Exhaust Pipe Splitting

[suwidji]

Hey all,

Had to get under the car for an oil change, when i saw this!

That's the first pipe coming down from the front end (Sorry I don't know proper terms for all the exhaust pipes). It looks like the pipe is splitting and whatever is inside it, is coming out. Looks like insulation fluff or something?

Anyways, I'm looking at getting a TBE in the not too distant future, but just want to know if this issue will cause power losses, or anything more severe?

Thanks

Is that the factory exhaust? I've never seen an exhaust with insulation like that bore.

So long as you keep an eye on it is should be fine. The only time it will cause a power loss is if the pipe under the insulation splits.

That's just heat shielding. The pipe inside would be fine. stop stressing!

Ok thanks guys! Not so much stressing, just wondering

Yuh, You hear no leak, there probably is no leak.

That's the plan!!

At the moment, I'm pretty sure mine is only a diff back. Tip says "Blitz Nur Spec" and from google searching, it says it's just a diff back. Correct me if i'm wrong lol

Diff back? As in just the exhaust tip?

take a photo of your whole exhaust system for us, since your car is already on jack stands

rear muffler + tip. my car came with a nismo rear muffler but everything forward of the diff was factory.

Bummer, I'd already parked it back in the garage. I'll get it back up in a few days and hopefully you'll be able to tell me what I have

Ahh ok, thanks for the clarification. Can't believe I've never heard that before.
