Ebay link to it, i bought it from these guys it showed up within the week, probably 3-4 days so i had no issues with shipping. It fits perfect.

I have been reading everything Z-exhaust related written on this board, and it has taken me much more than a month (some threads are so good, you'll find yourself referring back to them). From what I've learned, there really isn't enough of a difference in performance between the worst and the best to warrant all that reading and nail-biting. 
After all that, I am going with the NISMO for the following reasons:
1. Stainless
2. Dealer-installed and factory warrantied
3. I do not want a "loud" exhaust
4. I want to keep my car as "Nissan" as possible
5. It is the only exhaust I've found that, in every test, does NOT lose any low end torque or hp, while still yielding an increase in the power band. I don't care how much hp an exhaust ADDS (because the differences are hardly significant), but I refuse to add an exhaust that makes me actually LOSE power in any amount between 1500 and 6500 rpms. It is perhaps just a "principle thing," but I refuse to spend time and money to have less power on the low end, regardless how little. With the NISMO, you keep your low end torque and power throughout the entire RPM range, and gain some at the top end. It does this without making you a spectacle of noise pollution on the road.
For that, I'll gladly sacrifice a few extra bucks and even 3 hp on the top end.
If I wanted LOUD exhaust, on the other hand....

Good Deal Brother. I really like the sound of my Nismo as well.
