A&Q about 350Z
Q:
Greetings all,
I've been shadowing this web site for about a year now. When I had my 1990 300 ZX back in the 1997 thru 2001 time frame, I used to be a regular participant. I wanted to let things settle down with the 350Z and in June, I made the plunge. Well I'm back and you'll be seeing me stick my nose in from time to time.
While I've already made the upgrade to the wheels and tires, I'm looking for some views of other memebers. I'm assuming the brothers and sisters in SoCal have lots of insight just due to the strong market, so tell me....
1. Which has a better fit and finish... Veilside front lip spoiler or NISMO?
2. Which has a more raucus sound on a cat-back system... Borla dual or NISMO single system?
My Nissan dealer will sell me NISMO components at 10% over their Service Department aquisition price so they have my attention. I had a Borla system on my other Z and the quality and souund of the package was great. Tell me more. Thanks for your time.

i've ridden in a borla set up car and it sounded bitchen when you got on it.the nissmo sounds pretty close to stock.the idea is to kind of get away from stock.it doesn't improve your horse power that much .so if you want good sounds then go with something that doesn't sound factory.the exhaust system i likje the best is injen daddyphatsaks has it on his it's true duel and looks beutiful under the car.stillen is nice but the extra weight out ways the hp gains.get a subscription to sport Z magazine they had a write up in one of the issues about exhaust.my opinion it's the injen true duel exhaust and looks good with some decent hp gains.easy instal from what i hear.also check out my350z.com and look up exhausts they may have some sound clips for you to hear.good luck and welcome back!p.s get a jim wolfe popcharger or the stillen intake that helps too aswell as the pully.zya

zlion,
Thanks for your input. The pics for the Injen system are sweet. I've got about ten different web sites on the 350Z including MY350Z on my computer, and I've seen the quotes.
Take care and have a good weekend.
