Andy Posted June 15, 2007 Posted June 15, 2007 Had a free day yesterday and my Nismo and Cats have been sitting in the garage begging to be fitted so I thought I would get on with it!! Jack the car up!! V6 NOS does Dukes of Hazzard! The old system The new cats! Bling Bling!! Somethings missing!! The old cats with the sensors on Me finishing off installing the new cats! Backbox and center pipe Cats leading onto Y-Pipe Backbox installed! The finished article! The exhaust note is spot on and i'm really chuffed with the whole setup as I fitted the Plenum last week as well!! Quote

Pingu2 Posted June 15, 2007 Posted June 15, 2007 aha! about time!! hope youre enjoying the vrooom noises as much as I do! Quote
IanS Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Looks good this - I am on the brink of ordering a Nismo - which cats did you go for? Any issues since you installed them? Cheers Quote
Andy Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 Did have a problem with one of them breaking down internally but were replaced with no hassles and have been as good as gold ever since! If yuo're thinking of doing the Nismo then you might as well do the cats at the same time. Will prevent a lot of hassle having to get the car up in the air again at a later date Quote
IanS Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 sound advice that - getting fitting quotes now... Quote
Andy Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 They are pretty easy to do with the right equipment to be honest. CAn't see it taking a professional much more than an hour with the right tools barring any problems with seized bolts etc. Make sure you keep hold of the parts you are replacing though, including the bolts as they might come in handy if you wish to swap back come sale time Quote
N15MNO-Daron Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Ive got same setup as u... nismo and hi flow cats.. Only after few months my Y-pipe blew.. i thought just one off faulty y pipe and Phil helped me out by replacing it. But its only been couple of months since the new one went on and i think its blown again.. I hardly thrash my car about.. im so frustrated!! Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Wierd for 2 to go so quick. Was the replacment supplied by Phil a nismo y-pipe? You been doing donughts? Cats tight enough or you got some play? Quote

Cats tight enough or you got some play? yes it was a Nismo pipe, very strange as we have not had any problems. I 'm running the standard Y pipe on my Nismo as the Nismo one split.. I have heard of quite a few people in the states having probs with the Nismo y pipe...but saying that doesnt seem to makje any difference with the standard Nissan y pipe fitted Quote
Cool Hand Luke Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Looking good. Are the cats Nismo also? How much were they? Quote
