guess the title speaks for its self. really liked the sound of their exhaust as well as some of the other parts they offered. Don't read or understand japanese so their catalogue wasn't much help either.

we are a dealer and can supply their full range of parts

not inexpensive at all, but their focul point is making the changes where they matter most, and on overall balance of setup

It looks like Mine's offers a HFC for the HR engines! The super catalyzerII--but it also says it is for DE engines as well. kinda confusing.

Hey Adam, do you know (or can you check with MINES) what the difference is b/w the sports catalyzer and the new super catalyzerII (besides the super being more expensive)--Is it better made/more free flowing? It lists the super catalyzer II as being 130 cell, but does not mention the cell count for the sports catalyzer.

It is a bit confusing, but hopefully this will clear it up The original Super Catalyzer is no longer offered. It was a denser cell and not as free flowing. Mine's just has not gotten around to removing the std. version from their site, but production has ended. Now they offer the Super Catalyzer II, which are offered in both DE (up to 2006 model year) and HR (2007 + ) engine versions. These fit US and JDM spec cars

thx for clearing that up adam. My question is I have a pair of power enterprise hfc that look very similar to the mines sports catalyzer (I think they are actually made by arc however), do u think it would be worth upgrading to the mines super catalyzer 2 (do u think I would see a decent gain in performance or probably not worth it?) thx!

I've really got no way to answer that as I'm not at all familiar with the PE ones

http://power-enterprise.co.jp/englis..._catalyzer.htm



Stock catalytic converters on Z33 VQ35DE engine have two ceramic catalyzers in series in one side, causing exhaust resistance.Power's Metal Catalytic Converter has a metallic catalyzer of 400cpsi(cel density) in each converter ,which results in lower exhaust resistance by 25%.This converter results in temperature is advanced by stainless steel covering metallic catalyzers, making them react soon to improve in cleaning exhaust gas.This product is recommended to be used in tandem with the Super Sonic EX Muffler.

then based on pure #s alone the Mines ones should flow about 3 times better
(based on lower cell count = less restriction)

BTW - cats are in stock in Japan - we can have them send direct to you if needed
