I doubt you'll find anything at all that cheap for a G35, never-mind a good one. A good G35 exhaust, just cat-back will run you easily upwards of $800, just to buy the parts..... some are as much as $1700+. I don't know if you intend to install it yourself, but if not, expect to spend another $100 + on installation.

If $400 is your budget, maybe you can go to a local shop and have them fab something up for you, but your best bet is to just save up until you can afford a legit G35 exhaust.

For under 400 you can get the godspeed HKS replica off ebay or amazon. I have it and after replacing the gaskets it sounds and is great. On the car for over a year and no issues

No, no and no he clearly used the word quality! There's nothing quality about any of the replicas, he doesn't need more headaches. With your budget you can buy a replacement muffler from Magnaflow and have a few $$ left over after install....Gary

for under 100 you could do the muffler delete it sounds amazing...just go out and unbolt it and see how it sounds...if you like it take it to the muffler shop and have some pipe run with tips on it

Keep an eye out in the used marketplace. Some good exhaust have been sold for cheap.

Lol I love the whole has to be a super dooper hyped up name brand something to be anywhere near decent. Grow up, just because something doesn't cost a ridiculous ammount doesn't mean it can't work and do its job. Have fun overpaying for everything. Or you can read some reviews and make an informed decision that can save you a lot of money.


Oh and no, no, and no, he CLEARLY did not say the word quality.

I agree, I have a HKS replica dual exhaust which I got for 500$ including shipping and 100$ install, in my opinion it is the best deal for multiple reasons. I have had mine on for around 4 months now and have had no problems whatsoever, great deep tone and NEVER gets raspy and my favorite... noticable horsepower gains of at least 10hp at most 15hp, since I've had it I got a Spectre cold air intake and a Blox 5/8 Plenum Spacer and I am totally satisfied with all of them and the nice hp boost. But like dude said before you can find the same exhaust for under 500$
Here is a video I made( before I put the CAI and Spacer on )

You're right, he posted the word good! If it's not a quality product, how can it be good? You don't need to spend a fortune on an exhaust system, if you don't have the $$ keep what came on your coupe/sedan. That's way better than installing a POS replica that might not fit or leak once it's installed. My attitude is tainted because I bought SLICK off the showroom floor and paid close to $40K after T & L. Wouldn't consider any mod that wasn't an upgrade....Gary

Thanks, soon im going to order a magnaflow x pipe for it to reduce drone and help with the sound but for now I love the setup. The spacer and CAI helped my engine breathe better for sure but mostly only noticeable in higher RPM's. I wish I had a better video of this shitty catback exhaust these people talked my dad into getting while I was out of town, because the difference is like night and day, my old one ( not stock ) was SO raspy I felt like I was driving a 4 banger lol but good luck with your exhaust dude, cant go wrong with the HKS or HKS replica's they are both great exhaust systems.

True true, but I think he would be more happy if he were to get a replica bc of his price range and from my experience the stock exhaust is no where near perfect in design (especially on my car) lol but for stock it is one of the best. Thats crazy about buying that close to 40k.... That's how I know you love G's.
