Hey people,

Just wondering if i was to gut the cat on my 32 GTST would it make a huge difference to the exhaust volume?

Just thinking this might be better than installing a Decat pipe because it will still look stock...

Help and advice please.

Cheers

Ilegal. Not to mention the HUGE fines the EPA can sting you with.

If you want a loud exhaust get a 3.5" cat back.

I realise it's ILLEGAL...

I'm not looking for loud. I'm looking for un restricted flow.

I will be gettin a 3" split dump pipe and already have a 3" cat back system

Okiday...

Well fanx for da advice.

the stock cat wont cause a HUGE restriction if its in good nick, but if its 100k+ km old then they can become clogged or colasped and then they cause big problems. Most of the time a hiflow cat is more than enough, but if your short on cash heres what you do....

Dont rip the cat out and just smash the guts out, this will make the car sound like crap, if you look how the cat is on the inside you'll see why. Take the cat out, smash the guts out with a pipe and hammer then take it to a dodgy exhaust shop and get them to press in some pipe the same inlet and outlet diameter of the cat. This way the cat will flow as good as a straight piece of pipe, and most people wont have a clue that its been gutted cause it still looks like a cat.

I use to have no cat and only one muffler in my 3SGTE celica and it passed emisson tests...

*i dont condone gutting cuts, i run a cat with all my cars now :happy:

      Hey Kaz, Unfortunately I am not at home currently and wont be for a few more months so I do not have access to my files or CAD. And at this point I prefer to keep the files to myself as I want to potentially make a few more pairs and see if they will sell within the EU before openly marketing them. But the way it's shaped and how small it is, I don't think you can fit both an indicator and a fog light onto the same surround, unless they were very small LED-type clusters.

      Replacement clutch recommendation for an R32 GTR

      By Ryno · Posted

      I’ve just installed a Uniclutch sport into my R32. I’ve been blown away by it… it drives like a stock Toyota Corolla. It doesn’t make sense to me that a performance clutch can drive this well. I was about to pull the trigger on a Nismo Coppermix twin plate when I discovered the Uniclutch and decided to give that a shot instead. They’ve changed the game and I couldn’t be happier.    I was previously using an Extreme cushioned button clutch with lightened flywheel. I’m still using the same lightened flywheel with the Uniclutch.
