Someone in the 4th Gen forum said PB Blaster (walmart, autozone, pepboys...) works much better than wd40. I'm going to pick up a can and start spraying my bolts a few days before I install.

Sometimes its easier just to torch the bolts to get them loose. When you un-bolt the front cat converter bolts just torch'em instead of using PB blaster or WD-40. Also get the biggest breaker bar you can get and a 14mm 6 point deep socket. Ive never had any problems with the 6 header bolts, just the two cat converter bolts were the biggest PITA until I torched them. Ive done a few Y pipe installs there not that tough if you have the right tools.

Oh and if anyone in the Massachusetts area is having a tough time with the install bring'em to me and I can do them.

FYI bring money for beer.

By torching do you just mean heating them up with a blow torch? How hot do you need to get them? You're not cutting them are you? Hot metal expands...does this soften them or melt/break the rust?

I heat them up with a propane torch for a few mins. I think the heating and cooling helps break the rust seal. If I had acteylene It could be done in a matter of seconds but propane takes a while longer.

this has to be the biggest group deal EVER!!!

10 cool points to warpspeed for giving such a great price. I paid 215 shipped for mine 2 years ago. this is a sick price.

easiest way for a new car bought from nissan..every car has that piece of paper attached to the rear passenger window..with the description of the car and everything..there itll tell you if its cali or fed spec emissions. that piece of paper is still in my glove compartment after 4+ years
or do wut mm was writing about..if the car model # has 12 characters..it is cali spec?

two sensors in front of valve cover = Fed

The deal is closed now. If you want in you have to ask WSP. If you haven't given me ALL your info AND paid, do that ASAP.

Yes, I think you do. You'd probably get better info if you post this in one of the other forums...most of the people here including me haven't done this before.

paid today.....that woman must be one of the nicest people i've ever dealt with as far as customer service. Custommaxima.com should take a lesson.

I don't know what you guys did to her, but she must have explained six times that the pipes were being shipped in the order that payment was recieved, even though i told her everytime that i was excited, but i could wait.

Just a thought, does anyone know if there is a part number for the set of bolts? that way, i wouldn't have to worry about breaking the friggin things off.

Recieved Mine a while back buy called agian to ask about a B-pipe.

They are still hard at work packaging and shipping the Y-pipes.

120+ Pipes sold just by the Group Buy, $160.00 x 123 pipes = $19,680

Damn.
