Im looking everywhere for a louder aftermarket exhaust and my eyes lit up when I found this. I just want to check with the experienced community before I go doing something stupid :P
I do NOT want stock exhaust.

 

yes, it is

 

if you want louder have muffler shop replace everything fro the cat converter back to the muffler and or the muffler to with a straight plain pipe. It might need "bungs" for the O2 sensors.

 

Yes, that is stock replacement.

 

I have an HKS Rear Section available in the classifieds section. It has less than 500 miles on it if you're interested. I'm asking $225 but I'll entertain any offer. The part number is 3302-EX082 if you want to research it. They normally go for $400 or more.
Thanks Brian

 

Would I need a bigger exhaust pipe back to the cat or is there a way to custom build that to fit your rear section? I am definitely interested. Please lmk

 

There's many options you have with exhaust. Yes you can make your own cat to axel back section. You can also buy a full cat back system. Do some searching around on here and you'll be amazed at what you find.

 

Mattx, yea im fairly helpless so far trying to learn this car. Its almost embarrassing asking for help on this forum however its greatly appreciated Any suggestions as to what i would get to complete my exhaust from the end of the HKS to the catalytic converter? Would help me a lot

 

I'll be honest. No offense to the guy selling the rear section hks but your in need of a complete cat back. Since you have no experience with this car, you need to just buy a cat back. How much are you looking to spend?

 

My hks rear section bolts directly to the stock intermediate pipe or you can have a custom pipe built if you prefer. The hks definitely adds character to the exhaust tone and is noticeably louder than stock.

 

@12maxman id still need the rest of the catback. The entire pipe is rusted :/ i could probably find just the piece from the cc to where the hks connects. Ill lyk what i can do. I see my mechanic tomorrow

@mattx yea i need the entire catback. The pipe is rusted and its already pretty loud (somethings messed up down there lol) theres a bit of backfire when i rev up to 4-5k rpm but i want a legit exhaust thats not broken. I saw a full OBX catback for $375 but thats like half of my savings right now (17 ) plus installation would kill me but it looks like its not gonna be much cheaper than that

I wasn't trying to slight what you had. This particular member has no experience with this car or the ability to work on it. IMHO he needs a catback. Buying one piece then having to piece the rest is probably a little more then he/she is willing to take on.

I'll ask op what is your price range?

Try this. It's stainless steel, it's cheap but made well, and mandrel bends.

I wasnt trying to push like $450 with installation

@mattx i love this community!! Im guessing thats a little loud which is exactly what im looking for. If its not the bang im expectng ill probably either do a high flow cat or a custom y-pipe but thank you so much. I really appreciate you helping me out man ill show my mechanic tomorrow and ask him about it and if he says its good to go then ill update you when its on

 

It's definitely up your alley. It's on the louder side and though I hacked mine up the fitment is excellent.

 

If working with your hands and cars aren't your thing most decent sized towns have smaller non chain muffler shops that can help you out with out charging insane prices.

 

@cdoublejj id give it a shot if i had a lift....rather get it done by my guy right instead of screwing around under there haha

Great to hear! I think this is a definite for me now. Ill lyk how it all goes

Oh, Mattx, question, do you have a 5th or 5.5 gen? Mine is a vq35de engine

 

5.5gen. But the exhaust would fit exactly the same on either.

 

great! I have a 5.5 gen also so thats perfect (2002 SE)

Mattx, theyre out of stock. I also called 2kracing and theyre also out of stock. I feel as though the well has run dry....

 

@Matt
No worries. I just wanted the op to know that this hks rear section will bolt directly to an oem or aftermarket mid section with no problems while producing a nice aggressive sound. It's a well built stainless steel unit that I'm certain will meet his sound requirement.

@BlackoutSE
Here is a link to a mid section pipe for $94 in case you want to check it out.

That looks like a fart can

 

That's exactly what it is. I didn't care cause I was cutting it off. He said he wanted loud so it's loud.
