Hi all,

I've done a search and didn't get a definitive answer.

I'm after a high-flowing cat converter for my Stagea M35 that is a direct fit, that is with flanges already.

Can someone point me into the right direction. The Kenobi ones on ebay seems cheap and appear to be decent quality.. but unfortunately doubt come with flanges.

Thanks guys..

I wouldn't expect you to find anything like that. Why not just get your local exhaust shop to make up the flanges for you? Or ask Scotty?

Do you still have the stock midpipe with the big and heavy box of baffles in the middle of the car?

There is 2 cats in the M35. 1 in the dump pipe and 1 in the front pipe as Scotty said. There is NO "main cat"

They also don't have a flanged cat like the skylines and S chassis Nissans have. The M35 cat is moulded into the dump pipe and welded in as part of the front pipe.

You will need to replace the dump pipe with an a/market dump to eliminate this first cat and get a new front pipe made to ditch the 2nd factory cat and then you can either not run a cat in it or get an a/market cat welded in line.

thanks guys.

yes I was referring to the main cat.. after the front pipe..

cheers

As slippy said, there should be only 2 cats (dump and front pipe).

That "main cat" as you call it, is a massive resonator to quieten the exhaust.

You can replace this with a bolt on "cat-back" exhaust.

Hi guys..

Thanks for the input guys and apologies for any confusion.

What I'm doing is replacing the entire system with a new aftermarket 3" dump pipe, front pipe and a Kakimoto R cat back.

The front pipe will not have a cat but the Kakimoto R does have a resonator.

I assumed there would be a cat after the front pipe.. so glad I asked..

Thanks for the help guys.. now deciding whether to go weld a cat to the front pipe..

Hmmm....

Do it!, These cars need a high flowing cat - fumes are fkn stinky and needs to breathe as much as possible.

These cats work nicely (I changed from a de-cat front pipe to a front pipe with one of these).

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
