Nah, I like the GReddy cat-back better. Looks like it'll fit, but if it doesn't then something will be modified.

My guess is the sound won't be too bad with that setup. And the performance should be excellent. The only thing I'm not sure about is how much noise you'll generate by removing your main cat. I'd suggest you save that for last. If it's too noisy, you can always reinstall the cat.

it should fit without any problems but when i first install my exhaust, the tip was touching the bumper...we had to pull down the piping and the hanger little bit to make some room between the bumper and the tip...so far so good~

Shinnjee...well, i guess i'm recommending Premier as i take my car there for almost anything...but if you want to, just let me know...
my advice..get the shocks installed at the same times as your springs..you'll need the shocks anyway and this will save you lots of $$$$$...

Irvine78,

When you put your springs on, did you chop like 1/2 coil on the front? I like how your car sits (a little lower in front).

Has anyone else done this? If so, does it really affect the ride quality?

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. When I do go, I'll let you know but I'm gonna definitely get both springs and shocks at the same time. And, maybe they can put in my FSTB too when I get it.

uhhh....try more like 1 coil in front/back.
as far as i'm concerned, MaxedBandit and I are only Maximas with cut Eibachs..(he has Konis and i have the toks.. )
anywayz...it's not that harsh ride at all(despite Y2KevSE's cynical remarks..)....but don't chop the coils if you have stock springs...

i'll say this before Kev or anyone else on the forum jump in...yeah, i'm fully aware that my Toks are going to blow in about a year or less...
