Dont even bother trying to do that. For one, you will not find what you are looking for in a bolt-on kit. No one makes them.The other reason I would strongly be against this if you went the fabrication route would be possibly losing power. Almost every thing you do to this car will require the ECU to be retuned for the change you inflicted upon the M45's engine performance.

With that being said, finding someone to tune this car will not be easy at all.There are supposedly only two known tuners (to my knowledge) that can tune this car. One is UpRev in TX and the other is Stillen in CA.Be careful with what modifications you do to this car. It could be a big mistake and net you power loss. If the change is easily reversible, then by all means give it a try, but you were warned. This is your warning!

I'd agree. Hi-flo CATS are a waste of money with that being the only mod.

{Hi-Jack question} Curious what the Infiniti tuners use to interface with the ECU? Is there a SW package like HP Tuners out there for these cars?

+1 on the above comments; don't waste your time with the high flow cats. the gains that you may pick up may only be shown on a dynojet. (like 1/2 a horsepower)

Stillen (not quad, but still looks good) or Megan Racing but they do not advertise any performance gains. They look the best, but not sure how their kit will perform. They offer their kit in axle back only and offer the mid pipes separately.

Good luck....as this is to anyone who mods this car!

Sorry....but no thanks if they cannot even provide an actual pic of the HKS exhaust system for the M45.......No pics and no sounds clips! Hmmmm.....I don't think so.

DO NOT ORDER FROM JDM ULTIMATE!!! SCAM SCAM SCAM

I ordered some Cusco Trany bushings for my 240 OVER A MONTH AGO. They do not respond to emails, and do NOT answer their phone. If you dont believe me, these people are having the same problem.

I was finally able to contact the people over at JDM Ultimate by using their "chat function" since their phone's appear to be down and they dont reply to emails worth crap.

I am actually chatting with the person right now... well apperently the item was backordered and I am now being refunded the money. What a pain in the @$$!!!

Well, I personally like http://www.frmotorsport.com

They will price match any lower price you find and they deliver in 3 days max most of the time.
