I'm looking for opinions and experience with minor exhaust mods to improve the note of the V36, I don't just want to go loud. I'd like a slightly louder note and used to love the low tone I used to get out of my NA 300zx. As this is a daily I don't want to replace the whole exhaust and make it too loud and I'm not really looking for performance, 235kw is plenty.

I've you tube'd a bunch of clips and am pretty confident new cats will do the trick, and give a nicer slightly louder note. But I want to check with the locals, who agrees? I wanted to get the Kinetix cats and install them with my stock system.

Def the HFC, they give you that little bit grunt in the stock system and makes it more interesting imo and is not loud at all, at normal driving rpm range, you wont even realise the hfc's until you put the foot down.

Edit: Dont buy kinetix or any low brand ones, berks and stillen are the ones to get i reckon

I simply changed my stock muffler to a Megan Racing one for around AUD$560 shipped mid-last year. Gives it a nice note without being obnoxious - exactly what I was aiming for and reminiscent of what I had with the turbo exhaust system my old Maxima (VG30E, not a DE like your Z). Best value for your dollar, I reckon. If you're going to take advantage, now would be the time before the exchange rate declines any further.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
