It looks like the resonator section isn't at the right angle, also remember you have rotation adjustment on the ART pipes, try resetting that first.

What do you mean by rotateing the pipe ? The right resonator itself hanging low , the other side is ok . Even with rotation which I doubt its possible still it will hang low.

The ART pipes are adjustable via rotation on the headers, it affects the height of the y-pipe end under the car.

yea they are pretty damn quiet. I think the lowest part of the ART pipes are the ends of the side-branch resonators.

Since the ART pipes use the oem donut gastket, they can pivot on that to change the pipe's angle relative to the header. For example: if you tightened the bottom two bolts on the triangular flange, then went to tighten the top bolt, it would result in the ART pipe being angled downwards too much. Its best to get the pipes sitting how you want them, then tighten the 3 bolts on the flange equally.

^^^^ That, also, make sure there isn't the floor shield bolts sticking through, i don't know if it exists on the 370, but worth checking.

Difference between the v2 and v3 ART pipes?

MaDMaXX · 08-18-2014, 10:44 PM

I believe it's just brackets.

How in the world did you manage to reach and get the very top bolts out on the factory CATS ??? Almost no access to them especially the driver side. 45min you said, and you did that on the ground!!???? It's the worst designed access for CATS ive done. Impossible to get them without 2+ foot extension which you gotta use from the engine bay side

MaDMaXX · 05-14-2016, 06:37 PM

Yes, that would be how you do it.

I wish someone would say something about it in the installation thread. I never came accross this info. 2+ foot extension is not something many people have and even techs.

Anyone know if these ART pipes will work with either the FI TT 3" exhaust system, and the AAM TT Kit?

I have a set of motordyne art pipes installed in my 09 370z and was wondering if its normal for the car to make a hissing kind of sound after letting off the throttle. started happening after I installed the pipes and did not find and leaks when i felt around them.

Yes, it's normal.
