Well looking at the prices of the used OEM cats they are going for quite a bit less than I expected.

My only question now is are all years the same? I was under the impression they were, and if I...

Good alternatives to OEM catalytic converters?

Currently running test pipes on my 2012, just read that my county will begin doing emissions next year. Emissions have never been a thing here so this is an area I'm fairly clueless about.

That's the thing, if it can't withstand pressure washing I'll just get a new wheel. In 25 years of pressure washing cars, some pushing 300k miles, I've never had paint peel off from anywhere on a car...

Wheel powder coating - will it last?

Long-story short, a brake shop spilled brake fluid all over my wheel and ruined the finish.

Anything similar to ART pipes been produced?

Those things sound awesome and I refuse anything else but the price is also kind of hard to justify for a daily driver that I'm not going to build past this and the Short-Tails.

Has any other...

Ok, throwing in the towel. My "suede" looks awful. I started off really mild with just a damp rag and gentle scrubbing, moved up to oxiclean, oxiclean and hard scrubbing, dish soap, rubbing...

I was looking to get 25mm/20mm but after calling around several places, it seems that nobody will install them and more importantly nobody will work with them. What I got from most tire and brake...

Knock-off wheels

The 2012 is one of the few stock wheel designs I really like on any car, I'd just like a wider set-up. Anyone know if there is a quality knock-off being made or does Nissan own that design? (No, I...

Yeah I might be off on that, I just remember having read it somewhere when I was ordering test pipes, though I can't find it now..... just wanted to be on the safe side and say they don't fit.

Art Pipes/Resonated TP sound comparison?

I have AAM short tails, great sound, bit too quiet for my tastes though. Art pipes are art pipes, obviously great product, however, my car came with a pair of FI resonated test-pipes that I've just...

Good shop in SA for test pipe install?

Was quoted almost $400 and a 4 hour+ install time for a Berk resonated TP install by a pretty reputable shop. Not going to mention name, maybe they had their reasons but seems a bit over the top and...
