Fitment, quality or materials, quality of workmanship.

I had an Ebay Y pipe for almost a year, and never had any issues, when I went to get my exhaust built, the tech said quality was Perfect, and had great welds. ( and I only paid $20!!!!)

I got a y-pipe off Ebay for $120 shipped over 4 years ago, still on the car and had no problems at all with it.

It was made by OBX.

Get the eBay Y-pipe. Replace it later with a cat-back exhaust.

You can probably get a stock y-pipe for under $25 from a member on the forums. Some may even give you one for free.

Umm. No. the Z and the G y-pipe are the EXACT same length. It is the b pipe and the muffler tips that are of different length.
