Nismo air system/Nismo Pipes

Agree with you there. I didn't see the midpipe on it was just looking at the muffler setup and it looked identical.

Regardless, there are better options but hey, exhausts are a matter of personal taste so do whatever.

F.I looks like poop from the rear. The S-tune is not being loud it's about Quality!!

The Amuse CBE for the 370 does not have Hpip or Ypip. But sounds sexy and is not to loud. But again sounds like most of you are trying to turn your 370 into a Mustang anyways.

Do what you want but, but having peace of mind is worth more to me then having something loud.

This must be why you're running a fast intentions exhaust in your signature and I don't think many other people share your opinion that it "looks like poop from the rear" but then again, you appear to be trolling so whatever.

What? Who said anything about the Amuse CBE? I didn't even know this existed for the 370 (I know it does for the 350) but I don't even want to see the pricetag on that.

Dumb baseless/strawman argument.

Beat me to it. I'm not the biggest fan of the canister look of the FI from behind, so I had Tony ceramic coat the mufflers black. Problem solved. More power, better sound and still less than the S Tune exhaust. And I've never seen a single negative comment about FI quality. It's pretty much the benchmark for build quality. The only negative thing about FI is the wait time, and that's to be expected with something like this.

And I'm not sure how buying an exhaust that provides more power and a better sound at a lower price point than the S Tune is trying to turn a 370 into a Mustang.

I actually like the way it looks on the Nismo. Fits the rear bumper very well.

It's a better design that way. Less bends always makes more power. I just wanted more of a sleeper look, and bright shiny SS cans doesn't do that. With the cans blacked out, they pretty much disappear unless you know what you're looking at.

If I had unlimited money, I'd probably run ART pipes, Z1 momentum headers, some sort of custom X-pipe and a GThaus Meisterschaft axle-back

Chuck33079 · 08-03-2013, 11:00 AM

I don't think you're going to be hurting for power the way your exhaust is now.

dmhenderson · 08-03-2013, 01:21 PM

Yeah I just like the sound of the GThaus

GTLAW · 08-04-2013, 09:52 AM

My sig was very old and I no longer have that setup. You have a sports car made in japan! So when you start putting parts made in the US on it, it changes the character of the car. I don't expect anyone to understand that, because we on a car form and most people just put what ever they see fit on there car that is loud. F.I makes good CBE! but it's not JDM quality! and the NISMO is!

So if you want to keep calling me names that' fine but again people fear what they don't understand! that's how most people show ignorance!

Chuck33079 · 08-04-2013, 10:05 AM

Wow. Using a made in America exhaust changes the character of the car? We don't buy JDM exhausts because we're afraid and ignorant?
