dont really have the money to be dropping for a nismo exhaust which is why i was looking towards the cheap alternative of doing a different muffler and test pipes for a different tone. but the nismo would be very nice lol. thanks

The number of possible ways to change the exhaust sound is unlimited. Test pipes will work.

Deleting or replacing resonators or mufflers is a ghetto mod. You end up with ill fitting pipes and slipshod welds.

i know it sounds pretty stupid, however i saw the same test pipes saying 03-08. and another site saying 03-06 which is why i wanted to know if it actually will fit 03-08

The testpipe from 03-06 will not fit the 07-08 HR 350z, unless you change your HR header to the DE header. but no point of doing it. Don't trust the site telling you this testpipe is for 03-09. They know sh*t........
