JDM nismo weldina exhaust and rear valence

I'm pretty well decided that I want them, but was wondering what u guys think of them (I have an 05 coupe 6/mt DG w/ navi, aero, z tube and nismo air filter element).
The only site to order both seems to be bulletproof and the price seems high and time to order is like 4 weeks? But these would be perfect fit?
Anybody know of the actual advantages of the nismo exhaust over the stock setup (actual pipe diameters, design, pictures, spec's, dyno's, install instructions, personal experience, anything?) I heard 7whp spead pretty clean across the power range?
Do u guys think that that having the rear valence w/out the full nismo body kit, but w/ the weldina exhaust would look ok? If so, do u guys think I should paint it DG or just leave it the black?

The Nismo rear valance and Nismo exhaust should look good together and should fit perfect since both are made by NISMO.....and the two would look good even without the full body kit.....just my thoughts

i'll chime in again on the exhaust aspect....

first of all, it should be noted that NISMO DOES NOT manufacture ANY of it's own performance parts.... Nismo exhaust is made by Fujitsubo, Nismo CAI is made by AEM, i believe the Nismo headers are also the same design as DC Sports (who are owned by AEM), there has even been discussion as to the Nismo cams being a duplicate of someone else's grind.... anyways.....

the nismo exhaust being the same as the Fujitsubo, i can give you the specs on the Fuji which i have..... 76mm stainless steel piping all the way, muffler looks just like stock, only the tips give it away at 4" in diameter they're alittle on the large side, but not "over the top" appearance wise as they're just polished stainless (no outrageous burnt titanium tips on this system!)


the sound of it, like the Nismo, is very similar to stock and most would not notice a sound difference until you get above 3500rpms, where it does take on a more aggressive sound. in one of the original exhaust shootouts on G35DRiver, the Fuji was the only exhaust that lost NO LOW END power and gained especially well in the midrange rpms IIRC, which is where you spend most of the time when you're driving.

the Fuji exhaust can be had for around $850 i believe, with another $450 for the Fujitsubo Y-pipe (the "Nismo" system includes exhaust and Y-pipe as part of their price) which ends up being around $1300 plus shipping. both Fuji pieces can be had with very little wait time from US vendors such as Performance Nissan (mynismo.com), who i believe stock 1-2 of these systems (with expedited shipping i had my Y-pipe from them in like 2-3 days)

i could give you sound clips of mine but i have other work done as well (TopSpeed Pro1 headers and Crawford high flow cats). if you ARE interested in hearing how that setup sounds.. go HERE


now as for the DIFFUSER, check out the thread in the "Body Exterior Styling" forum about the Nismo diffuser on an '05 coupe... in that thread you'll also see pics of the Kuruma G35 Rear Diffuser (same design as nismo) in carbon fiber which is sexy as hell
