Mr Plod found out you didn't have one?!OOOh,this is gonna hurt!i can't talk-my V Spec has a straight through JTCC-spec 90mm Nismo system,no cat',no muffler-just a tip to quieten things somewhat!It's louder at idle than the 3200rpm 92dB set limit...Fark!The reason I'm trying to find out about these substrate cat's is so I can have a road legal ''zorst" built up,but try not to drop too many kilowatts...gotta keep the peace sometimes!LTS J.

Hi all!I'm hearing good stuff about "metal substrate" catalytic converters,but I want more info...Anyone got any ideas?Apparently,they flow up to 30% more than a hi-flow cat',and they're smaller.Sounds good to me!LTS Jayce.

Dont believe the hype with all the high flow cat rubbish. After 3 years any cat is gonna cause a restriction on the car. I have a magnaflow cat on mine and it worked ok for the first 2 years with stock car but now it is totally screwed with new turbo setup and smells like rotten eggs everytime u give it the car a bit of stick.

Bikes dont use cat, either do racing cars, rayy cars, drag car etc.

Dont know how they can justify big fine for cars not having one when any car over 5 years will have a farked cat anyway.

Why not fit a removable silencer to your tip? and have a Cat shroud put where the cat goes.

Thats all the cops notice down here.

hell cars get roadworthy down here without cats

Why don't you just get a "super high flow" cat... i know some guys running this and it is basically a cat with a straight pipe through it... so you can't be dinked for it unless they take it off in the middle of the road. You prolly won't pass emissions, but like INASNT said, a cat stuffs up after a while anyway so what's the difference.

    • Duncan:- it affect both sides.  Driver side is worse.
    • That seems like a very special issue!  Does it affect both sides? Either way, I would disconnect the driver's side switch and see if it still happens, noting that might require removal of the whole door card which is a bit of a pain (it does on V37 and HY51)  
    • MBS206:- The windows start to slowly open themselves. GTSBoy:- Battery is new since Dec. 
    • I currently have a 2008 370GT Coupe, with the big brakes (Akebeno if I'm correct), and Its coming time to get new pads. Previously, I had a 2003 350GT Coupe with the stock sized brakes, not Brembos. I had custom wheels on it that were pretty open to the brakes, and when I first put the wheels on it, the rims where completely coated with brake dust. A few years after adding the new rims, I needed to change to pads on that car. I didn't do any research, but I told the mechanic of the problem with the brake dust. I also told him I didn't track the car or even drive around the streets harshley. But the dust was an issue. The mechanics changed the pads to a different compound, and the dust was GONE! The other change I noted was that when coming to a complete stop, instead of having to press harder on the pedal as I approached 0kph, I had to actually lift off a little to not come to a hard jerky stop.( My unfounded explanation is they became stickier as they heated by stopping ) Since I got my 370gt with big brakes, I noticed that that as I came closer to stopping, I had to press harder and harder to reach a full stop. I am not talking about hard, just harder. I brought the car in from another state, so when I had a blue slip done, I asked the mechanic what he thought of the brakes, and he thought they were brilliant. The only negative of these pads on the 350GT, was that they squealed when cold. So driving out of a shopping center carpark, it was a little embarrassing, as the brakes squealed, and I am sure people thought that I needed new brakes, when they were actually fresh. I have no idea of what type of compound they were on the 350gt, but whatever it was, I want to get the exact same on my 370GT. They weren't ridiculously expensive, and were replaced at the local JAX (which is no longer open), so I am certain they would be a pretty common big brand, off the shelf type/brand. My current mechanic suggested I need top get the rear pads changed soonish, but he suggested standard Brembo pads. Which I expect to behave the same as the current ones and not like the ones on the 350GT.  I don't think dust will be an issue on the 370GT. With the behaviour I describe above on the 360GT, does anyone have a suggestion of pad material that will act like the change I had done on the 350GT?
