Default someone tell me if this is a good deal...

this guy wants to sell nismo exhaust to me for 300. except the flex pipe is worn or torn. how much would it be to replace that and does it just screw on or weld on?

+1 you can get excellent condition used nismo exhausts for $650. not worth $300 for that.

You can get the gaskets at any auto parts store for $5 each.

Its a good deal, i would buy it. I bet if you cleaned up the mid pipe and muffler, they would look brand new. So all you need is a new y pipe. I got my nismo y pipe used on here for $150 and it was in perfect condition with not 1 scrape on the flex pipes. I pieced my nismo exhaust together..$225 for the nismo muffler, $200 for the nismo midpipe, and $150 for the nismo y pipe. So that came out to what, $575 for a used nismo cat back?

The scrapes really dont matter, there will be no exhaust leak. It would be a waste of $$$ to buy a new Y pipe.
