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.

    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
