I love 'em... much louder than I'd expected, but in a fun way.

Nismo catback, intake, lightweight flywheel. Wheels/tires (in the summer) too - running a set of 17s with Nokians for the winter.

IMO, the nismo catback is indeed one of the best sounding exhausts - sure it might not be "true dual" (but for most people they will NEVER need that) and it's not really much lighter than stock if at all, but the sound is incredible.

jvanquish, the song was "Flute Loop" by the Beastie Boys (off Ill Communication).

The video says resonated. Definitely the way to go.

Man your car sounds and looks SICK. Stop making me want to drop more cash on exhaust upgrades, damn it!

That was a very well made clip. Great shots of your car and the best all around shots of the exhaust sound . I love your setup.

I could post a non-music version if it's important. PM me.

re: annoying, it was not that bad until when I hit the debris I cracked a weld on one. now it's annoying as hell... cruising at 65-70 is pretty quiet, not stock or as nice as w/ the NISMO but not all that bad, you can talk over it and tend to ignore it after 5 mins. when you hit the gas lightly though, at those speeds, it's a little drone-ish which is not to my liking, so I just cruise at a higher speed lol.
