they changed the way the header/cat mounts to eachother.

if you swap out VQ37VHR headers/cats it will bolt up to the Y but you cannot do just one or the other.

actually a good upgrade for our cars (if you can find it cheap) is VQ37 headers and testpipes/high flow cats

LOL!!! bushings pictured are whiteline. SPL are always solid meaning straight metal. the ones pictured are what you want for the Lower Control Arm and Shock tower mount and the compression I believe has to be SPL..not sure whiteline makes one.

Thursday is fine....will take roughly 30 mins to an hour tops...just 4 bolts each seat and un plug 2-3 harnesses.

You can get energy suspension if you want less chatter for the compression bushings. Whiteline bushings are always cheaper than spl
