I feel your pain.

Try ordering a part from a Nissan dealer...I waited a month for the hard clutch fluid line. I know it's not back order, but when I found all the parts I needed for my 5 speed swap it took the guys at the salvage yard like 2 weeks to pull it all off the donor car. Had to be the longest 2 weeks of my life.

yeah i think one of the only exhausts in stock are like the .... apex n1s lol.

i can care less about paying 500 for a piece of mandrel piping... rather just get one done at a muffler shop to my own specs for like 35-50bucks. that way i get it on the spot too. its so cheap that it'd cost more to ship a 9-10feet long jdm exhaust than the make one custom haha

I tend to pay with credit card and pay the bill off when I get it. I almost got screwed on my coilovers because they charged me before the exhaust was on backorder. Just a word to the wise so you don't get screwed on a big purchase.

YOUR stupid as hell. You realize when you pay $500 for an exhaust. You are paying for engineered and flow tested exhausts that are proven to help out the car. You go to a muffler shop to get some crush bend crap, the mexican bolting your exhaust on has no clue on how the KA flows and crap.
