Veilside Full Titanium Exhaust 350z
Veilside Full Titanium Exhaust 350z
So i have always wanted to know what this exhaust sounds like, i could not find many sound clips or info on it. Ive looked on many forums and not many people have it, IMO i think the exhaust looks AWESOME. How many people on this forums have it? If you do post a clip of it or at least give some input on it. Reason why am even making this thread is because i just picked one up from one of my friends who bought it cracked in pieces. I found a Titanium Fab place in NJ that said they would help me fix it and they did! I will post pics of the repair when i get home.
This is what the exhaust looked like when i picked it up in pieces and with many cracks
UPDATE these are the pics of the exhaust after being fixed. The guy that fixed it for me did a couple of extra things when he was working on it. He added on a piece by the v crack for added support and also for it not to crack again. He also added material and re welded pretty much every weld that looked weak. Turns out veilside used a very thin layer of material when the exhaust was welded. That explains why the cracks were mostly by the weld marks. Well let me know what you guys think i was very impressed with his work hope you guys are also.
polished up the tip a bit last night :]

have you test fit it yet? I would be worried about it fitting if all the repairs were done off the car. Flanges need to sit fairly flat, clocked right ect.
GJ on the restoration.

yea i was a bit worried about it not fitting but i am fairly confident that it will fit luckily enough the cracks were so clean that they matched up perfectly. Kind of like a puzzle. I just picked up some test pipes and the exhaust will be going on soon vid. clip will be up in about a week or two
Those welds look nice and clean and seems well done. It was nice of them to add braces to the y portion, too. I had my titanium exhaust welded before by a pro race shop and they looked like that.
BTW, I'd expect this to sound like the other exhausts of this design like Invidia, TopSpeed, or 5Ziegen or something but with a slightly higher tone. I bet it'll be loud with test pipes, too.

it sounds pretty deep not loud at all, i just picked up some test pipes may install them before the sound clip. If anyone has an aftermarket y pipe they want to sell pm me
