I believe you'll also have to change the mid pipes if you want to use a Y-Pipe on the Nismo.

Not sure there any any real cheap solutions here guys.

As someone mentioned at the point of changoing the downpipes and mid-pipes, you may as well go all out, and just get a full cat back that performs better than the Nismo LOL

Plus you should through in some Berk HFC's
