Berk HFCs on Factory Nismo Exhaust *RASP*

KingJoseph

I don't know where you're at in the Seattle area, but my Nismo currently has only the Berk HFCs installed. FI CBE is on order. If you want to hear it, we can set up a time and place to meet up. I never see other Nismos around here (I think I've seen one other in my life); wouldn't mind seeing one of my brothers!

Most definitely we should meet up! The person I bought my Nismo from had Zports in Everette modify the stock exhaust. Its pretty crazy lookin but I likey cuz its unique.

I just installed the Berk HFC and wow! It's sounds amazing. When cold I hear a little hissing but when its up to operating temp. No hissing or rasp whatsoever. I revved the engine fast and hard and nothin... Took it and open her up and sounds awesome. Instead of dumping $1200 on Fi Cbe. I'm gonna get the Lth headers instead for now...

You may know this, but keep in mind three things...

1) Long-tube headers eliminate the cats, so your $$ spent on the HFCs would be lost unless you could recoup the cost via resale.

2) LTHs are a difficult install to do yourself.

3) If you buy the headers and pay a shop to install them, you'll likely spend more than $1200.

It definitely sounds badass, though.

Yeah I was weighing out the idea. I figured if I sell those Hfc at a good price I should be able to get rid of it quick. When i installed them i tried hard not to put a scratch on them and wiped it down before starting the car.
Then for a second I thought I might have that rasp or loud hiss that everyone has been complaining about which I don't want. Also reading through some threads. It looks like the stocks manifolds do a really good job as it is.
I have some new tires on the way and so ill have some time to think about which way to go while I'm saving up. If I end up just running the stock manifolds then my next mod will be my tein suspension setup.
Decisions... Decisions... Decisions...
