I'm not sure exactly what your quetion is....

There's only one NISMO cat back exhaust for the coupe. The picture on the top is not for an altima exhaust. Looks more like a G35 or 350 to me.

I thought the coupe NISMO exhaust had a single muffler with two tailpipes like the stock setup.

I see it for 773.00 at leeparts.com but I don't get around much.

I know there are a few nismo owners on here. Inputs? I have had the same question as to why there are two different pictures of this thing floating around on the internet. Our stock muffler is a single cannister setup shown at the top, and some pictures of the tips of the nismo exhaust have led me to believe that the setup is indeed the first picture (even though the angles and such lead me to believe it is a 350Z setup that is actually pictured.)

I believe the second one shown is the Altima SE-R (05-06 of course), because the applications available on leeparts include specs for said 3rd gen altima.

This is pretty confusing. Hopefully someone with a nismo catback actually installed on their coupe will be quick on the flash with their digicam and hook us up.

Word.

I'm pretty sure the top one is for the coupe, while the second one is for the sedan.

Top one cannot be for an A/C. The pipes are setup for a RWD vehicle, not a FWD with a transverse engine.

The top photo is close to the coupe's. I have it installed on my car. It only has one muffler and a straight pipe coming into it. The bottom is for the 02-06 sedan's. I love the sound of it. Although it makes me waste more gas, cause I always wanna floor it now.

Thank you guys much for the clarification. I almost want to motion for this to be stickied in some form. It's frustrating that out of every vendor I've gone to for this exhaust that NONE of their pictures accurately depict the setup of this exhaust.

Its somewhat obvious that they are not for the Altima Coupe by looking at those pictures. First picture includes a y-pipe, which is most likely for a Z or G. Second picture is an older generation for an Altima.

They need to update their pictures or put in a note.

It would be nice if they made a Nismo Weldina exhaust version. Looks sexier and better quality.
