cookiemonster Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Not the best time for a holiday i know! whatever the next meet is after that maybe . It does look just wish i could get an idea of the sound. Youtube doesnt give me any idea at all. What do you expect to get the price too if say 10 people purchased?

On motorway speed and 3000rpm its a bit annoying....but then again mine is a soft top...so i just put the hood down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I have one now and boy, does it sound good - getting one s/h means I also save on the handbag compensation front - result all round So one off your list now Martin, - as you missed my new trumpet on the Hoon you will just have to get out to hear it in Wales on the 10/11 Oct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomer816 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I rememeber last year fancying one of these and thinking £750 was alot... jeez. Nice bit of kit tho (dam wedding to pay for ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 You can get them for £1100 without a discount from the US (plus add on another £200 import tax) - this includes UPS tracking shipment. This is what I paid for mine only a few months ago from Jim Mills Nissan USA. The exhaust is 100% the best out there in my opinion (for the zed). Its not loud below 3k revs so you can drive around town without getting a headache, however when you want to open her up - its gives a nice loud howling noise (its AMAZING in tunnels - everyone ahead of you puts on their brakes because they want you to go past listening to it). Its not a scream style noise like an F430 Tubi ( ), however it certainly puts a smile on your face - personally I think it should have been standard from the start since the car deserves this kind of noise being a cracking sports car that it is. If any of you are 50/50 of whether to buy one - I really really do recommend getting it. You won't regret it at all - and since it is Nismo (Nissan), you'll have no issues at all fitting it. The quality it very good too - very solid and welded together very well. It also feels like the car can 'breathe' better since the flow of the pipes is smoother - I felt a slight performance difference. viewtopic.php?f=62&t=25823 - pics and write up from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisjones6699 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Oh yeah, I'm going to be driving my Zed to Le mans next may and the tunnels are what i look forward to the most (on the drive there anyway!)
