its a $10'000 fine for this both the
owner and fitter!!! But only if your caught heheh. A good 3" cat
will not restrict power anyway so its best to be 100% legal either that or
plead ignorance- insanity

O well. You win some, u lose some. Anyone use
the "pipe thru the cat" system by knocking out the inside of
the cat and welding a pipe in. Very illegal and i think theres
quite a large fine for anyone caught with it. ScottDavo

Subject: Re: Cat Converters....
I'm in the process of
engineering my FJ, I've rung around and spoken to several engineers
who all stated to me that a cat was required because the motor was
originally fitted with one. When I asked those same engineers
about some cars I knew they had engineered in previous years, and
that they had passed them without cat converters fitted, all stated
to me that the EPA was clamping down on emissions and they could no
longer certify cars without the cat's
fitted. Wardy

Subject: Cat
Converters.... OK,
i lost a bet today with my boss. I am down a carton of VB. I
seem to remember a while back on the list that if you put a new
engine in an old car, the cat converter is not required by
law. The car is a datsun 240z and the engine is a Toyota
Supra 2.5L twin turbo. So i rang up the RTA and they said
it does need a cat converter because the exhaust system has to
be the same as the engine originally had. So i was
wondering if any of you FJ or SR 1600 blokes have a cat or have
spoken to an egineer about it??? ScottDavo
