They make ugly strut-tower braces and stuff....but they generally hate us. Their mostly a "Z" company anyways.

Why bother with them when we have so many other places to shop at?

Point taken. I have a buddy w/an SER Spec-V with a cold-air intake. I thought they were rediculously expensive, considering their velocity stack+filter is $170+. I just found it odd they have support for all other Nissan/Inf vehicles but no 240, that's all.

The only thing that Stillen is good for in regards to 240s is that they're the only US retailer that I know of for the GAB struts.

They also carry the GAB springs and coilovers, but I believe those are more widely available.

Other than that, why bother.

Coming from the Maxima community, Stillen is often, if not always referred to as $tealin'.......

I did notice on the Stillen site that he did have high flow Catalytic Converters for the 240SX. http://www.stillen.com/Sportsc...age=1

Anyone know if this is a good product? I thought Stillen was a good company, being one of the NICO sponsors, but I am no longer sure.

no great loss. Stillen isn't all that. I used to have some of their stuff on my Z but currently have nothing due to the fact that just about everything else out performs their products. Not to mention that 90% of the "stillen brand" stuff isn't made by stillen.
