Gutting A Cat On An 93 R33 Gtst

[dan_ep82]

i know my one splits in two,but is it possible to gut the catalic converter in the model stated above.I.e does it split in two

Thanks in advance for replies

oh and just to clarify this is in ireland and its not illegal to do it.

I've read some topics on it and see that some put a straight pipe through, my question is if i undo the exhaust on one side of the cat and drop it, can i just poke out the cat,and then just empty all the bits out.

im not sure about urs, but the last cat i saw to get gutted we had to bash it out!! not just "poke out the insides"

it would be ALOT easier to just drop the cat right out and do it. but better still...just buy a straight through pipe... OR better again... just buy a proper highflow cat...haha

I did mine a while ago on my old 33, its a bit of a bastard to get all the crap out, took me at least 2 hours, lots of drilling bashing and swearing but it did work, sounded better and spat flames after wards so all worth it if you've got a spare couple of hours, oh and don't forget you might need to borrow one come MOT time.

Cheers again

just save the headaches and put a straight through pipe or a highflow cat...

definitely go with a straight pipe that matches the diameter of your exhaust rather than gut the cat if you don't require one....

Straight pipe.

Using a cat, and its dimensions creates turbulence. So pipe equal to the exhaust size is ideal

dont bash out the cat, go to an exhaust place and get them 2 make a pipe same dimesions and bolt that in place, used cat it worth quite a bit of money throw it on ebay....
