Nismo Exhaust Install ?
Tried the search, nothing.
Curious as to the install, does it take 2 people to do, as in lifting the muffler and installing. I will have access to a lift. Just wondering as I will end up telling my wife she has to assist at the lift,

Hey zand02max
Did mine.
Hope this helps, I coudnt get the stock canister off either, but this was fairly quick to do
The best way is to remove the 2 metal hangers mounted from the underside of your car 'with' the rubber mounts. You will need a long extension for your ratchet, but removing the 3 bolts from each side will easily drop your rear muffler.
Take off the 3 rubber hangers and put them on the new exhaust.
Once you have the Y-pipe on and the straight pipe mounted to the mid-rubber hanger, get someone to hold the rear canister in place as you re-mount the 6 bolts in place, and the hard part is done.

i installed a catback on a different car once. it took about 1.5 hours and did not need a second person. it really helps to have the right tools to cut down on time.
