hawkie350z Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 My exhaust broke the other day but I have bodged it for the mean time by welding it back up. Want to buy a new aftermarket stainless steel one. Like the style & sound of the Nismo but bit expensive for me. Was looking more around the £500 mark such as Mongoose, Magnex, Scorpion. The thing really confusing me is the fact the pipes are such different sizes. Scorpion = 63mm main pipe - 4" slash cut tail pipes Mongoose = 76mm main Pipe - 4.5" slash cut tail pipes Magnex = 76mm main Pipe - 4.5" slash cut tail pipes Nismo = ? Milltek = ? Is bigger better, more airflow? I guess bigger pipe the louder the noise? Can anyone tell me the Nismo size as I think I will look at exhausts closest to the Nismo & I am also wanting to replace the Y Pipe really. Looking at the deal with ESR for the last of their Scorpion exhaust but what put me off is trying to find a Y pipe that is 63mm at the end. Most seem to be 76mm? ARRRRGGHHHH PLEASE HELP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xStric9x Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 The scorpion should fit straight onto the oem y-pipe bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLizard Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 im not in anyway saying this is the same with all of them however. the bore at the end of the Y pipe does not necessarily mean that the centre section etc will or will not fit, i have tried k1/nismo/standard on standard and japspeed Y pipe and so far all have fit the gaskets/bolt holes that are needed.

RobD7 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Scorpion is £245 from ESR at the mo, I'd say go with that. I have one and for the price I think they're top notch Sound is too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkie350z Posted December 30, 2008 Author Share Posted December 30, 2008 Just measured the outside diameter of my OEM exhaust on backbox pipe & centre pipe. Both only 60mm. Usually the bigger bore exhausts are better for turbo'd 350z's. pi**ed the ESR Scorpion exhausts (63mm Bore) have now gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
