Just add a straight pipe. Since air care only reads the OBD codes for many model years, as long as it doesn't throw a code for no cat, then you'll be fine.

Really? n00b.

Especially older CC's, they are full of platinum and other precious metals. Places even buy CC's from older cars even if they are dead.

And I know exactly who turned on an interior light overnight... Stupid son!

I've seen it happen to two customers, in the years I've been working at my shop. Both in Vancouver. Doesn't surprise me too much, since it's not that hard to get to.

They hit my buddie's Tracker on 96th and 192.
Fuckers.

They get $50 for an oem cat, which is going to cost you a lot more to replace.

damn that sucks. Is your truck parked outside your house? Do meth heads stay in your area, or do they actually trek to where the private houses are to do this shit??

any one here ever cut open a catalytic converter and got platinum inside??
I try to search other forum if anyone has done it just for fun
how much platinum are we talking about in one cat?

StylinRed
02-22-2011, 01:51 PM
supposedly there's about 1.9g in a cc and you cant just open it and take it out you have to use some chemistry to extract it

(quick browse at finishing.com first result from google search)

damn that's high. they probably just saw a high ass truck and thought to themselves "hey easy cat"

sucks to hear man. i remember hearing about this back in high school from my auto teacher (people used to donate their old junkers for us to work on and he'd take the cat and sell them for pretty good money) but i've never heard it actually happening

Shit I'm in the 104 ave and 141st area. Most I've heard of in my complex reports was crackheads breaking into cars just to steal thing like gloves and ipods left in the open.

Sucks to hear since I hadn't heard of any cc thefts in a while.

I took it it budget and they told me that in the past year they have had about 20 4runner's the same year with the same thing. It seems like someone is going around targeting them on purpose since I guess the value is worth more. Bill would of been $683.78 if I wouldn't of gone through ICBC.
