Are you talking about this one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...rdc=1

It's a GReddy knock off. I've heard of a lot of Z owners buying this brand and being happy with it. You just have to come to terms with it being a 'knockoff'. BTW Don't pay $500 for it, I know they're not selling. Give them a call and haggle.

Someone has also purchased this ebay exhaust for their 3.5 A/C... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...A1171 We will know shortly how well it fits/works. It's a lot cheaper.

Hah! That's true. I have seen so many of the $5 fart cans on ebay I'm sure even after shipping, and fabbing up the piping, it'd cost half of the fake Greddy ones.

Haha. While that may be true the majority of the time, I've had good luck with cheap stuff! Cheap r/c motors, cheap ebay header (that works the same to this day as the brand name stuff that cost 2x), my cheap $5 WAI functions as well as a $200 Fujita...

Good fun.

Just remember when the cheap stuff breaks on ya it was made by the lowest bidder thus that is why it was cheap

Oh I know. I'm still waiting for my $99 header and $5 intake to crumble.

Ok fine. I'll give you one.... half point. My Sentra's $60 Magnaflow hi-flow cat busted internally and the little honey comb thingy rattled around inside until I got it replaced with yet another new one. It lasted a year and some, but I attribute that bustage (new word, learn it!) to the cat being dropped after a weld broke mid driving and dragged along for 2 miles until I got it held up with some hanger wires.

Talk about open header head ache. I apparently got 40 mpg on that drive home. (Usual highway mpg varies between 34-37)
