Default Any Nismo Owners Interested In A Fast Intentions Xpipe?

I just talked to Tony over the phone and he told me that there was interest in this kind of mod for us Nismo owners. The only one I know of is the Amuse Xpipe which is $2000!! Tony said it would be less than that if there was enough interest in this piece. So what do you say guys? Let's start making a list of who would be interested in a Fast Intentions Nismo Xpipe!!

lolz, i spoke to tony about this a year or two ago and just wound up ordering a full FI cbe since he said he'd need a nismo to come in house to do the prototyping etc.

No regrets, love my exhaust but if this had been an available option, I would have just bought the H/X Pipe replacement instead.

I too seriously debated the amuse nismo h pipe as well but just couldn't justify it when I could get a full cbe for same or less $$.

There are other threads on this topic and several Nismo owners have been waiting on this. To be honest since the time has been awhile, I dont know if they are still waiting or moved on.

I am still waiting on this to be produced.

I'm interested! I'd let them use my NISMO for R&D.

What's with the opposition to a full CBE?

Honest question, because it seems illogical to throw down $$$ on an H pipe and leave a heavy and restrictive stock exhaust system downstream.

I want to keep the essence of the Nismo and retain that smooth sound that the Nismo exhaust produces.

This is something I too would like to see. The nismo exhaust is not badly restrictive (except the H pipe and cats) sounds fine without being loud and nothing looks better than those tips.

Word! I was also thinking about 50 state legal hfc from magnaflow.

Is it going to take 6 months to fill an order?

Also, "less than $2,000" is a very large range for an x-pipe. In order for it to make sense, it would need to be A LOT less than $2000. Otherwise, you might as well just save up for a full-on exhaust system.

Sunline Racing makes one for $700. I might go ahead and order this piece.

Sunline looks promising. I might order one too, as well as a center pipe.

Center pipe looks promising but I don't know about the scilencers they have on them. It might not be loud enough. And when and if I do get Meisterchaft, I don't know if it will fit the Sunline Midpipe.
