Do Kuruma Z Diffuser + HKS Exhaust work together

as the topic already says I want to buy a rear diffuser (the one from Kuruma Z) for my G35.I have already installed a HKS Hi Power exhaust.So I was wondering I the diffuser will fit properly with the HKS tips because they are much bigger than the OEM ones.
It would be great if someone could hook me up with a few pictures or infos if this will work before I buy the part.

good luck finding a kurumaZ cf diffuser! There were 5 made, I just bought 1 from O Hella OEM meaning I own 20% of all that were made.

if i remember correctly, the diffuser will touch the tips or be very close to it. I know Calvin had tried this before, but i don't remember if it was the kuruma z diffuser. maybe he will chime in and let you know.

it's a tight fit and there is a good chance it will rub while driving.

not a good idea, IMO.

i dont recall if this is the kuruma z diffuser, but they should all be relatively similar. they are all replicas of the nismo, after all.

thanks for all replies until now.unfortunately the opinions are really different.
hmm maybe I can lower the tips a little bit.I hope Triji will leave a feedback on this thread.

@Calvin

do you also have the nismo diffuser in combination with the HKS exhaust on your car or did you remove it because of the rubbing?
