Dreaded catalytic converter questions
USA import 2005 Frontier Crewcab Nismo model 4x4 with 4.0 L engine
161,000 miles on the engine
Previous owner replaced the oem primary cats with aftermarket and butchered the welding job.
Nissan and local shops want around $2200 to replace the primary cats, $3500 for all 4 cats replaced
So I looked at Rock Auto and they have some Walker and Eastern catalytic converters that I could buy for a lot less.
Nissan Parts Puller LLC will sell me a set of 4 cats made by Global Exhaust for $660 canadian
Has anyone used Global exhaust cats
Or
Does anyone else have any other recommendations
I am located in British Columbia if that helps at all
Thanks

Re: Dreaded catalytic converter questions
Do you have a lordco near you? I had good luck with them when I was out there.
Never heard of that brand before, assuming they're from NPP they are used?
