Sentra Exhaust

[BNasty]

Hi im new to NICO,I have a 05 sentra 1.8 i was wondering if the Exhausts for the spec v's would work on the 1.8, and if it does does anybody have any good suggestions, i want one thats really loud... i was lookin at the Greddy TI-C, so yeah any suggestions would be great, pics would be cool too.

First off, welcome to NICO!

Second, they fit but the hangers are different, so you'd have to have an exhaust shop cut and re-weld the hangers. Probably be about $50 worth of work.

Third, check out The Exhaust Thread in the Table of Contents. We have a few clips in there.

Honestly, getting a really loud exhaust that doesn't sound like a swarm of bumblebees is tough. That's not to mention that the droning while cruising would be obnoxious.

That said, my personal preference is the BRM exhaust, which has a direct-fit application for your 1.8. You could run a smaller resonator (I think there's a 7in option) and it'd be plenty loud.

[BNasty]

do your (or anybody else) have any suggestions of what shop i should use, should i go to a plpace like Midas or What?

[nametakennow]

For just having the hangers rewelded? Any exhaust shop is fine, even Midas should be able to do it.

or you could also get the hks catback for the 2.0, which will fit your car as well

[nametakennow]

^Aye, definitely shoot for a direct-fit exhaust, it's much easier that way.

I still have yet to find a good video/sound clip of the HKS.

[BNasty]

so the HKS catback would be a direct bolt on so i dont need to get the hangers cut and welded like the Greddy TI-C could anyone give me the link for that exhaustIm jus curious why would the hangers be different on the 1.8 than the spec v its still the same chasis and frame essentrially

[nametakennow]

Right.

I'm pretty sure our sponsor Sport Compact Only carries the HKS. I think I've seen it on Stillen's website as well.

[BNasty]

i was looking at sport compact only and cant find the exhaust which model had the 2.0 should i be searching under the 03 model or what?

[nametakennow]

Exhausts for the 2.0 fit the 1.8.

the 2.0 came in the 2000-2001 SE.there is also a great price on the exhaust in the vendor section of b15sentra

I highly reccommend the HKS Super dragger for the 2.0 you want loud you gotta get this cat back, I love the way mine sounds with the headers, high flow cat, and this cat back!!!!

actually the hks is fairly quiet compared to most on the market.

[Jaylyons1]

What about more of a quiet exhaust. Im coming from a subaru background and I'm really not a fan of the typical 4 cylinder exhaust note. Is there a decent exhaust that is still relatively quiet. I don't mind a deeper tone, but not loud. Had enough of that with the STi.

*ninja edit*

oh and its a 96 1.6L I4... so any references would be great. Ill be searching!

[nametakennow]

I believe B14's hangers are all the same, so 95-98 200SX SE-R (along with 95-99 Sentra) exhausts should fit you, Jaylyons.

That said, I'm always partial to BRM, but it's a matter of preference. I don't really like the high-pitched exhaust notes.

However, as higher pitches go, HKS and Greddy seem to be the cleanest (not too much buzzing).

[b15chik]

god damnit the hks isn't loud it's very low and deep.

anything is going to be louder with a header, LOL. dude on b15 with a header had a dB level of only 97.4 which isn't really bad.

[nametakennow]

You're right, the HKS is fairly deep. I never said it was loud though.

It's just the Greddy has the kind of sound people expect out of a 4cyl, but without all the bumblebee effect.

I don't mind a deeper tone, but not loud. Had enough of that with the STi.

yeah but wouldn't that be a byproduct of the Boxer oriented Engine?

[nametakennow]

The pitch has more to do with displacement and other internal issues. The distinguishing factor with horizontally-opposed engines is the "rumble" rather than the pitch. They sound pissed off as Hell. I love it.

[Jaylyons1]

yea the high pitch sounds & buzzin is what drives me crazy. Might be selling it soon anyway. Just wanted to try my luck at buying, fixin up a bit, and reselling. ^_^
