installed the Metra kit and Kenwood DDX770

 

Looks good

 

Added Plenum spacer, and Injen Cold air intake. Cant decide which Cat sets to put on first. What would you do?
INVIDIA 60MM TESTPIPE HIGH FLOW CATs
or
Kinetix Racing G35 High Flow SMOG Legal Cats

which will go along with, but as soon as it is delivered
MEGAN 3" Stainless Dual Tips OE RS Catback Exhaust

Cant decide... Should i keep the test pipes? Not planning on racing my car. should i really put them on, and then put the others on just for inspection time? Is it really worth it?

 

Fyi no high flow cats are carb legal.... I went with Crawford hfc and I love em..... Remember u get what u pay for.

Brand new pair!

 

The Indivia cats seemed to be rated better. But the kinetix are suppose to be quieter. Not really going for a very loud sound. The lower the better

 

Discovered Nissan still likes to use goo filled bushings.... Think I found the cause of vibration at high speed...

Whiteline bushings and a Nismo diff cover on order from CZP.

 

Says right here that these do pass inspections.

That page you just linked even said that those do not have CARB numbers. So while it might pass the sniffer, if the smog tech actually decides to check under and question them, and you have no CARB number, you're **** out of luck.

 

How would one get around this?

 

find a smog tech that doesn't give a ****.

 

I know its not one of ur options but u should get ART pipes good sound no rasp and increase in hp up with a tune. . . .

 

If he's worried about passing a smog test why should he but ART pipes? Also, they are LOUD, again not what he is looking for. I would just call CZP and see what options they have, I know they have Stillen and a few other brands but none of them are CARB legal so if you're in CA you'll need to find away around the inspection.

I changed my oil and installed new brakes over the weekend, ebay x drilled and slotted rotors have close to 60,000 miles and no problem having them turned, I'll order another set just in case.

 

picking up stock exhaust parts..think the days with the 04 are numbered

 

Peoria35sedan, theyre not loud they just give a deeper note to the vq sound, and if he is worried about passing smog, then he shouldn't take his cats off or just pay a lil extra for a shop to pass it. I was just giving him another option than the ones he was thinking of
