New exhaust

[Mark G]

Replaced the rear section, custom build by Infiniti Exhausts near Bath, doesn't sound too bad I think.

 

[Stuno1]

Love it. My biggest issues with the isf was always the exhaust note. 

[Mark G]

Yes, mine too, didn't you have a H&S fitted to your isf?

[GibletPH]

Sounds good! My stock exhaust is going back on soon, will miss the noise from the aftermarket one.

Hi GibletPH Is the aftermarket one for sale ?

[Mark G]

Any particular reason why you are going back to stock?

Great stuff Mark.

Have you got any more info on the product, price, time to fit etc?

Many thanks,

Dav

Ha yes, I thought someone would spot the gardener.

The exhaust is a custom build by Infiniti Exhausts, took them 4 hours to make from scratch in high grade stainless, they give you the options on tail pipes sound etc and then make it, great guys to deal with, they have a facebook page with most of their work on it.

£500 all in.

Awesome. My part of the world too :)  

Is there any droning when cruising?

Yes, not that far from you, I just called in and let them have a quick look to give me a rough idea of how long it would take.

Yes there is some droning as they said there would, it is around 2000rpm which if you are on a motorway or duel carriageway and travelling at legal speeds is right in that range.

I don't do many motorway miles so it doesn't bother me, however I am taking the car to Andorra in 2 weeks time, I may think differently when I get back!!!!!

I did, yes. The sound of a performance car  is so integral to the enjoyment for me.

[Ray-ISF]

Did they install a x pipe? And have you replaced your secondary cats?

These guys are near me as well but I do mostly motorway and can't have any droning. 

Reading a previous post on the forum installing a x pipe and replacing secondary cats with silencers removes any drone. Or just keep secondary cats in place.

Big difference in price between this and the like of H&S.  Why such a massive price difference between similar exhausts?

The cats are still in place and there is no x pipe fitted, this is probably why there is such a price difference, if you want to listen to it I am not that far from you, just drop me a PM.

One thing they did say was they can make alterations in the future, x pipe, cat removal etc

[Ray-ISF]

Thanks for the offer Dave might take you up on that. I too want to leave my cats in place due to not wanting to invalidate warranty. But due to the fact that I spend all my time on motorway cruise I'm right in that drone zone it would drive me mad

Hi Stuno1

Reading back over your posts you had a secondary cat back exhaust. Did u experience any drone at motorway cruise speeds between 70 - 80 mph?

It will be, might offer first refusal to whoever buys my car.

Going back to stock before I advertise the car as I think some buyers may be put off by mods.

A tweaked Evo X, left a deposit on one yesterday. At 476bhp it's more potent than the ISF but understandably not as refined. Felt the need for something more focused. 

[Warrington guy]

Very nice . I've got ichy feet too . Want gtr but finding it hard to let the isf go

No drone at motorway speed on mine. That was a specific requirement when I asked for the system to be built.

I had a red evo x before my first ISF in red. Very tunable I really enjoyed it. 

I think I'll go for a gtr next. But I would like to keep the ISF in storage.

Mark ( @Mark G) how you getting on with the exhaust and your concerns about drone?

[Mark G]

Well i have just got back from a trip to Andorra, just over 2000 miles and apart from a couple of occasions it didn't bother me at all.

At 68 - 72 mph is where it is droning, I normally set the cruise around 80 mph or slightly above, at this speed it is fine, in fact the faster I go the easier it is on the ears!!!!!!

I think it is a personal thing, the passenger didn't complain either but some people may not like it, as I have said, if you want to listen for yourself then let me know, I am sure we can sort something out.

That would be brilliant. Let me know when & where is good for you.

Thanks very much :)
