Questions Regarding A 2002 Nissan Maxima Exhaust System

Hello, I am knew to the nissan forums and have a question regarding my 2002 Nissan Maxima. I have been in the market for a some what cheap downpipe and headers for my 2k maxima and came across a 2002 NISSAN ALTIMA downpipe and headers and was wondering if the ALTIMA parts would fit on my MAXIMA? The link to the altima header+downpipe is https://goo.gl/Mc7KhX I was also wondering if I would get any CEL from this install if it goes through even though it has 4 O2 sensor ports. Thank you very much for reading this thread -Mitchell

It is NOT a direct fit. You can make them however, by readjusting the flange on the y-pipe. Probably best to have a muffler shop install and mod them if you don't have a welder or proper tools.

2002 Nissan Maxima Headers

Hello everyone! I am a pround Nissan Maxima owner and was looking for exhaust modifications. I currently have the greedy n1 knockoff cat back and was looking for headers to install. I don't really want to dish out the money for obx so is there any other brands I can look for? Thank you!
