Hey guys, I got a few questions. I have to replace my 2004 G35X Y-pipe cuz its rusting badly with holes going through there and different parts to the muffler (flange & pipe broke in half at muffler). I also have a STRONG chemical ammonia smell filling my cabin especially with my windows down & at high speeds. Some people are suggesting its the cats that're gone so I think I have to replace everything from the cats & back.
1) Anybody have rusting issues with the HR Y-pipes?
2) Will this mate up: HR/M2 Y-pipe -> Coupe midpipe -> HKS sport axleback/muffler?
3) What cats can I use for the 04 G35X and to mate up with the HR/M2 Y-pipe?
PS- Awesome thread for X-'ers!

I have the M2 ypipe/coupe midpipe and HKS axleback all mated up. Sweet setup IMO.

So just to get this straight, Nissan 370Z / Infiniti G37 2008-2010 3.7L V6 VQ37VHR Stainless Steel Y Pipe :Automotive fits as a direct replacement of the y-pipe on an otherwise stock 05x exhaust?
Mine is falling apart at the flex and its either have the flex fixed for 300 or buy another y pipe.

Am I gonna have any rasp if I put on a 370Z Y-pipe to an 04 G35x? The Y-pipe I'm picking up for free, I currently have AAM Competition G35 2.5" HFCs and a MF 14832 exhaust on the way along with a coupe midpipe. I hope there isn't too much rasp, hope it sounds good too. The reason I want to change out the Ypipe is that the flex pipes are starting to fall apart. Maybe I should sell the 370 Y pipe and just go to the exhaust shop and have them replace it? Does anyone even have a 370Z Ypipe on their 1st gen AWD G's?

Make sure you are talking about the Y-pipe for the 2nd gen ('08+). M2 makes 2 designs - one first gen, which is the design that doesn't fit, and one second gen, which is the HR-design that does fit. Not sure why they told you it wouldn't fit as I am 99% sure the transfer case is in the same place on 04 and 05.

Exactly the same issue here
So I need a new y pipe due to mine rusting out and making a rattling noise.
After I reading this thread I am still not sure on if this M2 Performance Stainless Y-Pipe Exhaust w/ Flex 2008-2012 Infiniti G37 VQ37VHR
will fit my 2006 G35x or not.
If not what Y pipes can I use?
Thanks.

So far I've spend days re welding where the thin cheap metal cracked open and leaks. The flex sections on my m2 rotted out months ago. M2 is absolute crap. It does fit though. I'm having a y pipe made for my x. I'm fed up.
