Just like stealing powerlines to get the copper wire - theives in the US have learned from metalurgy 101 that catalytic converters contain all sorts of melt downable goodies. I'm sure its pretty isolated (ie: a dodgy fellow with a hacksaw - Age?), but let no one say I don't bring you interesting snippets of dinner table conversation ;)

I say prevent crime - run cat free.

someone you know is a low life scum bag :D

Please explain?

Nothing low life about swapping factory cats out for aftermarket ones when doing exhaust systems.

Jumping to conclusions?

      thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price

      Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
