Very nice exhaust!

The photos are very nice too!

What kind of camera did you use?
What kind of post processing did you do?

Glad to see you enjoying it! I hope it got there in one piece, so what do you think of it?

would a 250 sound the same with the smaller engine? I think it sounds like the G35 exhaust and I would want that.

I love it man, thanks. Even my dad likes it and he's totally against modding cars.

Hey Aira, what part of KS are you from? If you're close to Wichita, I really want to hear it in person.
Thanks.

If you like it now, wait til the mufflers are broken in. I think it sounds better than the G35. Get a short ram air intake and the car sounds much nicer. Enjoy your Greddy!!!

This exhaust will sound similar, if not the same. I had this exhaust on my 250 and I can't tell a difference in sound from the videos.

Looks good! Can't watch the vid with sound until I get home, but do you get the raspiness at low RPM's? I had the same exhaust on my old 300zx & had the raspiness between like 2K and 3K RPM's.
