The main reason people replace the oil jet bolts is because they were improved after the 2002 model year. The revised oil jet bolts included four holes instead of two, which allowed more oil to flow through the oil jets. The second reason people replace the oil jet bolts is because they can actually break. There is a spring inside the oil jet bolt that ensures that oil pressure must exceed 28 psi before the oil jet bolt allows oil to pass through. When this spring breaks the oil jet bolt allows oil to pass through at all times and this can lead to low idle oil pressure. I’m replacing my oil jet bolts for the latter reason. Anyway, let's get to it.

For context, I'm believe I am banned for exposing Ballade's lightweight battery as a relabeled Alibaba battery (I was never told why I was banned).

06:23 Fitment Issues
07:46 Summary
tl;dr:
1. Ballade did not package these exhausts well (cheaped out on packaging, abusing USPS boxes).
2. Ballade claims this will fit on 06+ (it won't without modifications). Fitment on 00-05 is fantastic.
3. Otherwise, very solid replica.

Update: You can buy preshaved Raybestos rear brake pads from SpeedFreaksUSA. They advertise ST-43 on their site but they were able to have ST-47s made for me as well. You will likely need to give them a call. They should take care of you.
