I have a 2021 Kicks SR Premium and I’m building a custom exhaust, but can’t get these bolts off, it’s connecting the mid pipe to the exhaust manifold. It seems to be a 6mm E-Torx with a 10mm hex cover. I can’t get the cover to budge, and I’ve tried dozens of thin wall s-torx but none are thin enough to fit. I don’t want to chop it because I want to be able to put the factory pipes back on in case any warranty issues come up.
Thanks in advance!!

Sorry for the late reply, apparently you need moderator approval to post links. I was trying to post the link to the tool but it's fine you can just google the part. Otherwise, let me know if anything.

Hey,

That's awesome; I had a custom axle-back performance exhaust done for my Nissan Kicks (no pipes were cut for the same reason you don't want to cut.) Unfortunately, I didn't get a whole custom exhaust, but even a custom axle-back made this 130hp car roar; I recommend it. Regarding how to remove that bolt, Nissan uses odd bolt sizes, so not many options will work. So I will include a complete breakdown of the Nissan Kicks Exhaust, which also states bolt sizes. In addition, Nissan recommends using power tools and using a unique Nissan Tool for the Exhaust System (J-38365).

Good Luck.


Any modifications to the Exhaust technically void some aspect of the warranty
