by the way, the shop I've found is called Acutech in San Bruno. They're doing front/back for $99.66. not too shabby.

You should just do it. The bolt will come out w/ some effort - just keep going at it! Save yourself $100. I'll do it for $50 hehe

Werd! I need to go back under and finish the rear. I actually had to OEM rear sway off but I couldn't get it out! I heard that it was a pain with dual exhaust, but I figured with the single Nismo it wouldn't be a problem.....I was wrong.

I started to get hungry and needed to finish studying so I just bolted the OEM back in and figured that I'd just get back to it another day.

Just found this pic on the net..

Does anyone notice anything wrong with it? Or is that just the way the Evo bar goes? Isn't it suppose to go over not under?

NO this is not my car

Does not look like that bar would fit over the exhaust because it would run into the drive shaft.

Don't wear yourself out trying to break it loose with quick tugs on the bar, put even, constant force on it and eventually it will loosen up.

No sir, eventually my wrench will slip off and I'll punch the underbody of my car hahah..

They're on there good, believe me. Saturday I'm taking it in. $100 is definitely worth the skin on my knuckles.
