Hello all 350Z and G35 guys
Do you have test pipes and a check engine light?
This is the video you need to watch.
I ordered stainless steel O2 defoulers from ebay.com. It was a double pack for about $12 shipped. To cheap of a fix. I hate check engine lights and if you do. Here’s how to fix that after installing test pipes.

Fix them before you start buying new parts. And thank you for watching the vid. Means a lot 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾

Yo don’t “need” a tune with basic bolt on to drive your car. Although with a tune your car will run better and make more power and tq being that it has been recalibrated for the freeer flowing exhaust and intake. So no you don’t need a tune. But it will be better with a tune. Make sense?

Monkey Rench Garage no the car starts fine, it used to have a dead battery cause of not moving it for months but I checked the oil when I was home, (I took it for a spin around the block so tires don’t get bruised up like my last ones) and it was low LOW like not even at the L mark I’m a bit concerned now but I literally didn’t even drive more than 1-3 miles since it was just a quick spin. Ordered 5Ls and same filter it had as when I bought it. I’m thinking it could be that but I’m not sure as the straight pipe it had on fell off and cracked from the y pipe (speed bumps) and maybe I’m getting an emission code but I’m just gonna go get it checked once I change the oil, just worried it’s a bit more than that since I’m on a budget most of the time

Monkey Rench Garage I tried pulling the code myself too with the built in system and was trying over n over and when I did get it correct for once I wasn’t paying attention since the beginning so I didn’t really read the code and every other try it gives me five slow blinks (read that means I’m doing it wrong) but idk tbh

Monkey Rench Garage been looking at the codes and the closest one that looks like it might be is code 1273? But I’m not sure but that code is related to air fuel ratio. I don’t know if that’s bcos my exhaust is broken off at the y pipe (so I narrowed it down) thinking it’s 1273 or 1283 but I still can’t explain the first slow blinks where 6 then 5 making that the “1” for the code?

Not in California it won't pass. Unless you get lucky and find a smog tech that doesn't check underneath the car. My local tech using one of those bent mirrors like the us border patrol uses to look for dope coming inti the US illegally. He would definitely see the defoulers and give you an immediate fail on the smog test. I think I have found a way around getting caught with the defoulers. Im currently trying it out here in Calle but it takes a few days and you must follow a strick guideline list of steps in order to pass smog and get the DMV registration tag. I have a Mazda protege 5 that has needed a cat for over 8 years now. I haven't replaced the cat and have passed smog 4 times in the past 8 years. Nothing gives me greater satisfaction when I can jam it up the ass of the state government. Bunch a tree hugging liberal woke_tards ruining everything in California....Just sayin'..... Ill repost what I did if it works out for the 350z.... Fingers 🤞
