What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit?

Ive been looking at the duel tip Tanabe Exhaust for the Z and wish they would make it for the G coupe. What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit our cars? Does it just need to be longer?

Re: What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit?

yup thats my car. it sounds great i think. nice and deep. when under load it is loud, but if you are just crusing it is very quiet. you hardly hear it at all. if you get on it though it is loud and has a very aggressive sound. i couldnt be happier. if you want somemore pics check the link.

Re: What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit?

tips are really ugly in my opinion... is this made by Nvidia the video-card company?

Re: What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit?

i dont think they look that bad. why dont you like them. i got the whole system for free and only had to pay 85.60 for the install. so im not complaining.

no they are different companies, but Nvidia does make videocards. well really the chips for videocard manufacturers such as PNY and Gainward.

i got it for free because this guy with a z had it on his car while he was waiting for his injen ses straight tip to come in. and when that arrived he took this one off and tried to sell it but no one wanted it so he offered it to me.

Re: What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit?

The tips are def a different look...
JM .02 but the double diameter inny & outy pipes don't do it for me.
Although they may look better on the car than the pic shows.

Re: What needs to be done to make a Z exhaust fit?

The "double diameter" pipes is actually a silencer that is inserted into the muffler. I am going to paint mine black, so they are less noticeable. You can't really drive daily w/ the silencers out, as it's way too loud.
