did not pass emission

[THEARCHITEK]

well car did not pass emission due to that it does not has a catalytic converter ummm idk how the catalytic looks on this car n how much does it go for... does any one know?? or show me a pic where it goes or looks like ... thnx

If you have the 5SFE, the cat bolts right onto the exahuast manifold.

[THEARCHITEK]

yeah 5sfe .. u have any idea how much they go for ?

[TOYOPARTSMAN]

$447.93 MSRP, TN MEMBER $348.32. Not a whole lot of mark up on this item either.

25508-74090

25508-74100 for CA SPEC car

25576-74030 gasket.

Wouldn't a universal high-flow cat work though? Just about any muffler shop carries them.

[THEARCHITEK]

wtf?? wow really dat is freaking expensive, is dere a way i could just beat emission instead?

[TOYOPARTSMAN]

With the Cat missing, I highly doubt it. But I do wish you luck and if you can figure it out, there are a whole lot of people in here that will be knocking on your door.

i hope so, wen i bought it the guy put headers n downpipe n the downpipe is really long so i cant just put a universal cat on a pipe n hook it up ... idk wat to do

You won't pass emissions without a cat. Go to EBay and buy a small high flow cat.
and have it welded in. You may have to change some piping.
Or if you have the stock exhaust sytem, put it back on. But as old as the cat may be, it may not pass either.

I can see the English language is really failing in this thread.....


I had the same problem when I built my MK1.5 MR2 a few years ago when MA had emissions. I bought a Magnaflow 3-Way/Hi-Flow cat from summit racing. They go for about $50-$60. You could probably have it welded in for another $50.

The stock one won't bolt up to the header you have, so I'm not sure why you're going that route.

Buy a Magnaflow OBDII cat (or another brand if you can find one cheaper).

Magnaflow rear OBDII cat for $97 NEW

Part # listing for converters at Magnaflow

The front cat they list isn't the main cat like it should be (listed as a pre-cat), so just buy the rear one. You'll pass with flying colors if nothing else is wrong with your engine.

Summit Racing has cats in the $50.00 range.
They may be enough to get you passed.
