You'd probably be better off just getting the whole kit including piping.

Otherwise if you're just looking at getting a core, you could probably get one cheaper off one of the nissansilvia.com sponsors.

I can't tell you who though becuase I don't go there any more.

It'd be much cheaper if you got it as a kit. Custom piping cost much more than cores.

The HYBRID kits don't cost much and are very good for what they are. I've got one and no problems, real easy to fit.

If you cant get piping with it, your probably better off getting a Hybrid kit. Ive got one on my car too and am happy with it.

Custom piping can cost up to and over $600 installed.

Just look out for the Hybrid copy kits, ive seen pics of the inside of the piping and it looked pretty nasty.

If you can, also try to get t-bolt clamps. They're the ones that use a bolt rather than a screw to tighten them, which makes the a lot tougher.

or ebay sell them in bulk like 10 x 3" t bolt clamps for like $30 or so.

id prefer to spend the money and do it properly
