After some searching I couldn't find any pictures or descriptions of this clearance issues between the Blehmco LTB stage 1 or 2 (SFB same thing right???) and cattman headers/y pipe.

There was a few posts that clearance issues did exist but nothing specific and nothing about if the bar can be modified to fit. Also nothing was mentioned that I found about the stage 1 fit vs stage 2. Any help would be much appreciated!

 

bump for some answers!

Current fittments WILL Clear all aftermarket Y-pipes (Warpspeed Performance, Cattman, Stillen), but will NOT clear the Cattman headers on the 4th gen. I'm working with a customer in redesigning the 4th gen bar so that it will fit. If you have these headers or plan to purchase them, stay tuned and I'll have a design that fits.

 

The only headers I know of clearing LTBs are OBX.

 

I thought the stage1 lower tie bars cleared all headers??? I could be dumb wrong though...

 

No the stage one will not fit around the cattman headers. It can be modified to fit.

I am currently trying to make a stage 1 from scratch that will fit around the cattman gen 3 headers. I'm close, but it's a pain in the butt because I am just bending the pipe at work and bringing it home, test fitting then making an educated guess as to how much more or less one of the bends has to be.

Here's the linky to modify a stage 1. http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...ders-pics.html


Does anyone have pictures of a stage 2 mounted to the car? Just wondering where the rear part of the stage 2 bolts to the car. I've been under the car a few times but I don't see any mounting holes for the stage 2

 

 

Wish my under carriage looked that clean. But those are some sexy a$s headers.

 

nice pics rroderiques77... those are obx V2's u have w/ ltb stage 2 correct?

 

I used to. Headers came off when turbo was put in and now I run SFCs.

 

I ended up converting my LTB Stage 1 into a stage 2 and than attached to the SFCs.

 

thanks roderiquez, excellent pictures. I"ll try to convert my stage 1 when it is finished to a modified stage 2

 

I was going to do that as well, but I got sick of my LTB scraping. So, I decided to remove it and stick with the SFCs only.

 

dont have mine on anymore.... that thing scraped on everything

 

Damn that looks sic on the ride!!

 

That's a pretty "gangster" line...

 

Its so clean, I hate MA its rust city under my car

Thanks for the answers. I'll be skipping this mod for now since it looks like it wont fit.

 

Drunkie, how did you attach the LTB to your SFCs? Got pics?
