hey guys and girls got two questions

first im trying to take off my exhaust, the stock ka downpipe and i cant get the bolts off that connect it to the cat, so im not sure if the bolts are welded on that side of the cat or what?.....but just wondering if anyone knows

second i found a dump pipe and dowpipe off of an s12 a 1984 200sx ca18et or whatever and im trying to figure out if they'll fit on the stock ca turbo without modification or if i should just use the s12 downpipe, my swap didnt come with it and they gave me some other one i think its a sr which doesnt do anything for me.

and if anyone is getting rid of a front mount or a full exhaust system that would be awesome~[email protected]

Not sure about the downpipe but if you get some WD40 or I think it's liquid wrench or something and sparay the nuts tap them spray again and let them sit for a few it should help to get them off.

S12 t-2's have a 4 bolt dump pipe, t25's have a 5 bolt flange. S12 downpipe won't work with t25 dump pipe either
