Default Obx X Pipe

Hey everyone, I know there's Tons of old forums and hating / disliking but to each his own.. I just have a quick question.. I've seen a lot of the Obx's with Y pipe but i've never heard of it with a X Pipe.

See here : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ht_2165wt_1165

What do you guys think? Also its a Nismo knock off correct?

For that price, probably not 304 SS, more likely 2XX SS. This is usually the catch with these knock-off exhausts. Each vendor says 304 but they're probably just copy/pasting from another seller or taking spec at face value from the supplier who is not being 100% honest about the material. Without some special equipment, it's very difficult to tell 200 series apart from 300 series. Bottom line, it will oxidize faster in the elements. Not a deal breaker, just pointing out that there's no such thing as a free lunch

Yup. Spray it down with some type of rust protector and you should be good.
