tips to the stock angled ones.

Now, one thing that I am a little iffy on is how far the tips of the Stillen exhaust jut out. If you look a the video on p.1, it looks like they come out further than the Nismo or stock. It might still look okay, but without a side shot, it's hard to tell. Of course, I've already taken the plunge with ordering one of these, so I guess I'll find out soon enough! Would still be nice to see a side-angle pic though. If all else fails, I'll post one after I get mine installed for everyone else's benefit.

Are they adjustable? My Mustang's were, but then again that car had mid-mounted mufflers.

semtex · 03-01-2009, 04:57 PM

I doubt they're adjustable. I had a Stillen exhaust on my 350 and don't recall it being adjustable.

m4a1mustang · 03-01-2009, 05:28 PM

Yeah, most likely not. I'm sure they're fixed.

I have to get on the ball here... I've starting to get left behind as far as mods go

Is the 18whp gain claim including tuning or is that just bolted up with 0 tuning?

Josh@STILLEN · 03-01-2009, 11:27 PM

0 tuning.. and yes this is a bolt-on system, utilizing the factory hangers, everything you'd expect. As with most bolt-ons of this nature, tuning will only stand to have additional increases, depending on the combination of the parts installed, and of course the tuning.

We've had extensive R&D time on the Z's and G's, and put that knowledge to the 370Z. 18hp is a significant gain, and was achieved through exhaustive testing, and the knowledge of these cars/engines.
