Installed Helix V2 test pipes with Nismo exhaust
Just put on my Helix V2 test pipes with my Nismo exhaust. The sound is definately louder but just perfect. Also hardly any rasp. Definately the best mod for the money ($149 shipped) Will try to get some sound clips but have to borrow a better camera.
The install isn't that bad if you have a lift. Took me about two hours since two of the bolts were rusted and stripped so I had to cut them off. The top driver side bolt is a PITA to get to. Best way is to go from under the hood with a lot of extansions, the rest you can reach from under the car.
Drove the car all day today cause just love the sound and the look on peoples faces. Couldn't be more happy

i installed resonated TP's w/ my nismo exhaust last month. i love the sound. it's loud and mean. driving through tunnels is 1000x's more fun. rev matching is way better than before. i felt the gains. soundclips soon.

While we are waiting for your soundclip, here is my clip of my Z w/ Nismo Cat-back paired up with Kinetix RTP's and JWT Flywheel.
Note:
The purpose of this vid is to provide a soundclip of the Nismo Exhaust w/ Kinetix during different driving scenarios. This vid is NOT to demonstrate the performance of my Z.

there's also a way to make no noise. i would have to launch real slow. gradually gaining speed to cruise. meanwhile, geo metros are passing you. i only do that when there are Po-po's.
