Hi all!

Looking to replace the ancient aftermarket exhaust system on my Series 1 240z, and curious what the best options available to me are.
I saw a car recently on BaT that had the original style black tips, but not sure where that came from. I've never seen it on my internet travels.

Check it out here:

I'd like to be as stock/OEM as possible. Pretty sure my headers are original, but would need muffler, exhaust, mounts etc.

Still need to identify a resonator that mimics the OEM. Please post any links you uncover.

On 12/2/24 the seller (Performance Exhaust Nationwide) emailed me:

We can send through AUSPOST and that is $145AUD plus the item.

Don’t know if this helps, but here is a photo of the NOS/OEM exhaust system on my 1/71 car to compare with what you find in your search.

That's extremely helpful, @AZ-240z! Thank you. Let me know how much $$$ I need to send you to purchase that NOS one from you 😅

@DatsunZGuy @zed2 Thanks so much for these... going to compare to the above and see how it lines up. Will need to powder coat or similar to get the original OEM looking paint on the exhaust tip.

Glad it helps! I had the whole system Jethot coated, except the NOS black and chrome exhaust tip. All of the hangars are also OEM/NOS.

Is Jethot coating similar to ceramic coating like they put on exhaust manifolds?

Go to their website if you haven’t already. I’ve used them and it is ceramic coating. They have a great video. Good People.
