50,000 miles

Well I just passed 50,000 miles in my 5th gen. I bought it in july when it had about 41 thousand on it. It feels great. I think it's itching for some new mods. (anyone in the DFW area want to sell a y-pipe?) Just bought an engagement ring so money will be freed up for mods again. Needs new transmission fluid and the clutch isn't as tight as it should be but..... It runs perfect. Only concern is brake squeal. Had thepads changed about 3 thousand miles ago and they started squealing again. I am running metal matrix pads though so that's probably the case..... Oh yeah a taillight is out as well. If anyone sees a 5th gen on 15 inch steels in the DFW area with a tailight out...... its me.

Where's DFW? OOps, figured it out, Dallas, Fort Worth? I have a 5th gen CA spec y-pipe I want to sell, I paid 450 for mine. I will sell it $300 plus shipping. The pipe is again for CA spec and it's the Cattman 304 stainless steel one. email me at young1976@hotmail.com if you are interested. It pipe is a couple of months old, I will cleanit and paint it in high heat silver paint before shipping if you want, so it'll look good.

Look on Cattman.com for pictures, the YG-5 (model I have)looks different from the ones there. CA Spec don't have the front curved part. Oh and you can get the gaskets from them too or your nissan dealer. I still have the gasket that goes against the cat. I'll include that too and mounting bolts. You have to reuse some of the old bolts.
