Anyone purchase the $135 ebay catback exhaust???

[rjdmmfl1]

Just curious if anyone bought this, and if so, did they have any leaks, or other issues with this exhaust... i'm all for a bargain, but $135 just seems too cheap to me.... I can't imagine a quality exhaust for $135

I'm not just asking to start a convo about them, I'm actually considering these and i thought someone else here had them...

I may just end up getting replacement ehaust tips so that my new bumper doesn't drown out the skinny factory tips...

Yes lol, CoupeVQ35CVT did purchase it and overall he said it was great bang for the buck but he ended up changing the tips to better looking ones:

Hehe thanks mcheddadi, you remembered (or have a quick search finger).

Yup I'm still running that exhaust system in my Coupe. It's friggin awesome for the money. You most probably will need to replace the tips because they are crooked and maybe adjust the bend on one of the exhaust outlets too so everything lines up straight and clears the bumper.

yeah been running it for over a month now.... i absolutely love it... can't believe I was gonna pay $1000 for an exhaust... definitely best bang for buck mod i've done...

*no drone at idle or at highway speeds*nice 350Z type sound, but not too aggressive, just what I wanted*less than $300 after shipping, replacement tips + install

[CoupeVQ35CVT]

Haha you too eh? Nice! Let me see some pics of your tips, what they look like etc.

And you're right about the sound, it's got that VQ sound but not quite, so it's unique on its own, and best of all no drone on highways.

hey doc,

what ebay vendor did you buy your exhaust from? and where did you get the replacement tips? I saw one, but it says it for the 3.5, that should still fit for the 2.5? thanks in advance

actually, although they have different names, I think all of the ones are from the same vendor if they have a single muffler... these are cat backs not axle backs, I do not think they will fit on the 2.5 as these bolt up to our y pipes!

[mcheddadi]

they will fit if you ask a shop to mod the catback pipe. i think 2.5 is shorter . its a really easy job for a shop and if you want to change you tips anyways they won't charge you much for this

i see, maybe I'll do that. can't afford to spend a G on an exhaust system. gotta pay for tuition and books next semester -_-". thanks mcheddadi

Doc,

you got some crazy azz mods. wish i had money to trade mine in for a 3.5, but i can't find any manual 3.5 in white with leather interiors. most of them are cvt

[mcheddadi]

yeah , cvt is like a plague, only few manuals remain lol
