ok.. i really want the nismo exhaust but i dont get the deal with the extention pipe and and all that stuff.. does it still look to short with the extention pipe?? if so do i need to extend something else? plus does any1 have pics n sound clips?

 

you will need to purchase the 6" extension pipe (mynismo.com sells this). in addition, if you do not want it to look tucked, you still need to get it custom extended 2 more inches for it to look right.

 

if you don't do the 2" extension it will look like this:

 

^^this is how it SHOULD look with the 2" extension...

i hope this helps...

 

If you buy the Nismo kit you will get muffler, Y-pipe and mid-pipe. You need the 6" (its actually 8") extension to go from the mid-pipe to the muffler. The tips are too short as seen in the pics. You will need to cut the tips off, add 2-3 inches ( I used a 3" piece so I could overlap the existing pipes) to bring them out to the correct length. There have been numerous posts on this. Please use the search.

 

so if the 6" extension is actually 8 inches...youll need a grand total of 10 inches more?

interesting..i wonder why they call the *" extention a 6" extension...that's stupid imo

 

i did use the search and different people say different things about extentions and cutting and welding.. i just wanted a real answer,, anways so after i get the extention, do i buy this 3 inch pipe or can i just bring the exhaust and the extention to a shop and they will know what to do?

 

take the exhaust to a exhaust shop and they'll know what to do to add on the additional 2"

 

Agreed. The 2 or 3 inches will depend upon how you remove the tips. In my case I grinded the origional welds out to remove the tip then had it butt welded to the tips and overlap the muffler pipe. I think the real key will be to find someone who can weld stainless. That was my problem, no muffler shop would touch it. I finally took it to my tuner to do it.

 

damn cal your so helpful with pics and everything...where the hell do you get all this pictures at...are they on this forum?? well good info either way

 

yep. i get them using the search function

 

arite thanx.. now i just need to buy the exhaust and find a good shop in broward/tampa.. any one know of a vendor who has it for a good price?

 

the nismo exhaust is relatively cheap

ive seen it for 900-1000 (but i don't remember where, sorry)

 

seems like a lot of trouble for an exhaust that (from what i know) isn't even a true dual exhaust system. ya it's nismo, but why not use the money on the Fast Intentions or HKS exhaust systems?

 

some people like the subtle look of the nismo. and some people want to keep the stock sound with a minor enhancement.
