Hi guys

I have notified Motordyne of my interest in this exhaust system with the ART Pipe though they say it will cost me $575U.S shipping cost. That will make it about $2600AU in total for the whole system.

Are there any other systems like Stillen or HKS that are good exhaust systems for the V35 coupe.

Let me know your opinions and price of the systems.

Thanks

Quite sure MD TXD V2 is the best sounding exhaust for our engines by a long shot, also thanks for doing research for me i'm strongly thinking about saving for this exhaust i've heard amazing reviews.

Also did you beat the price down at all on the exhaust system/freight price?

Was that for sea freight though? I'd exercise some patience and get it shipped by sea to help reduce the cost even further.

Do they even make this system at all for the G37/V36? There doesn't seem to be much on offer for that series on their website.

I would agree, it doesn't make much difference having it a couple of weeks earlier. So best to save yourself some money and be patient, just as long as you get it. $575 is a fair and average price for shipping CBEs from the US.

I'm pretty sure its been made for the G37/V36 as well at the time of development and release for the 370Z. Motordyne are the only exhaust system on the market that is modular in design and can fit both Zs and Vs or Gs. The difference is the 8" extension pipes, which is how much longer the G or V is to the Z. But it is best to contact and ask them directly to be sure as always, though I agree there website is vague. Contact them or Tony through the website, g35driver (under Hydrazine) or facebook page.

are you going get the XYZ y pipe as well with that?

The XYZ pipe does come with the system, thats why its called CBE (cat-back exhaust, from the catalytic converters back to the end of tips).

maybe try one of the forum sponsors on G35Driver.

+1 You can get the products from some of the vendors there, but Motordyne (Tony) is on there under Hydrazine.

there's a few out there that wont break the bank...

I had a exoticspeed which i think cost 1/2 that for the motordyne and shipping included) also included y pipe

i later bought some 100 cell cats i think they were ERZ or something like that i forgot the name, then the whole thing sounded like a monster, especially through tunnels or under bridges etc...scared the ba-jesus out of people...

also iv heard a few clips of the invidia exhaust which sounds great.

HI Guys

try www.Shipito.com i use this site for things not allowed to ship out of the US like Burton snow gear.

there is a shipping calculator on the front page you would need weight and dimensions to get a relatively accurate quote.

Cheers

EDIT:

i should also mention when you sign up you get an address where goods can be delivered in the US (so if you can get free local us shipping to the address provided this would save on some cost) then the shipping calculator is from their warehouse to you.

this one? http://www.erzperformance.com/ERZ-performance-CNT-RACING-03-06-Nissan-350z-G-p/20-8387-e.htm

yup thats the one, had them on with stock exhaust and y pipe after I sold the exotic speed exhaust i had and it still sounds tough. and with the exotic speed exhaust and y pipe (comes as a combo) it sounded like a monster.

deep sounding no rasp yea? with ERZ cats

@TheMax this was fedEX Economy shipping. I have asked for freight cost of getting it shipped by sea. yeah true i sont mind if i get it in a few months though would be good if freight was somewhere about the $200-250us mark.

Will update when i get word.

@Ezy03 Just heard a clip of a g35 with exoticspeed R1-t Exhaust it does sound deep. Sounds very similar to the MD TDX2. And this was with the muffler and midpipe, stock y-pipe and stock cats.

Cannot copy the link but i typed 'G35 ExoticSpeed R1-T Exhaust' in Youtube.

Keep in mind bro the sound you hear on YouTube is certainly not going to do it justice until you hear it in person.

Sean have you heard both of them? MD TDX2 and Exoticspeed R1-T?

Exoticspeed exhaust system listed here:

http://www.exoticspeed.ca/index.php?cPath=62_96_120_602

And here is the quote i got for shipping of the item to Australia:

s/h to Au we offer flat rate ship by ups expedited 3-5 days for $350

G35 and 350Z are different.

for G35, we also have alternative option which is the RII-Titan exhaust true dual . currently available in stock.

They are based in Canada.

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
