Just out of curiosity. ... has any members had a custom stainless steel exhaust made for ther Zed ??. A small outfit up in Fife ( not far from me) called Pipe Dynamics done my V8 Jeep last year and it was only £295.00 ( cat back) an sounds brilliant....... to me anyway, not sure my neighbours agree lol. They also done a resonator delete on my Zed. It had a new stainless fitted by the garage before I bought it but wasn't the noise I wanted, it is now lol.

 

There's bound to be a custom exhaust makers around you and they are usually a lot less £££ than the mainstream sports exhaust prices. I got quoted around £400 for my Zed and they give a lifetime guarantee.

 

Just my tuppence worth........

well tried to get an exhaust sorted but found it hard as i dont use paypal so dont want to ues the fleabay, tried getting phone number for torqen but seems they dont have one listed, so tried tarmac sports but guy wasnt there when i phoned and the fella who answerd phone said he didnt know what exhausts they had for a 350z and told me to phone back later,,

so,, tryed revolution in gateshead who said they could only get half the miltek system they had advertised online which was no good,,, so went online to another place which name escapes me and ordered a buddyclub system got to check out and said card was being declined,,,

so thought to hell with it and got an issue of fast car magazine looked in the dealers section found buddy clubs number gave them a ring and finaly found someone who knew how to do business,,,, phewww what a week ive had ha,, :)

 

...sounds about par for the course in Uk from my experience too - made holiday accom + prof therapist inquiries recently - about 10% response - both my inquiries were stressing regular business - but judging by the rates these people charge, I guess they only work when they feel like it.. - B&B prices, a hundred plus per night?! (£40.000 pa per room from own house....)

well had the buddy club pro spec fitted a few days ago and im very happy with quality, its on the loud side above 3000rpm thats with the baffles in,, but it sounds nice and i can still drive around streets without reving too high,

it must be the newest version as its different from pics online, mine has 4 springs holding y pipe ends,, also has not got the jubilee clip type brackets on end cans, they are welded brackets like on the rest of the system which looks more clean from behind i think,,

also i noticed online pics of the pro spec exhaust were of a dull unpolished piping after the end cans and mine is highly polished right through, anyone else got a buddy club pro spec like this?

Milltek for me. Worth every penny, not sure many zed owners still have them.but 100% happy I have kept mine!

yeah was looking at miltek before i bought buddy club, very nice exhaust, well made with good reviews, only ended up with buddy club as i liked the twin end cans,, pluss it seemed more fitting to have a jap exhaust on my jap import,, ive even left the jap tax sticker on windscreen,, im proud it an import,,, that may sound strange but its true,,,,,
