Cat delete
i just wanna know if anyone has taken out their cats and just put a regular pipe there. i wanna know how it wuld sound before i do it becasue one of my cats is going bad but i dont have emmisions for another 2 years and hopefully by then ill have money for a n exhaut but for now im having someone take them out in a way so that it would be possible to put them right back on. so again just wanna know how it would sound ?
Is this what G35 owners have stooped to? =0(
If your OE cats are going bad the "Right Way" to replace them is with high flow cats. Just adding a pipe in place of the cats won't work because you have sensors and your G won't run without them in place.

You don't need the rear o2 sensors to run. But I do agree ^ high flo cats or test pipes is the way to go (essentially a test pipe is just a pipe with a flange and a o2 bung)
You need the O2 sensors to keep the ecu from richen up the mixtures, the secondary ones need to be installed with spark plug extensions, that way the readings are different making the ecu believe the cats are functioning properly.

What you are asking about is called a test pipe. They are very common. They will throw a code if you don't have anti foulers or o2 Sims. It will also smell really bad and is illegal.
If you decide to do it be aware of those above things.
Also they don't sound good they rasp.
Its been 2 days and 5 posts since you asked. If somebody knows, they will tell you. No need to remind us that you asked
Try audio forum and do some more digging.
I don't know for sure but I can tell you that almost all the other nissans you can not do this simple swap. Pretty much everything is different. I have no clue about the G but I'd bet it is the same deal

You might need a new harness, but beyond that, both systems are 2 ohm so it should be somewhat plug and play. But it will still sound like crap unless you have the Bose speakers, amp, and sub to go with it. IMHO, you really want to ask a stereo shop for a definitive answer.
