Yes the Stillen was a bit of a fight to line up, but we got it there in the end.

The lovely note it produces was worth the effort :dry:

I think i have a stainless dual output legallis Cat back for the v35 in the garage. Interested?

Prolly $1000 plus shipping from Melb, Vic ono.

Either that or I fit to mine to see how it goes.

I am not that fussed but thought worth a suggestion.

Hang on guys...don't bag stillen....it was bolt on!!! Took us 5 hrs to install as we were not familiar with the process but it took 2.5hrs to remove...

it was easy installing and easy uninstalling...don't know what went wrong with your install...

and yes, i would stick to the US aftermarket stuff...reason?? VERY SIMPLE.....there are more aftermarket parts for the V35 (G35) in the US than there are for the V35 in the JDM...The Nissan turbo fans never did really accept NA engines as a good platform and stuck to the RBs and SRs.....

So to sum it up, if you want to go aftermarket for your V35, go for Stillen....

Point of reference, my Nismo exhaust took 15mins to bolt on to my Stagea... including time taken to put the car up on the ramps.

Why so quick? Japanese "bolt on" is exact.

In comparison the Stillen took us about an hour and some not-so-subtle persuasion (large rubber mallet) to fit it in place.

Nothing at all went wrong with the install.

Yep, very true, The Yanks definitely have done more for the VQ35 than any any other nation and if you are going to build an engine, the US is where you turn... but for bits like exhaust, suspension etc you seriously can't go past the Japanese for quality, performance and fitment.

Installation of a twin rear muffler setup is not possible without modification and shielding of the fuel system, and removal of tow hook. Carbon canister and breather pipe will come in contact with the drivers side muffler. A local exhaust shop said it would take them a few days and over $1000 to do just mods and pipework (not including mufflers!!) from just the axle back (less than 2 metres of pipe total). Replacing the centre muffler and pipe was a whole lot more $$$ and time.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I'm currently looking at two catback systems that have been mentioned in this thread. The Stillen Gen 2 and the Fujitsubo Legalis R. I know that the Fuji is only a little louder than stock and the stillen is a fair bit louder but between the two which would give the most gains?

I don't expect to have gained 20kw from the system but between these two great pieces of steel which would the majority of other sedan owners prefer.

Also any idea on the pipe size of the Stillen, as I know the Fujitsubo is around 2.75"

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
