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).

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
