I looked up my order on their website. I know they already processed my payment as it showed up on my card immediately. on their website it says the following:
"Payment Status: Authorized"
"This order is pending.
"
That means that they got the money but have not shipped yet. Are we sure they had 10?

Thanks Flip....my main concern is that it doesn't decrease my mileage during normal commute driving. Since it sounds like it stays pretty much the same I think I am gonna jump in on this.

It sounds like he is a busy man and is shipping them out as quick as he can. I'm sure they will be out by Monday. No worries.

I believe these are crushed gaskets, so I would say no. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Hey Guys sorry I've busy with several projects, I just wanted to apologize for the delay in getting some of these out. 3 of these were in stock here in BC with the other 6 pieces out in our holding warehouse on the east coast ( the bender that makes the pipes for us is on the east coast and they send all the pipe to 1 warehouse there that holds than and ships us bulk orders).

Long story short they were going to ship the remaining 6 ypipes for us so that they went out quickly but there was a breakdown somewhere along the lines and they sent the 6 pipes to us instead of drop shipping them. They are here now and I just finished packing and applying the labels to the boxes personally so they are ready for fedex to pick up tomorrow (Tuesday) Really sorry for the delay again but they WILL be out in the morning. Kam, I'll message you back in the morning, I got your email on my BB just haven't had time to reply back

Yup, thanks! Fed Ex is now showing the beginning of the shipping process for my tracking number I got off the Racingline website. Mine should arrive in Georgia on July 27.

Now should we talk about a group buy on the strut bars? When do the polished ones come back into stock?

Let us know how your rear sway bar experience is. I haven't found much feedback about this product and plan to order one very soon to take advantage of the sale.

I don't think I got an email with a tracking number either. I went to the www.racinglineperformance.com website, signed in, then went to my previous orders and it was on that page.

I went to the dealer with the part numbers and they pulled up the pic you posted above and I told them which ones I needed and bought them from the dealer, it was like an extra 2 or 3 dollars vs going through courtesy and I didn't have to wait so I was fine with paying extra

INSTALLED!

I took pics through the whole process and I am going to post them up.

A couple things I notice.
1. the new y-pipe no longer has a lip to sit the ring gasket on so you defenitly need some RTV to hold the gaskets into place.
2. the rear connection flange was not threaded like the factory one and required two more 10-1.25 nuts.

Ill post more later

I'm looking forward to see the pics.

I'm new here and new to Maxima. I bought a slightly used 09 Max last week.

I'm looking at this y-pipe or a full catback exhaust, plus a chip and an intake or CAI, how much additional horsepower can I gain?

Trix_05, I wanted to get back to you about the racingline sway bar. I'm definitely liking it alot and notice less body roll for sure even on the outer softer setting. The inside setting is about 25% stiffer according to Joe from racingline. I can take tight turns and ramps much faster and it feels more stable. The swaybar itself is heavier and thicker than oem. Prior to this install I had the racingline
front strutbar and eibach springs btw.

Thanks so much for getting back to me regarding your Racingline RSB. I'm happy to hear that you're liking it. Is the 25% stiffer setting the most aggressive setting on the adjustable RSB?

Thanks again,
TB.

Yeah, there is only 2 settings, 2 holes pretty much. The inner hole or setting is the setting that is supposed to be 25% stiffer than the outer. Honestly I was wary of putting it on that setting because I didn't want it to be too stiff since my car is a daily driver like most. However I may consider adjusting it some time down the road. I'm liking the outer setting for now it's not too soft or stiff. Here's a pic of the Racingline RSB below with the screws and bushings and the 2 settings on the right side of the bar.

Also again where else can we get the new gaskets and the part numbers?
