Check out this ebay exhaust for TII

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2444956616

It's 3 inch cat back. Looks a hell of a lot like Corksports.Just no CS badge tached onto the side.

Not going for a bad price either.

The welds on it don't look to be all that great. Don't get me wrong that doesn't mean it's a bad exhaust. Just stating that a good weld should look like coins laying on top of each other. Take a look at an apex'i exhaust and you'll see what i'm talking about. It's a good way to judge quality of a product.

You're all wrong, lol. It's FC3S.org's new cat-back setup

Another way to tell is scroll all the way down to the bottom to see who is hosting the sound clips

Because the web site was linked to
www.ssautochrome.com

Which is OBX. I did notice the website said fc3s.org but I don't think they have any other exhuast other then their carbon fiber type single one.

How good is this muffler. Packing?

Says it fits stock downpipe yet if its 3" exhuast I do not see a reducer on it to mate to the cat. Not that I want a reducer Three inch all the way>>>>>>>

It looks like a CS system to me.
I never buy aftermarket car parts for my FC on ebay. Some of the **** in there looks like itll fall apart in a month.

Those welds look fine! I'm a certified process pipe welder and don't see anything wrong with them except for the color is a little dark. SS welds "should" be shiny silver if done correctly. Also, the welds you see on Apexi and other high end exhaust is done by a orbital welder machine not hand. Although a good welder can weld and it look like coins laying on top of one another, doing it all day that "perfect" is quite tiresome! The welds on the supports on the other hand look a little weak and will probably break after a while, just don't look very strong!

well guys i bought one and its installed on my car already! it seems like a very good quality exhaust to me. the welds are well done and everything is solid. I dont think its a 5zigen tip because it doesnt have a 5zigen logo on it but o well. All i have to say is, if you dont have cats or a resonator, its LOUD. its definitly the a great buy if your on a budget. I def recommend this exhaust. -alex

Not worth the money.... that exhaust system is a very sound or good quality exhaust system and is well worth the money...The FC is one of the last cars to get this type of "catback" exhaust. The FD and all generation Nissan 300's, 240's, etc have had this type of catback for sale on ebay for a while now. all i can say is about time. -Gabe

No, it would be more than double because they would have to build a y-pipe

mine is VERY loud. I have a full 3 inch exhaust with no cats or resonators. I much say, its retarded how freaking loud it is but i like it the silencer does queit it down below 1/2 throttle but past that the silencer vibrates inside the tip and sounds IMMENSYLY bad. like metal grinding against metal.
