Ok no go.
I got an AUDM cat, tried to put in. Its longer that the straight pipe that is currently installed. So you cant use an AUDM cat with a JDM catback
Can the AUDM Cat be cut to fit?

Hmmm. probably not a good idea to cut up a cat converter, maybe purchase a universal high flow cat and weld up the flanges to the correct length? thats what I'm doing anyway.
:)
Ok spoke to belco exhaust centre, they said abotu $400 fitted for a universal high flow cat. This way i will be able to use JDM headers later one :)
AUDM Cat fits JDM Catback if you are using AUDM Headers.
Either 2 things happened, your Exhaust has been cut to fit the test pipe, or your headers arent standard.

no i will set it straight for people that dont know
get rid off you aussie spec itr stuff it is shit enough said
the jdm b pipe is not he same lenght as the aus b pipe
the jdm b pipe is longer
if you want to upgrade to jdm spec items
and are tight on your budget
get jdm 4-1 headers 250-400 bucks
get a jdm cat 150 -200
this will bolt onto your existing jdm cat back
unless if it has been tampered with by a exhaust shop to fit your shit aussie itr headers
i bet it has been
dont say the toda headers are to dear the cost to go custom will add up close to what you want
labour getting flanges and etc will cost you in the long run
get the jdm 4-1 then SAVE for the toda headers
so what you will need to make your exhaust a bolt on job and you can do your self if you have some basic tools
any jdm header, jdm itr/ek9 2.5 " cat , and any jdm cat back exhaust
all are the same lenght and all are able to be bolted on to each other
so you can do it your self with the car on stands
dont forget to get a 2.5" donut flange for your headers
top of my head jdm cat is 30cm long oz one is 45cm long
Cheers mate.
My B pipe has not been tampered with as an exhaust shop didnt fit it, my mechanic did, and t was a straight bolt on. Im running a test pipe where there should be a cat.
My long term aim is to get Toda or J's Racing headers, but in the meantime I want to get a cat that will work now and when i get headers.
So I can either get a used JDM cat, or get an exhaust shop to make me up a new cat using a 100 cel one. All they need to do is a cut a section off the test pipe and weld the cat in its place. Then I should be able to use it when I get headers too yeah?
you havent posted up your set up so i cant comment
im guessing they would of to add a 3 bolt triangle flange to the test pipe to fit to the exhaust you have
and use a little 2.25 donut flange for your shit audm header ?
still be shit if that is the case as it still is a big bottle neck with the audm header
