Haha, did you bottom it out during the process?
I did that once when I had my S14, sparks went everywhere.

Muffler bearings are going bad. You might also want to try out an O-Pipe. It helps increase back pressure.

definitly the muffler bearings, the u-pipe is better than the o-pipe.

sparks? was your muffler dragging the ground?

haha, I just laughed because your first post was asking about sparks coming out of your tailpipe, and then your next question was what spark plugs to get for a ka. So my logic is "his car is sparking so he's going to stop the sparking with... spark plugs!"

ahahahaha, i know that's not why you were asking about spark plugs, but it still made me laugh.

..maybe it's your NOS.
