In Early 1970s they became standard (over a preiod of time, which I believe by early 1980s ALL vehicles were required to run a catalytic convertor, the only exception to date being vehicles running solely on LPG and CNG)

Read ADRs.

Nope, cats became law in Australia in 1986 when it became law that all new vehicles had to run on unleaded fuel. The main reason cars didnt run them before, was because the lead in super fuel would f**k them in fairly short order by poisoning the chemical reaction, eliminating the ability to deal with NoX.

What I find interesting, is a badly tuned car running a cat, or a car with a badly positioned cat (ie, aftermarket one fitted to a "custom" exhaust) is actually at a greater risk of ejecting such lovely byproducts such as amonia and hydrogen sulphide (also known as rotten egg gas) Now, all the tree hugging stuff aside, that shit is poisonous, not just to the environment, but to us as well, and a decat piped car cant produce THAT shit no matter how badly tuned/popping hektik flames

All hail to Communism & Chair man Mao! :P

I have a decat. I run a decat to suffocate babies, rape single mothers, set fire to old people, blind and deafen as many children as I can, AND let's not forget - I'm the reason fuel prices are so high because the excess flow I actually get makes me run rich and smash more juice down. I've been stickered AND caught-out with a decat pipe by police actually sighting the pipe. Twice. I didn't receive any fines for said pipe. But it is illegal, and I am actually going to hell for it. Twice.

If I get fined or imprisoned for having it, I will cop it on the chin. Moralfags can bitch all they want. My car runs better with a decat than it will EVER run with a cat. News for you guys - every now and then, I run AVGAS. Try running avgas through a cat.

Very clever. You are definitely my hero. I think we should make you President of SAUWA. We should get you to be our spokesman on Today Tonight. You should lead a cruise to the WA Parliament to make your erudite views known to our government. I am sure they would immediately tell all cops to leave import drivers alone. In fact, I think you actually represent a generation. You have put it so well and clearly. You couldn't give a f#ck about anyone but you and take no responsibility for any of your actions. So let's recognise you for that.

All hail the chief.

Cheers.

P.S. Let me know when you reach maturity. Thanks.

P.P.S. I realise it might take a while. But I can wait.

I'm a poorkunt and can't afford a high-flow cat. I run a decat to suffocate babies, rape single mothers, set fire to old people, blind and deafen as many children as I can, AND let's not forget - I'm the reason fuel prices are so high because the excess flow I actually get makes me run rich and smash more juice down.

Twice.

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
