So come to find out I have and exhaust leak and it's extremely rusted, was previously welded by previous owner, and is about to tear more hoels in it so I have to replace it with a catback....don't want to spend a lot of money and had some questions...
if there's no bung hole for secondary o2 sensor, is there a way to "trick the ecu" to think it's there and working properly so i can pass inspection?
if i were to have a bung hole welded in, would the check engine light come on and i will not pass inspection?
and is it ok to buy a cheaper japanesse one on ebay like this one(want it to last at least 7 years)...

shouldn't be any problems. and what year teg you got?

 

i have a 97' rs 2dr and when i see gsr catbacks for sale they say it won't work on anything else besides a gsr

 

from the cat to the b pipe(cat back) that might be your only problem. don't know off the top of my head if the outlets are the same or not.

 

the cats are different lengths on a gsr and ls/rs/itr so no it wont bolt up to your rs without getting a new cat or modifying the b pipe...all outlets are the same on the cats but the angle of the flange to the header are different also

 

if that is really 100% stainless steel like it says...then it should last you quite awhile

the OP should thank you, and i thank you. didn't remember, now i do. for now

 

sry didnt see til now because i was tied up yesterday playing with the ckf sensor trick...
anyhow thanks to everyone so far, defintely aprreciate it when spending hundreds of dollars....i suppose i'll order the tenrai one up top tomorrow? any other input would be crucial right now...

 

you can bung a secondary o2 sensor in the cat. the only other way around that is to get an o2 simulator, but i dont know much about them.

 

ok i might do that...
you guys think i should replace the bolts that hold these pieces together or reuse the old ones??

 

Go ahead and replace the bolts because it will save you in the long run if you ever want to remove it.

 

The 94-99 GSR coupe is the only one different.

94-01 RS, GS, LS, Type R coupes, all are the same lengths.
