Yonaka just released a catback system for the first gen crv's. can be bought and shipped total for $238.99 from redline360.com. just giving the heads up if anybody else was interested

 

Thanks for the info so its only obx and yonaka that's still available in full stainless for 1st gens now?

 

as far as i know they are the only companies that offer a full system. mugen made twin loop axle backs but that's about it

 

obx?

 

pics?

 

obx is a brand you can get online or on ebay. pricing is similar to the yonaka system.

here is pics of the yonaka system

 

It looks crush bent, is it crush bent?

 

no that is definitely mandrel bent

 

hey fellowsss!!!!!!!!!! YEAUP! :d rink::thumbup :

They sure did!! Been talking to them, Yonaka and they sure did said they were coming out with it got the news from them myself was going to log in and post about it to all yall CRV fellows but glade someone found it out too! Got the news when I was in school! I will be ordering mines first chance I get tomorrow! AND will eventually find time to post my updates


P.s. Good thing I contacted them about the crv exhaust system otherwise my other option was going to be the obx

oh BTW: anyone running any aftermarket CAT? Looking to get one as well that is oem fit to go along with the new yonaka exhaust system. But yeah lmk which CAT you have and if you do any fitment/issues if any Thanks! I'll be searching and looking around as well aside from school

 

Sweet! Must be the reflection and the angle of the pic but that's good news!

I've been running the magnaflow direct replacement without issues for a couple of years, exact same fit as oem!

 

thanks for input ...Started looking around here...do you remember the part #? was it part #23767??? Wanted to see a actually photo of how it looks/o2 sensor location etc can't find none so far...had any issues on o2 sensor installment/fitment?...got any photos of yours/current condition etc? How's quality of it holding up etc? So no emission issues so far? Lmk if nothing else comes up in search might just go with it as of now.....saw few other "oem" fit ones but kinda iffy on quality at ~$100 but I guess you do get what you pay for

 

My friend has a Magnaflow direct replacement cat on his 1st gen, he kept getting a CEL after drives of 50 miles or more for secondary o2 sensor, I put in an oxygen sensor spacer and light hasnt been back on since then. Dont know if its as efficient as OEM and thats maybe why it kept tripping the CEL.

 

^Yeah I'm hoping I don't run into such issues when I get one...that's why I would like feedbacks from anyone if they have one or another different brand etc. as I won't have any access to weld on an o2 extension if it's needed etc (let alone time as is with school )...so yeah really hoping it's direct fit/plug and play

But right now cheapest I can find one for is through advance auto parts with their promo going on at about $150 (not including tax?) which is not too bad. But if I do go with that I got to order/buy it before the 8th cuz that's when the promo ends...

 

I used two spark plug non foulers and drilled one out and put them in, no welding needed. a CEL for secondary o2 isnt really a big deal in my experience and didnt result in any drive ability issues.

 

Yeah, that's a good point. The Magnaflow DID throw a code from the rear O2. I also fixed it with spark plug defoulers, drilling one out and spacing it further away with a second defouler (you will buy them in a pair from the parts store anyway).

OR, you can buy this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/oxygen-sensor-o2-02-header-bung-pipe-spacer-18mm-thread-M18-x-1-5-HHO-extender-/141198185726?pt=Race_Car_Parts&hash=item20e01154fe&vxp=mtr
This is the cheapest route to take to have a good cat and also no code. I don't think you'll avoid 02 spacers unless you go oem $$$$.

But as far as looks, design, and fitment with the Mafnaflow....it's exactly the same as oem.

 

I ordered mine yesterday, woohooo

 

Now tell them to make a 4wd 97-01 header.

 

How loud do you think this model is going to be.?

 

^ It shouldn't be loud..just google/youtube the other yonaka exhaust system that people have on their civic/tegs etc. I'm sure it'll sound about the same vs the obx one



Thanks for inputs guys! I think it's by far my BEST option even if I did ran into the o2 problem...so looks like I'll be ordering the magnaflow one be end of this week!


I already asked them about that as well..they said no plans of any being made atm but who knows maybe they might change their mind idk? I hope they do. Would be sweet!

 

Yonaka is ALMOST comparable to the RS-R exmag

 

Took nonames advice got just
A obx forza muffler all cat backs sound the same on an auto ( rice rocket ) just my two cents

 

^ what I do not want (rice rocket) but to me the yonaka system sounds more closer to stock which is what I'm looking for! would have went with either another oem system or obx (cost wise?) and have a custom muffler put on it? but then again that's if I had no other choice...but now I do! sooooooo


...Anyways just got done ordering them both! (magnaflow cat & yonaka exhaust system)

i'll update my thread when I have both (cat&exhaust) and clean up the V from this nasty winter (hopefully weahter is decent for me to be able to put the system on!)

 

Tell them to knock off OBX, since they're all knock off companies anyways
