I am planning to machine a piece of stainless to sit inside the cat perfectly then weld in. finishing buy smothing off with a die grinder.

I guess it would be what you call a really high flowing cat :P

Spend a few hundred now and get a decent cat, or pay $10,000 later on for punching the cat out, i know which one i'd be doing.

qft.

Get a good exhaust shop to make you up an exhaust from turbo back, better still get one to make one from cylinder head back - they will want to know things like cam timing and turbo specifics, and it will probably cost a fair whack - But you'll have the best performance you are going to get on the street.

Also remember how people think. If you're driving around a show pony that just screams "book me" (or "race me" - they are the same thing) you are always going to get more hassles from your local law enforcement department.

You can have a performance exhaust with a cat, you just have to go about it the right way - like most things in life.

I would suggest that all of you who have or planning to punch out your cat go to the movies and see "An Inconvenient Truth" starring Al Gore. Or at least watch the trailer on yahoo or something. Freaking stirring stuff. It took a movie for me to actually stand up and give a shit about global warming...

Am i gonna join greenpeace or joing amnesty international or something? Hell No. But I will do my part to help prolong the life of this small planet.

"An Inconvenient Truth" = typical propaganda

lets leave that alone...

as for cat punching, well i had a 2.5" gutted on my car and changed to a 3" high-flow and noticed no difference in power

i even have the gutted 2.5" cat sitting my garage (in brisbane) if anyone wants to take it off my hands for $25 :P

I'm glad to see your doing your part to help global warming by intentionally losing your liscence. Well Done!!!

I have all 12 points on my licence thanks :D

Oh, and I also have a high flow perfomance catalytic converted... and last time I heard I couldn't lose points off my drivers licence for punching cats in the face...

So ummm... what the? ...what's with the hostility... hippy :) :lol:

Sorry Wilch...got you confused with mass_iv. You guys have such similar avatars!!!! No Hostility here...to you or mass.

Unless ur runnin big power a 3" high flow will do fine IMO. i have a pipe runnin through my cat on mine, and it was noticibly different from changing, still has the 02 sensor on the top so it looks like its still a cat...

the sound is mad, and either way getting attention from the cops from that sound is the last thing i gotta worry about since it happens as soon as they see the car, let alone hear it or even see under hood...

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
