whatever you do, don't call macco unless u wanna pay them to repaint your car the next year. idk if anyone here does it, but you should find a place that stripes the existing paint and then paints it. gonna cost a lot more but it's prolly more worth it.

so i took a closer look on the car i bought it has 3 rust spots on the driver side front fender. its alittle smaller then a dime. ima see how much it cause from ur painter guy to fix that. is he really good at matching colors. do u think its gonna be more than a day job. my other option is buying a new fender and replacing those metal fenders with a duraflex type. my wife keeps telling me just to leave it but its just gonna keep bugging me. i hate imperfection plus rust will eat throw the metal and it will get bigger later on

Romanowski · 09-12-2009, 11:18 PM

High Flow Cats done.... It took me about an hour and a half, and cost me $8 for lift time

IMWEZL · 09-13-2009, 02:07 PM

Very nice!

(Now I have to hide my wallet to keep from buying stuff)

Any issues getting the bolts to come off or did you use Liquid Wrench?

Most car manufacturers have a 7 or 10 yr warranty against rust unless it was damaged from an accident. Not sure how Nissan would handle it since you're the second owner but for Free it has to be worth a try.

The bolts connecting headers to the cat converter were extremely tight. Liquid wreched them several times. The others were hard, but not that hard. I'd say the aqward bolt angles were the worst part.

I am hearing a vibration and strange sound when I get past 5-6K RPM. I will more than likely go back on Tuesday to recheck seals and gaskets. I might need to put in a new O-Ring, as Stillen didnt provide one.

Besides that, it feels great. It really screams past 5K.
