Hi fellow skyliners,

I have a 2008 v36. My car has been having a rattling noises when idling. I took it to my mechanic and he reckons its cat converters. Upon asking nissan for quotes it's about $3800 for the two plus labour. I was thinking that I could possibly get something else probably cheaper and as effective? I am not looking for something really loud... I kinda like the stock sound but don't mind if it gets a bit louder and deeper. My mate told me that he removed the cats but ever since he's been having fuel efficiency probs.

 

Could I get something after market that would do the job and give me bang for my buck?

 

Would really appreciate all help, suggestions and ideas.

 

Thanks in advance.

If you want to go high flow, then Fast Intentions does very good ones and sound pretty darn good too [emoji4]

Thanks mate, I couldn't find v36 on there. I know I can look at g37 but there's also 370Z.. So not too sure about which one would fit best.
I can't believe even Nissan would charge you $3800 for a couple of cat converters.
George will sell you some for about $250 each

Excellent link mate, I've messaged George on ebay asking for recommendations. Personally I don't mind spending up to $2k for the exhaust system. Let's see. Any suggestions on good ones? As I mentioned, I am not looking for attention something loud and attention seeking.

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
