3" Hi-flow Cat Length?

[Birnie]

He guys/girls

Finally had some spare time and went to replace my old standard CAT with a new 3" hi flo job a got of ebay.

Nissan Cat of course. If you search ebay, it's the only purple one there. Says it's for R33 or R34, mild steel.

Anyways... took the old one off, checked em against each other, looking at the hole size mainly.. a bit of difference there so should be some gains made.

Go to put it on, it's frigin' longer than the standard! Bugga!

Old is 318mm long

New is 386mm long.

I must say his adds don't say anything about the size but i would expect it to be an easy replacement if advertised for an R33. Now i either need to sell it get a new one or refabricate the old (but good) exhaust???

What do you guys think?

Do you think the seller is in some way responsible?

Do i have a standard CAT to start with? (it says Catco)

Should i keep it and refabricate the exhaust or off load it and get the right sized one?

Anyone know the length of their 'standard Cat' ??

(or aftermarket one)

Thanks...Birnie

Buy a cat from BATMBL

yeh i agree, sounds a little weird how its a cat for an R33 and it dont fit straight in!!!!! then again maybe you dont have the standard cat/exhaust system on your car.

but either way try and get a refund, otherwise id say sell it and get one from BATMBL here on the forum.

Been looking into it with BATMBL thank guys.

Does anyone know the exact lenght of the standard cat?

Surely someone must have one sitting around?

Thanks guys,

The dude let me exchange it for a stainless steel one that is the right length. Pretty happy overall

Good price, looks ok, if it is a real cheapy, i'll guess I'll be replacing again soon haha

Now to put the little sucker on...again.
