getting the shipment today now... i have a question...

Installing it myself at my friends fathers mechanic shop
the biggest problem i might have is getting those rusty bolts off? Is that the only thing i should be looking foward to?

Just a reminder is an 02 and i live in new york and we get major snow its been in so many type of weather conditions =/ TIME TO GET DIRTYYy!!!

 

Does the shop have a lift? You're better off just cutting the bolts and replacing them with new ones.

 

yea the shop has a lift or should i say it better. so i should just cut off the old bolts no matter what? even if its rusted or not? and replace it with new ones? is there a universal size bolts i need to get before hand? im not even sure i never looked under fonda the honda before. Dont know what my baby is holding under her stomach

 

I can almost guarantee they will be rusty. Those bolts rust within 6 months. There's a good chance you'll shear the head off, they'll snap, etc. So it's just better to replace them. I don't know if the GReddy comes with them or not, they should at least provide bolts to connect the new pipe together so if you have to buy any, it will only be 3 to connect the mid-pipe and cat together.

 

awesome thanks. dude

 

i put kroil on mine for about 10 minutes, came off like butter.

 

woah good idea.

 

Penatrating lube and a good air wrench should do just fine, i would try that before cutting any bolts

Congrats on the exhaust

 

Thanks.

 

i have a 98 and i just installed the ws2 on it. everyone told me to cut the bolt b/c its all rusted it. i didnt want to do that. What i was was soak it in PB then after like 10-15 minutes, wipe it down a lil bit, then used a blow torch to heat up the bolts. All the bolts came off. i wouldnt berak unless you absolutly had too.
