Recieved my n1 dual catback today - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Thorpedo · 12-19-2001, 08:48 PM

Im just pleased with rollhard and there shipping...got here from california in 4 work days.  THe box was in kind of bad condition, looks like it got real wet...the staples were pretty much on there last leg and the box was falling apart.     To someone who has it, how many bolts came with yours?   THeres 6 holes in the gaskets and only 4 bolts.    Im glad i went with the n1 dual and not single because the dual tips are like 3.75"   thats PLENTY big     Anyways....thanks Rollhard!

Post back in this thread after you get it on.
Let us know how you like it, and how hard it was if you did it yourself.
I've been thinking about getting the n1 dual, so any info would be great.  Thanks.

It's truely a beautiful thing, i saw it with my own two eyes. i fit my whole #### fist in the piping! anyway thorpedo and i are planning on installing it tomorrow and taking lots of pics. there should be a website detailing every mod we do coming soon. woo! anyways im so jealous, you bastard!

Zenki Two40 · 12-19-2001, 09:43 PM

i know it might be hard to record it from another cars perspective, but let us know how loud it actually is. hope it goes on easy for ya'll :biggrin:

Thorpedo · 12-19-2001, 10:00 PM

my friend devin can put sound on the web, so i will definently get those up...I will definently do some idle, rev, and high speed flybys in and outside of the car for all prespectives.

*sykikchimp* · 12-19-2001, 10:49 PM

that will be much appreciated as I am lookin at the Exhaust too.

projectsilvia1 · 12-19-2001, 11:59 PM

i had the n1 single on my ka24 and it was very loud but it was different from every other n1 that i have heard but then again i had all the ins and outs plus some..maybe that was the key
they are the best as far as perfermance but the noise takes away from the appeal (for me anyway)

Did the noise take away from the appeal because it's really loud, or did it take away from the appeal because of the type of noise that it makes?  Is it a lower noise, kind of like the noise I got when I put my injen intake with cold air extension on, or is it more of bumblebee noise?

MorganS13 · 12-20-2001, 10:09 AM

I got my N1 Dual from Rollhard too over summer. They're service was great, they told me it was on backorder but i still got it within a week and a half. As far as sound, i thought it was a little loud at first but it grows on you i guess cause now i love it. All my friends were impressed by how much better it sounded than most other cars with the same type of cans on them. I lost a lot of low end but after i put my Place Racing CAI on i gained more back. I am definitely happy with the exhaust, but you definitely need an intake to offset the low end loss.

whoa with my exhaust i gained low end and with my intake lost low end it balanced out and then i got uped in the higher range from the intake..... interesting what different types of set-ups can do

Zenki Two40 · 12-20-2001, 10:12 AM

morgans13, or nebody w/ the dual, have you ever tried it with the silencers on and see how it affects it performance and sound wise?

MorganS13 · 12-20-2001, 10:14 AM

Oh yea, i almost forgot to mention how many looks i get with this exhaust.  I've had a lot of people stop me and pull up to me at lights askin me about it and tellin me how nice it is (mostly guys 20-40, no teens really, they just try to race me).  It really is a nice lookin piece, i'd have to say that its the best lookin exhaust i've seen for a 240, just my opinion.

Morgan

MorganS13 · 12-20-2001, 10:16 AM

Nah, i was thinkin bout gettin the silencers when i got my exhaust cause it was so loud. But then i got used to it and didn't really wanna spend the $90 or so for them.

Morgan

12-20-2001, 02:10 PM

The n1dual dosen't actually make the exhuast louder then it would be if you didn't even have a muffler?  I know a lot of those honda boys put things on their cars to make it louder.

I just don't want exhuast that purposefully makes my car lounder.

Also morgan, was it easy to install? did you do it yourself?

Thanks,

Chance

Thorpedo · 12-21-2001, 12:08 AM

Me and SrSkillaDet put on the exhaust tonight, for being first time mechanics, it wasnt that hard.  Like all the reports say, the hardest part is getting the old crap off.  On the sound, im really liking it.  Sounds decent in the car, but really shines outside.   It makes it sond completely different and very good...I dont find it obtrusive at all and the sound quality is very nice.   A full write up with pictures and sounds will be coming soon.   Thanks guys!

Krunko · 01-02-2002, 06:51 PM

Well are you gonna get us pictures? :-)

*transient* · 01-02-2002, 07:01 PM

how did you lift the car up to put it on; did you put it on ramps or something?

s13240sxman · 01-02-2002, 09:07 PM

PLEASE hurry with the pics and sound clips! My D-N1 is on its way and I cant wait untill it gets here to hear what it sounds like... I am gonna die over here! BTW what else do you have done to your car? I have Injen Intake and Hotshot Header soooooo I wanna know if theres gonna be any difference. Thanks HOPE YOU LIKE!
