I' considering buying a Nismo exhaust for $400 without shipping. The only catch is that it is missing the Y-pipe. I'm looking for some advice on the following: can other Y-pipes work with the Nismo exhaust and if so, will they affect its sound? and is it going to be more cost effective to either by a Y-pipe for this or to just get the complete system somewhere else. Thanks.

 

yes it will work. Actually...alot of the members here have switched out the y pipe because alot suspect that the y pipe is the reason why the test pipes/HFC crack.

 

You can probably find a complete nismo exhaust for around $600-$700.
It will cost you at least another $400 for a quality y-pipe.

I have run both Test Pipes and now HFC's.. No issues what so ever.

 

^^^i have nismo exhaust too. With every part. I also run Berk HFC. No problems for me either. Im just telling him what many have said

 

ive only got test pipes with stock exhaust and y pipe and the pass side test pipe cracked the other day..i suspect it was from the flange hitting these crazy Floridian speed bumps

 

Thanks for the advice. I will hold out and buy a complete setup.

 

Where the hell?! Please direct me in the direction where you found it for that much. im looking for the lowest price on it!
