Hi everyone, I got a question about fitting a 350Z exhaust on a V35 coupe.

I know it can be made (extended) to fit on a V35 coupe. My question is, later on down the years, will it have affect on the exhaust itself (Like wear-and-tear on extended bit, etc.)?

Or any other info would be great.

Thank you.

I had a X-Force system from a 350z made to suit my V35.

Mid section had to be extended 150-170mm and the tips 50-70mm If I remember correctly.

Wear and tear would be the same as a direct bolt on suited exhaust, unless the welds are shit when you mod the 350z system.

I personally never had a problem with mine, and that was on the car for 8-9months.

Thanks, Bee.

Yeah, I read up about this on the net and alot had said approximate 7 inches extension is needed to fit the V35 coupe. I suppose a good exhaust place can make it fit?

Another thing is, I've got a Veilside version-1 rear which comes out about an inch. So I think I will have to get an extra 1 inch extended to look flash at the tip. Does that sound all right? :P

Yep, a good exhaust shop should be able to do it no worries.

Yeah that sounds right.

If the aftermarket rear lip comes out another inch then another inch will def have to be added to the already extended 50-70mm .

Cool. Thanks, Bee.

While we are on the topic on getting a good exhaust shop to make the exhaust fit, would anybody from WA know a good exhaust shop in Perth (I like to have choices. :P )?

Thanks.

Cheaper to buy that extension Victor.

Also alot of the 350z after market exhaust systems come with that extension in the box. Ask around the 350z forum and i'll bet someone has one :)

Thanks, Paul. I might just do that.

One thing is, I think, the extension is not adjustable. Mine's got a rear kit that comes out an extra inch. So I might have to get customised or something to sit flush at the tip.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
