Cat

[glanza_gal]

Erm......... not a yaris driver, but my cousin needs a cat replacement for her X reg SR, anyone know where i can get one for cheap or how much they are? Apparently £800?!?!?! bulls*&t from main dealer and she can't afford that.

please help.

[NE.]

Not sure myself. But i do know you could easily buy a full sports cat system from envy for less than half of that. 800 quid is rediculous!

[Yaris_Tsport]

800!!!!!!!a sports cat is 360 from envy i think lol.

[glanza_gal]

i exaggerated, it's only £400 but crap thats expensive.

[armoredfist2002]

it's expensive because it's from the manifold to the backbox.

There are no joins in the exhaust anywhere in the middle.

would be cheaper getting a cat from somewhere or even a sports cat, cutting the old one out and welding the new one in.

sports cat? whats the difference? it's not like a decat is it that wont pass mot.

sports cat? whats the difference? it's not like a decat is it that wont pass mot.

Nope a sports cat is still fully legal, will pass MOT, etc. It's still a catalyst, just lets gasses flow through quicker than a normal one!!

I have cat if you want it is 2nd hand tho!

Done 33k miles been off for 6 months as i got a sports cat

[glanza_gal]

how much you want to sell it for? and will it fit a X reg yaris SR?? can't remember ur reg, but i don't know much about yaris's

[forde]

You can pass MOT fine without a cat in most cases as modern engines are good on emissions anyway.

What engine is in this yaris?

You could just get an exhaust place to make you a decat pipe and it would be a lot cheaper. Would sound better too

Or if you really want a cat go to a breakers.

My cousins yaris is a 2000 model, SR 1.3i with t-sport front, and she took it to service and toyota said that her cat has gone and needs replacing. So if Yaris-SR-kid could please let me know how much you are selling and if it fits a X reg yaris, please let me know asap and arrange to meet you :)

Cheers

[armoredfist2002]

it doesn't matter if it fits as it will more than likely need to be welded in anyway.

Unless he has all the pipework.

[forde]

if its only a 1.3 it shud still pass mot fine with a decat

[glanza_gal]

all cars over J Reg are needed of a CAT for mot :)

[Yaris SR Kid]

Mine is feb 2001 mate so X-reg!

Yes will need to be welded in!

[Woody27]

needs welding in? I thought there were 4 sections? header, cat section, mid section, back box? The envy kit comes in two sections doesn't it?

[Yaris SR Kid]

Envy kit only works if you just have back box mate were as i have powerflow cat back (backbox and middle section) so just needed to order cat element (actual cat) from envy instead of cat section/midsection

[sphinktar1988]

well mine has no cat and it failed its mot so i dnt think a decat wud work :S

[Woody27]

O right, i thought you ordered the cat with flexi section and flange for manifold and then from cat to where it joins the mid pipe (i.e. 1 of the 2 parts of the sports cat kit)

[steve-w]

this is the system i fitted on mine a year ago http://www.buypartsby.co.uk/exhausts_detai...p?recordID=3057

Just noticed its a 1.3 you want so this one might not go. give em a call if you can't get one. They can source em in

[glanza_gal]

cheers people for ur help,been useful, am seeing what yaris sr kid cat is like, because he said he will need to be welded on, it's a bit worrying of a job as i thought the car just sits in and bolted on :)

[Yaris SR Kid]
