Hi guys, doing another metalcat group buy over at aus300zx.com so wondering if anyone here is interested? The only size I can do at the moment is 3.5" due to limited stock coming over from the US. Also due to complications with the last GB i ran metalcat no longer offer a flanged (bolt on) version of the cat, only unflanged. This is an easy job for your exhaust shop or you may wish to weld straight to dump pipes to eliminate weight (flanges are heavy) and potential leaks. Hopefully you all know these cats and have seen the ads in Zoom etc

Features

  • Polished Stainless Steel Construction
  • Unique 200 cell design
  • EPA and CARB compliant with numbers stamped onto the body of the cat
  • Street Legal
  • Outflows the competition

Price: $300 including delivery anywhere in AUS

Stock Availability: At the moment there are 50 cats on their way from the US via air-freight so they should be available by the end of October

Timegrame for Group Buy: Cutoff date will either be when the cats land or when I get 7 buyers, whatever happens first

Supplier: I'm buying direct from the AUS importer PSI

Please PM me to confirm an order, i will need 100% of the money upfront so please feel free to ask for any details phone number/address/etc

Also just to clarify there is no minimum number needed for this group buy as I alreayd have the required number of orders from the aus300zx.com forum. This is just a chance to add to that order.

any idea when these are gonna be sent? they arrived in aus yet?

Hi mate, no not in AUS yet they were ordered a couple of weeks ago. Don't know when they will land but they are coming via air-freight so no big delays there, just a matter of customs doing their thing... As soon as I have them I will send yours out.

Update -had an email from PSI these are due next week. There are only 50 of these coming in for the whole of AUS and then no more. If you want one please get your money in ASAP while I can still add to my order.

So far I have only received payment from TTOMIE

Might be interested, so these are the Legit "metalcat" cat 3.5"

Just read a few worrying stories about them :s

Yep they are the legit metalcat brand imported by PSI Australia. The ones with warranty...

I have organised two group buys on these (close to fifty cats in total) and have yet to hear of any problems. I've been using them on my own car (300zxTT) for around two years without issue.

Thanks Heaps Do you know what sort of a performance hit I will take I have a 32gtr 3.5" zaust on there now currently no cat.

Cheers I think i will be in I will confirm, when do you need to know by ?

Hi mate sent you a PM. Honestly I don't know what difference it will make on a dyno compared to open pipe, I would be very interested to see actually.

Need the money ASAP as once they land in AUS they'll be sent out to me and I won't be able to add to the order.

Can you confirm the warranty offered is full replacement and not "replacement at reduced cost" which seems to be the line Metalcat have been taking recently.

I only know of two metallic substrate cat manufacturers that offer no questions asked replacements, Metalcat aren't one of them.

If however PSI are offering the warranty, then I can't see a problem :D

Have sent an email to clarify -never heard of a reduced cost warranty but I've asked them just to be sure.

    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
