Hi everyone, I got a question about fitting a 350Z exhaust on a V35 coupe.

I know it can be made (extended) to fit on a V35 coupe. My question is, later on down the years, will it have affect on the exhaust itself (Like wear-and-tear on extended bit, etc.)?

Or any other info would be great.

Thank you.

I had a X-Force system from a 350z made to suit my V35.

Mid section had to be extended 150-170mm and the tips 50-70mm If I remember correctly.

Wear and tear would be the same as a direct bolt on suited exhaust, unless the welds are shit when you mod the 350z system.

I personally never had a problem with mine, and that was on the car for 8-9months.

Thanks, Bee.

Yeah, I read up about this on the net and alot had said approximate 7 inches extension is needed to fit the V35 coupe. I suppose a good exhaust place can make it fit?

Another thing is, I've got a Veilside version-1 rear which comes out about an inch. So I think I will have to get an extra 1 inch extended to look flash at the tip. Does that sound all right? :P

Yep, a good exhaust shop should be able to do it no worries.

Yeah that sounds right.

If the aftermarket rear lip comes out another inch then another inch will def have to be added to the already extended 50-70mm .

Cool. Thanks, Bee.

While we are on the topic on getting a good exhaust shop to make the exhaust fit, would anybody from WA know a good exhaust shop in Perth (I like to have choices. :P )?

Thanks.

Cheaper to buy that extension Victor.

Also alot of the 350z after market exhaust systems come with that extension in the box. Ask around the 350z forum and i'll bet someone has one :)

Thanks, Paul. I might just do that.

One thing is, I think, the extension is not adjustable. Mine's got a rear kit that comes out an extra inch. So I might have to get customised or something to sit flush at the tip.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
