will the exhaust drone with the HFC's? How about the Nismo?
Also, when I'm looking for a Nismo exhaust, are the ones on the websites the same as the ones that come on the Nismo 350z's?? Will just the muffler make any difference?

I actually used the rear section off of a 08 Nismo Z and its a touch louder then stock. Plu the muffler sits up behind the bumper so much better then stock you cant see. Just need to get a exhaust shop to extend the tips for me which are huge.
The most stock sounding, but louder versions of the stock exhaust are either:
1.) Stock exhaust + HFC's (go with Fast Intentions 300 cell or Berk) or test pipes (go with resonated, but either will produce more rasp than HFC's)
2.) Nismo exhaust (you will need to buy extensions and/or have the exhaust extended by an exhaust shop because it is for the 350z)
Here's a good example of a Nismo (with unresonated test pipes) by member Law to the Rence: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uq4ebWAe3CA

Go with the Nismo Vinh, you definitely won't regret it. It has a nice clean sound that is still reminiscent of the stock one without being too annoying.
Test pipes definitely add an aggressive growl to the Nismo & even with non-resonated test pipes, there's minimal rasp (the most raspy point seems to be at around 3000RPMs). At cruising speeds, it's tame and quiet...At higher RPMS, the beast is unleashed and the Nismo screams like there's no tomorrow
i actually got a new Megan Y-pipe since i filmed that vid...so the little bit of rasp it had before has been pretty much eliminated so the exhaust sounds even smoother. If you have any questions, lemme kno!
lol well I just bought an G37 HR Y-Pipe (I know the 350Z Hr Pipe is better, but it's too hard to find)
I'm gonna install that and see how it sounds, from there i'll figure out whether I should go with the Nismo or not.
The problem is that it's too hard to find a used one and new is way too much.

There's no drone with HFCs and stock exhaust by the way.

i think you should install it, and see how you like it first. It should add some volume, might be just enough. you never know
