haggis Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Just received my Jperformance stainless decat for glanza from tuningdevelopments. .. They forgot to include the " bolts included " Planning on fitting this tomorrow. Can I just recycle the bolts on the cat ? Reason I ask is that all the mounting holes on the decat flanges are threaded and I read on another post that he existing bolts on the cat are in fact studs ( threaded rod) Normally when you use stud, it doest thread into anything and in fact the nuts to the clamping Basically can I fit my decat tomorrow or do I need to get tuning developments to send the bolts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adzy Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I assume you mean the bolts between the cat and exhaust? As long as they're the same thread as the decat I can't see why you couldnt use the bolts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yes and from decat to exhaust Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gainzy Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 You can reuse the top nuts they just screw back on you will know when you take the cat off just buy 3 bolts/nuts to connect to exhaust in all honesty I would buy new genuine toyota gaskets and wait for td to send them rather than rush tomorrow sort of thing up to you though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yeh welll it came with gaskets Phoned tuning developments and he said the bolts are nothing special and to buy someBit peed off tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 From past experience wouldn't use any other gaskets bar oem one's but it's up to you. Yeah local hardware store still not the point if they stated it came with them let us know how you get on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Well got car on ramps and under today...Turns out when I got a custom full system exhaust they welded to the existing flange and got weld needs all over the nuts.Phoned then up and going in Tuesday for then to sort itLooks like this is growing arms and legs already Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DRiiFTiE Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Me and mate gonna grind off existing bolts tomorrow ... wish me luck "Goodluck" ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Well that was a Misson...Feckin hard to get to the bolts on the jperformance. Got them pretty tight so hopefully the gaskets won't blow.Turbo spooling a lot quicker which is great but feels like away to fuel cut when you put the foot down which has resulted in an engine light already.

StuDoc 72 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Standard actuator? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Yeh man should I get hks? Do you need rad out for actuator as I cant be fecked doing that again until I uprate the manifold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Think I'll get one and take the boost down a bit until I get EMU... don't want engine going pop Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Wheres your airfilter? If its down near the front just restrict it mate youll get less boost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 It's where the box filter was but is now a blitz cone filter ( loving it sounds awesome when suckling in air ) Will probably move to front to get a colder intake. Will the standard short route pipes you can buy fit the blitz? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haggis Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 I suppose I could switch the hi/lo boost back to factory and use the lo boost button ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
