anyone with ultimate cats that can provide feedback on performance and fit would be great....any other suggestions for cats are welcome too i have a fujitsubo y-pipe and plan to stay NA...btw

thanks all, rw...out

 

Z1 Auto has them. PM him for his opinion. I would be interested in hearing more about UR Cats. The build quality looks better than Crawford, Kentix, and RT.

What about the NISMO SPORT CATS? I notice one signature that mentioned them.

 

It's very strange that more people don't have them - they are beautiful pieces!! EVO owners run them almost exclusively!!

 

the nismo's are quite expensive as are most of their products...i want to stay in the 400-450 range

also, i will not buy the RT's based on past experience....terrible fitment, customer service and quality; the only thing positive was the performance

i am look for fitment and quality first followed by performance...and if thats good than usually the customer service will be as well

 

Just PM'd Adam at Z1 and he made sure that fitmemt was perfect before shipping. I think I will be getting them, but he said that they are made to order.

I believe Fairlady Z in Japan has the Nismo hi-flo cats, but they run about 1000 to 1200 for a set

 

yes I got them on my car, as do a few others here as well. I am really surprised they have not been better sellers. As JRotary said, just about everyone with the Evo's runs their cats or test pipes, and we have never had a single issue with fit or finish with them.

I obviously have just about every aftermarket part at my disposal, being a vendor and a dealer for many companies, and I chose the Ultimate's for my own car for the simple reason that they were promised to fit perfectly )whcih they did), and carry a 5 year 50k warranty....that right there was reason enough to make the plunge.

With all the negatives I hear about noise, fitment, and general quality issues with the RT ones, I am surprised people still get them. We stopped selling RT about a year ago for these same reasons.

Also, regarding price, the Ultimate's are among the most affordable on the market as well!

Any questions, please let me know. I will be heading down to SEMA IAS at Atlantic City early tomorrow morning, so wont be posting again till next week. Anyone who is going to show, please come by and say hi to us - my car will be displayed in Cusco's booth.

What's the inlet and outlet piping size of the Ultimate Cats? Also, who's core do they use? or do they make their own?

 

The Ultimate Cats use Carsound. Check the Z1auto website for more details.

I plan to use these cats for future upgrade. I am saving for Nismo R-tune Headers. The R-tune header voids the factory cat warranty, but like Adam said the Ultimate cat carrys a 5yrs/50000mi warranty. Problem solved.

 

Adam,

Is it possible to get a group buy on the Ultimate Racing cats? It looks like interest is peaking. Maybe with a GB, the cats will become as popular on the Z as it is on EVOs.

 

i am down with that so that's two right there!

have fun at sema z1....and if possible can you give sizing specs on the ultimate cats, thanks
