Default NISMO S-tune exhaust & muffler

What's the closest aftermarket equivalent ? Entire system. Sounds the same, deep and not loud. Last thing I want is this damn whiny raspy exhaust sound.

Thank you!

Fujitsubo Legalis R

Downside: no Y-pipe, which is where the S-Tune makes the power.

Y-pipe connects to the cats which connect to the engine. Look at the exhaust closer to the front of the vehicle.

The previously-mentioned Fujitsubo is pretty tame. So are the Invidia Gemini, Borla (both dual). The Revel Medallion is quiet, but it's a Y-back. You could pair that with a nice Y-pipe.

But just to clarify, you currently have a "Nismo exhaust" and you want to get a different cat-back exhaust system? Is your current exhaust an S-tune? If you want something quieter than an S-tune, then OEM.

No looking to replace 2004 with 2008 HR I'm eyeing, and was considering either switching out the exhausts so the nismo goes on the new 2008, and putting the stock on the 2004, or just getting a new exhaust that's as close as possible to Nismo s tune on my 2004. Funny thing is the dealers I've called asking about switching exhausts between both cars declined the job. Is it reslly that hard and time consuming and am I asking too much?

Here is a back end pic of my 2004 exhaust. The yback is that part in the middle where it splits rhe exhaust ?

I wsnt something that sounds just like the S tune. I'm not really too worried about rhe miniscule HP gain otherwise

On the fence about getting the 2008 car but that's a separate topic. Appreciate your help!
