Hey all. Another Z newbie question. How are people getting rid of the Check Engine light/ Service Engine soon light when putting on the test pipes or is this a problem. When I had my Spec V and I started prototyping headers we found that becasue the primary cat was removed we would get a CEL light after a few miles. We solved this by welding a new O2 bung further down the exhaust after the afterlighter. This cleared it for a while but the only real solution for those of us who ran with no cats was to use an O2 sim. Is there a similar problem\solution on the Z or are people using the $.02 fix (ie: electrical tape over the light)?

Actually your cel can come on after installing test pipes and yes I have checked everything I had to order the o2 sims and have been running them for about 3 months now.

I just installed my helix test pipes and have no problem with the CEL. Although the test pipes have bungs welded on for the O2 sensor.

I got my O2 sims from AEBS in Cali. when I had my Spec V. (Advanced Engine Breathing Systems). But I know Capser Electronics also makes some for Nissans. I would personally call Ben at AEBS. Great guy. Great shop. They build motors for people like Lisa Kubo, Dave Coleman, etc.

I got to AutoZone and have them cleared out for me. They do it for free. I haven't had a CEL for a few hundered miles though, since it came on last.
