Hi all,

I've done a search and didn't get a definitive answer.

I'm after a high-flowing cat converter for my Stagea M35 that is a direct fit, that is with flanges already.

Can someone point me into the right direction. The Kenobi ones on ebay seems cheap and appear to be decent quality.. but unfortunately doubt come with flanges.

Thanks guys..

I wouldn't expect you to find anything like that. Why not just get your local exhaust shop to make up the flanges for you? Or ask Scotty?

Do you still have the stock midpipe with the big and heavy box of baffles in the middle of the car?

There is 2 cats in the M35. 1 in the dump pipe and 1 in the front pipe as Scotty said. There is NO "main cat"

They also don't have a flanged cat like the skylines and S chassis Nissans have. The M35 cat is moulded into the dump pipe and welded in as part of the front pipe.

You will need to replace the dump pipe with an a/market dump to eliminate this first cat and get a new front pipe made to ditch the 2nd factory cat and then you can either not run a cat in it or get an a/market cat welded in line.

thanks guys.

yes I was referring to the main cat.. after the front pipe..

cheers

As slippy said, there should be only 2 cats (dump and front pipe).

That "main cat" as you call it, is a massive resonator to quieten the exhaust.

You can replace this with a bolt on "cat-back" exhaust.

Hi guys..

Thanks for the input guys and apologies for any confusion.

What I'm doing is replacing the entire system with a new aftermarket 3" dump pipe, front pipe and a Kakimoto R cat back.

The front pipe will not have a cat but the Kakimoto R does have a resonator.

I assumed there would be a cat after the front pipe.. so glad I asked..

Thanks for the help guys.. now deciding whether to go weld a cat to the front pipe..

Hmmm....

Do it!, These cars need a high flowing cat - fumes are fkn stinky and needs to breathe as much as possible.

These cats work nicely (I changed from a de-cat front pipe to a front pipe with one of these).

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
