Exhaust Pipes

It appears that my left exhaust pipe hangs a little lower than my right by about 1/4 inch. Is there a way to adjust this myself without taking it to the dealer?

riverside infiniti had this response:

"There is no adjustment really for the muffler section. It could be something simple as a rubber hanger beginning to wear out more on one side, and might require replacement to fix the issue, howeve if this is the case, it is very inexpensive to do so."

F riverside infiniti, those guys are complete idiots. You wouldnt beleive the little side problems I had when they replaced my first engine due to oil consumption and then that engine blew up at 300 miles!

Imagine a dealership pulling your car around and you get it and it makes a terrible vibrating noise at anything above 3k rpms. My exhaust hangers were tweeked and they were gonna let me drive off with the exhaust resting on the center frame brace. The tech said he even heard and felt the terrible vibration when it came around but he didnt say qnything!

normal. Go take a look at a lot of G35's/350z's and I doubt you'll find many with perfectly alligned tips. The fix is to manipulate the exhaust hangers.

My oem exhaust was uneven I thought, but with Nismo harder rubber bushing hangars and my Amuse exhaust, everything lines up quite evenly.

take a hammer or a screwdriver and either push up or pull down the hangers accordingly. This isnt rocket science guys...

I had this problem with my 05 g35c and it bothered the hell out of me. I finally had the dealership look at it and they said it was normal because of the rubber bushings breaking in or something like that. Apparently from what I was told it is unavoidable and there is no real fix. Go aftermarket?
