Hey guys,

has any one had any experience with rusty v35 exhausts?

I'm assuming its a common problem..

If not.. should I be worried?

If any one has replaced their exhaust, (with just say stainless steel) how much did it set them back?

Thanks!

Regards

SC

Hi,

I replaced my original exhaust a couple of months ago with a cat back Stillen stainless for $1100 but it was on special at the time. Freight cost $376!!!! The original exhaust was in excellent condition with no corrosion.

Thread starter,

Sorry to jack your thread, but JohnR, was that freight from the US? If so, can you please PM me with company details etc as I'm trying to get an zorst from the states at the moment myself but freight has so-far been prohibitively expensive...

Also, does anyone with actual knowledge know whether there is ANY difference between the G35 and V35 when it comes to the exhaust so I don't import a useless exhaust from the US of A?

Cheers.

The only thing to worry about, is that some US exhausts will not fit Coupes which came out with rear active steering. Exhausts such as the HKS Hi Power for example.

How tell if you've got rear active steering? NFI

sorry to bring this up from dead.

I dont seem to be able to find any catback exhaust from australia, which makes me wanna buy from the US now..

Actually was gonna the HKS Hi power, until reading NISMO's post about the rear active steering..

So, what else will fit? Fujitsubo? Borla? APS?

Anyone knows or owns one of those mentioned?

by far the best guys in sydney to help you out with a 350Z/V35 exhaust is Hi tech Mufflers in darlinghurst.... these guys specialise in lambos, porsche's all high end work.... for about $1300 you get a top quality exhaust system..... one that has that euro sound... not a drowing sound that you get from most of the cheap china stuff....

Yeh i agree with V35driver, the owner or the specialist there is pretty much straight up wth you and what they have for you, the material and advise is genuine. you will get quality stuff for what you actually pay for. and with that, have you seen the owners ferrari? its gangsta....

Her ya go my friend. hehehe

they do Cat back exhaust also.

a little different with the V35 from 350z, a little expansion needs to be done (piping) since our cars are a little longer.

we talked about the middle piping before on this thread.

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
