The only thing they could find at Nissan was that the passenger side O2 sensor was not OEM and was soldered in. The one I replaced last week was the driver's side. The voltage readout drops to 0 randomly while the car is on so they think that is what is causing the misfire CEL.
They also discovered that JMS didn't put on an OEM bracket for the cats to bolt to, hence causing the vibration from hell.

Proposed estimate for parts and labor is at $400 right now. I have a buyer who really wants it despite these issues so if he can get his loan together by tomorrow afternoon, he's paying half of the repair and I'm giving him my true payoff price to just get rid of it. I'm hoping he comes through so I'm not out $400 and then taking it immediately to trade in.
