WOW, Could not believe how heavy the OEM exhaust system was. Probably shaved 40LBS off the car, glad that's gone...



(I'm leaving this up as an FYI, CE Y-Pipe was replaced with Hotshot Headers in July 2006)
Custom Enterprise Y-Pipe bolted up 12-9-2004 to the Pre-Cats and GReddy SP-II Catback exhaust system...

UPDATE 9/2/2004, Stillen rear Anti-Sway Bar.
Took all of 15 minutes to swap out the OEM Anti-Sway Bar (Remove 1 rear tire, 6 bolts, swap out, done)
EXCELLENT IMPROVEMENT, CORNERS FELT TIGHTER WITH LESS BODY ROLL, CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT IT FEELS LIKE ONCE I MARRY IT WITH MY NEWLY ORDERED STILLEN FRONT UPPER STRUT TOWER BRACE.
As for the Stillen Front Upper Strut Brace (FUSB), The Part Num# for a 2004 MAX is #307021, Yes it also fits the 2005 ALTIMA 3.5L. See Pic's of install:


Updated 8/23/2007, OK on 5/30/2006 I installed my new RacingLine Endlinks. These Endlinks do and excellent job in augmenting the Stillen RSB. Only problem was the Grommet stink so I upgraded the to new Polyurethane Sway Bar End Link Grommets with Washers and used 3" grade 8 stainless steel nuts and bolts to fit the new grommets on.

Updated Sept 11, 2004. FINALLY RECEIVED AND INSTALLED THE NEW UNORTHODOX RACING UNDERDRIVE CRANK PULLEY. TOOK ME ABOUT 4 HOURS USING ALL HAND TOOLS (DON'T OWN AN IMPACT WRENCH YET!!!). OVERALL EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH INSTALL.
