looking at the stillen catback online, it appears to not have a hanger right after the catalytic converter. i know a lot of people have the stillen catback on their SE-Rs/Specs, im not sure if it does have the hangar or not but if it doesn't does that cause exhaust cracking or does it hold up fine?

The one pictured may not be the right one. Other Sentras don't have a hanger after the cat.

Regardless, given that other Sentras don't, I don't see why not having one would be an issue. I have an SE with an exhaust and it's held up to all sorts of stupidity (rocks, driveways, etc).

Nothing, other than the fact that their mufflers don't look THAT great on cars. They look too generic.

i think the nismo exhaust looks just as stock as the stillen muffler. i like that look because to me it looks like a better quality exhaust system as opposed to all those "weed wacker" type bolt ons you see on some other imports out there.

I LOVE cannister mufflers for some odd reason.

the only canister mufflered exhaust i like the sound and look of is the greddy ti-c. i'm trying to determine what i should get between that, stillen, brm, injen, skunk2 or the oh so expensive nismo as far as exhausts are concerned. input...?

I did, and I tried BRMs website...and it doesn't work. I honestly think if someone doesn't come out with an exhaust other than those two companies by March I'm going to have a shop do mine. I know exactly what I want and can fully detail a drawing for them.
