i just got a kakimoto decat pipe for a 180sx sr20det and have noticed that there is nowhere on it to hook up the sensor that normally goes into the standard cat. if i leave this sensor out what effect if any is it going to have on the car? will it create problems?

no problems....just leave it out

had the same pipe on my old 180sx, just cable tie the sensor out of the way, all that will happen is you'll get the cat warning light on the dash all the time, it wont cause any problems though

i recon nissan had it in there for a reason. anyone know where i could get one of those stainless weld in fittings to accomodate the sensor and then i could modify the pipe myself. anyone know the diameter and tread type and size etc off hand?

Your reply is very funny mate, i'm sure its there for the very same reason... the car had a CAT!!! that you just tossed in the bin.... pmsl.

All it does is tells you little light on the dash to come on and tell you that your overheating your cat....so, your right, you've made a massive mistake put your cat back on your car and leave it the way nissan made it...

Very funny.
