Really looks nice! Sorry you had a douche bag for a mechanic. I'm no mechanic, but even I learned on my only exhaust installation, that you have to put it

I'm no mechanic, but even I learned on my only exhaust installation, that you have to put it together, THEN tighten it all down...check for leaks etc etc....

Not sure what happened there.

I don't know how interested you are, but on Thursday nights, there is a car meet in Lake Worth that is pretty nice. I'm usually the only 370Z out there, though. ^^

If you happen to know of any from Boca Raton south, let me know! I live in Boca Raton, FL.

There is a group called "NISFLO". Look them up on Facebook. They usually have meets every week. They're local to Ft Lauderdale/Sunrise, I think.

Yeah, I'm sorry, too. Well, won't be going there again!

The two pipes also were not symmetrical and after many tries could not get the pipes to sit right. The left canister would hang much lower than the right.

I agree the sound is really nice though.
Sorry to hear that. How long ago did you purchase yours? I did read that in the beginning, they had fitment issues. Everything is resolved, now, pretty much. Buyers just need to be aware that before tightening all the bolts, aligned all the pipes first! lol
