I really like the Greddy Sp2 exhaust but sadly they dont make it for us 97-99 guys. My question is how would I go about making an Sp2 exhaust for a 95-96 Maxima work? I believe that I would have to get one O2 sensor hole plugged, and extend it right? But by how much? Also has anyone ever done this? Post pics if you have the 95-96 Sp2 installed on your car modifed or not. Thanks in advance guys

 

The muffler will tuck under your bumper, and you'll need an o2 bug welded on the b pipe.

 

i got mine from ultrarev.com and it was a direct bolt on it had the hole already when i got it.

my bad www.cardomain.com/id/97goldgle
that should work

 

this is an excellent question. Bump. has anyone else done this ? how hard is it to retro fit. so all the hangers line up? is an extention all that is needed?

 

bump bum bump....

 

no need mine is 95-96 sp2 but ihave it on my 97 all hangers are in the right places and mine had the o2 sensor hole already.

 

So all that needs to be done is to have it extended. I might go ahead with this as my next mod. A muffler shop should be able to do this right? Also how does the Sp2 sound with a y-pipe? Thanks in advance again!

 

So if I extend it wouldnt the hangers be out of place? I remembers someone on here was doing this but I cant remember who it was?

 

i thought 97-99's didn't have any o2 sensors after the cat? i don't remember seeing one? do you have any close up pics or any under car pics?

 

95/96 and early 97 have the rear o2 sensor in the cat. 97-98 have them in an "S" pipe behind the cat. 99's are weird, some have them and some dont. Mmmaxx's 99 has one but Gregs, http://www.greghome.com/Greg's%20Garage/1999%20Nissan%20Maxima%20SE/1999%20Maxima%20SE.htm,
99 doesnt. So confusing.

Anyway the SP2 is a compleat bolt on for all 4thgens,
since the SP2 owners have stated there is a bung for the o2. The only thing is it looks retarded on a 97-99 because the rear bumper is longer.

 

well offically my car is a 99.5 since it is an SE-L. i know for a fact it does not have that S restrictor type thing that greg has on his max. i was under there during the y pipe install. i had read some places that 99's can use greddy EVO exhaust system because the 99.5 and 2000 may have the same exhaust piping setup but i am uncertain. i don't mind getting the greddy sp2 and the having the piping lengthen about 3 inches so it can fit flust with the bumper. the longer i own this damn 99 SE-L maxima the more fitment issues i encounter. like my strut bar for example. thanks for the info

 

Guys I have decided to order the Sp2 on Monday. I will extend it about 3inches or so and it should be fine. I just hope it doesn't sound too ricey by extending it and having a y-pipe.

 

Bump. nissanfreak since we are in the same boat, and you also have a 99 SE-L i noticed that we have no O2 sensors in the B pipe on or car so it wouldn't be needed to add the bung but you could add a longer magnaflow res. as the extension. if this works let me know i am very interested and would love pics

 

Sure I will let you know how it goes I should have this done by next weekend!

 

97GoldGLE, how does the SP2 sound? And do you have a Y-pipe as well? And nissanfreak I look forward to your impressions of the exhaust

 

bump because i wanna know

 

You need about a 2" extension to make it fit right. You can have it made at any muffler shop - it's just a 2" piece of pipe with flanges on either end. This will cause the hangers to stretch a little but the tip will sit flush.

if that is all in that case i guess i am getting the Greddy SP2. i was waiting for the brm exhaust but that's taking toooo long

 

free bump...

 

i have the sp2 with the WS y-pipe. it sounds really good. a very deep tone when first accelerating, it gets a little raspy at 3500rpms but goes away before 4000. when driving on the highway or long roads there's no drone. a very quite system until you plan on going WOT.

 

Im going to order mine tomarrow! Hey zack342, are you going to order yours tomarrow also? If so and you happen to get yours done before I do let me know how it went down. Good Luck

 

earilest i can order mine is friday since i am not getting paid untill then, from the reseach i have done and the pics i have seen of the SP2 for the 95-96. it shouldn't require much work at all. just the addition of maybe 2-3 inches on the b-pipe.i have been looking at the stock exhaust alot and there is no O2 sensor in my B-pipe or after the cat anywhere for that matter and i have a 1999 SE-L also. mine is cali emissions though.i am probally going to get my SP-2 from berk technology, i saw in the group deal forum they have them for $489 shipped, so look there unless you found it cheaper. good luck

 

95-96 Greddy SP2 $485 shipped. I have three in stock and ready to go.

I finally got my SP2 this afternoon and it does have an O2 sensor hole aready in the b pipe. I will probably have to get it plugged. I should get this thing installed tomarrow (Friday).

 

glad to hear it looks like an easy bolt up. i got my SP used for about $405.55 shipped, its not stainless which sucks but it should bolt right up and was a little cheaper so i think i did good. hope you like your sp2 i am kinda jealous, the tip on the sp2 looks better than the tip on the sp
