can you get one at a junk yard? if so then you should be able to pick one up for cheap.

I'll sell you the front cat out of my 98 for 500 bucks + shipping. You can get a direct fit for the rear for 100 bucks. The front cat is the most expensive by far. Or make me an offer.

BTW - What is on your car right now?

my cat my cat right now is hollowed because i think my greddy header crushed the insides and it crumbled so i had to hollow it and now i gotta get it smoged for registation, so im in a bad situation, but 500 is kinda high because i can get a brand new from the dealer for 650 because i get employee discount but that high too. i was hoping i can get one for cheap but dont you need yours or you got a sr20? also i tried getting one from a junk yard but its illegal to buy a used cat so the guy wouldnt sell it to me i was so pissed i begged him. lol

You know who you need to ask.........NISTECH. Ask him if he can find a different part number for the california cat, and what configuration the cats should be in for that state. I think what you will find is that you have a pre-cat and post cat, each doing different jobs. So you are actually going to need 2.

What configuration do you have on the vehicle currently?

I might know someone that has a set of cats in cali, that could ship to you. I will email him today.

So only the front cat is hollowed or the one under the car also?

I am installing a header this weekend and replacing my factory cat with a high flow cat that goes behind the header.
