Try searching as this topic has been brought up before. I think I read ark cbe might sound similar. There are a lot of different exhausts that sound great such as berks. I had a stock 350z so I know how nice the sound was.

Berk CBE and HFC seem close.

I've heard that the G37 muffler bolted up sounds similar to the old 350 growl.

I removed the cats and installed non-resonated test pipes and it definitely opened it up and increased the volume (with stock muffler). Not quite like a 350, but much better than stock.

ZKraken22, yeah my 350 was stock. I had 170 K on the odometer. It was beginning to really burn oil and I could hear one of the lifters tapping pretty loud so I traded it in on the 370. That 350 exhaust note is a one of a kind ( except for G35 ) sound and I really miss it.

With the different engine, there's no way to get it to sound the same. Just get a CBE, whatever brand you prefer, and enjoy the different sound the 370z makes. I gave up trying to get it to sound like my 02 maxima (I/H/E), the 370z with LTH/CBE sounds pretty exotic at high rpms
