it went better then I expected, was able to take off the cans and mid pipe but no luck on the Ypipe . The Y pipe was not letting go and I didnt want to kill myself trying to take it off being that the car was only being held up by a jack and two jack stands.

Hahah and pull out is exactly what I did.. I'm so happy I didn't get test pipes a week earlier cause there was no way I would of been able to or even tired to take those off with simple hand tools.. P.s the rubber hangers wouldn't move either so I sliced through them with a blade haha easiest part of the job

Update: My Z was taken today from the yard where it has be kept since the wreck and was transfered to a salvage yard. An assesment of the damage should be done either today or monday. I then will be waiting on my insurance to let me know what will happen next.

This has to be the most annoying process ever!! More annoying is that when I was driving the Z I would never seen any nice cars on the roads to mess around with, but now that im in the Altima I see something sick all the time. Last night I saw a pack of 350s and 370s on the highway rolling together this sucks!!!

Believe me, I understand. I saw a 40th today and started to wave and then remembered I'm driving a brown Cube.
