let me clear this up... im saying that if you really want the HKS exhaust, and can afford the $30,000 car, save the money and get the exhaust. if you cant save up 1200 dollars (in general) you shouldnt be driving a Z. =) sorry that sounded a little mean before...

You act as if it's a porsche. Seriously, a Z can be had for $17,000 now. No use in spending 8-10% of the car's worth on an exhaust which doesn't add much power to speak of (not that any of them do on an NA Z).

Besides, I can think of better use of 1200-1500 for an exhaust (aps, svrt, greddy evo tt).

NOBI quit being stupid, or can you not help it? ..... "rururur urururu if you can't afford buying HKS..rururu rururu rururu"
People are here to check out the system and see if its something of value, unlike your opinion. If you have nothing positive to say then STFU tired of having to read through idiotic comments. You forget that you still drive a NISSAN ...........N.......I ..........S.....S..............A..........N!

i got one... i love it


and the HKS is not overpriced...the JIC semi ti(just ti canister) is about 750

the HKS is pretty much soubling that with dual piping and 2 TI cannisters...so that is 1500 and exhaust sells for 1400 i think the price is fair

Is that you Deisel350?

Biggest bunch of crap I've ever heard. Last time I checked my front and rear emblems said Nissan...

Tuarran - I actually agree that the F430 sounds like a fart can. The best sounding Ferrari's IMO were the 355 and 360 Challenge Stradale...they screwed up the F430 sound but it certainly has the performance

Actually the HKS doesnt have ti canisters, it only has titanium tips.

Correct me if I am wrong - the HKS has screw on tips that are TI - the rest is stainless steel.

edit: 97soupratt beat me to it.

Easy there, a simple: "well that’s your opinion", "you are wrong" or even "you are an idiot" works well. Personal attacks or allusions of such are not necessary. im here for peace and love, and now that i look at it, it was kinda off the wall. my bad. Also Taurran, I was not aware they had gotten so cheap, just shows you how long I’ve owned the car, I was still under the impression It was in the mid to high 20’s!
