TomNbk Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 My zed is a Virgin, she has had no modifications at all! This is good, but she's a bit quiet, which exhaust can I put on her that won't break the bank and make it sound like it should? Thanks all, Tom P. S Must sound like a race car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Hey Tom, have a good read through here; http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/56-exhaust/ So many options and it's all personal taste imo plus what might break your bank might not even bother others so you really need to let people know your budget. Also there are loads of videos of exhausts on Youtube and on here but then again they all sound different depending on what camera they've been recorded on, what speakers they're played through and what your hearings like. Tarmac Sports customer exhaust videos; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/60920-tarmac-sportz-customer-exhaust-videos-thread/ Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomNbk Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Budget is as low as possible, would £300 do it? I want a deep sounding exhaust, that gives off a deep burble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a deep sounding exhaust, that gives off a deep burble For £300 you won't get anything other than some cheap cr*p chinese exhaust off eBay. An extra £100 though and your in the Cobra exhaust system price range which a lot of people have & like. You could always check out the for sale section on here though to see if you can find a nice second hand exhaust. Some examples; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/85346-350z-hks-style-true-dual-exhaust-system/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/85045-scorpion-exhaust/ Good luck again.

Level 7 Boss Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I have a scorpion, comes alive over 3k, those in the link a bargains. If you want a deeper sound, you may need to decat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'll have aftermarket Y-pipe for sale (£120+p&p) as of tomorrow! It's used, but just had brand new flexies welded on! PM me if interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomNbk Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Nissan 350Z Scorpion Exhaust Sound: Quite like the noise of the Scorpion, how is it on the motorway, the cobra sounds a bit quiet to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomNbk Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Vlad what make is it, and how does it sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I think it's Japspeed! Flexies were welded on by a professional welder (usually charges £100 per hour...good job he didn't charge me ) and he checked other welds and said its all good! Picking it up tomorrow, so will have pics then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomNbk Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 All things considered, I want v6 burble not rasp so I'm a bit confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) Other way round, Scorpion is quieter than the Cobra. I have a Cobra non res which is fairly loud, no rasp. You don't tend to get rasp until you change the cats for decats or HFC. Has a nice burble and produces little pops and bangs when it's hot. This is with a stock y-pipe (got a Cobra one coming from CS soon, which may alter the sound slightly) I believe his group buy is also still on which will give you a nice discount Edited May 11, 2014 by Jp606 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Regarding sound...since its only part of the exhaust and not whole system - it will make a bit of difference, but not much or very noticeable. Soon of later you'll need to replace your OEM y-pipe anyway as flexies fail on them quite often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I got de-cats, aftermarket y-pipe and scorpion exhaust and I love it! Had many people commenting good things about it as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brillomaster Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 you need a cobra resonated exhaust from CS, sounds lovely, no drone at cruising but opens up over 3500rpm to a gorgeous growl. Best ~£440 you'll spend on the car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomNbk Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I want a deep burble through the city but something that will open up when booting it and not be too noisy cruising, just looking through YouTube video now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Cobra is as you describe YouTube videos don't really reflect how an exhaust sounds in person, best thing is to find someone local to you with the setup you want and have a listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamL350z Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'm in Nottingham and have a Cobra resonated on my Z. Happy to give you a demo if you want to hear it in person before you buy. Adam. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean_1983 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Also have a cobra system fitted and on motorway it's easy to sit at 65/ 70 without any drone and sounds lovely when you want it to Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
