Hi I'm need of a down pipe and second cat for my 2011 sti sedan.
As the last owner has fitted a used down pipe that came from a 07 sti hawk,and due to being shorter than the original down pipe they have cut and extended the centre pipe to meet up with down pipe.

so if any sharkeye owners have one lying around can you pm me desperate need.thanks

 

dont have a downpipe unfortunately but would you have a pic of the underside of your car to see just how much they had to extend the centre section by to fit against an 07 downpipe

 

subscribed for the pics if there are any

 

I'll try,but in the mean time can anyone confirm,if the sti hatchback down pipe and cat is the same as the sedan 2011 down pipe and cat as I have been offered a hatch one of a 60 plate.,from what I can tell on other sites the part number are different but I don't know, please desperate I need to know 100% before purchasing as its not cheap..

 

I've got a spare 2nd cat from my 2008 STI. Bought a bypass pipe before as was only running 1 cat before going decat.
If it is suitable for your car we can sort something out.

Thanks I was looking up part numbers of a subaru us site but they seem different to the ones shown above..
the one I have been offered is off a 60 plate so 2010,going by the above yr brackets it looks as it will not fit,but I'm requesting the seller to see if he can find the part numbers on the units.
on a second note I've just had another seller say they have one of a 2013 sedan bit more money but would you agree don that would be the safer bet.

 

Thought you were from the US calling it a sedan.

 

US part numbers will be different as they have different requirements.

Subaru years do not follow the calendar which is why you should always quote the model year not the year it is first registered in.
A 60 plate car could be a MY11 (mine is a MY11 purchased in November 2010 and therefore would be on a 60plate). just need to check if it has the front bumper refresh or the 10th character of the VIN is "B"
If an "A" then MY10

 

Don would you agree if my model is a gvf on chassis sticker and the donar car is a gvf and both have the ej257kg4le engine type.. I carnt see why there should be any difference..visually look the same unless the cats are more free flowing on mine the saloon over the hatch back.. only difference on the car is from cat back and body.yexhnically same car..

 

For a start a 2.5L Hatch is a GRF model (MY08-13)

If it's a GVF (sedan/saloon) then it's a MY11 - no saloons prior to MY11 - all you mentioned before was a 60 plate.

 

Stevie, you have PM.........

 

your right his isna gvf,just got to wait for the right one I have someone else That has one just holding out and Hugh below has one but changed his mind on selling so still looking.

 

im still holding out for this picture to see how long the centre had to be extended!!

 

id say 5 inchs

 

Did you ever find out if a hatch downpipe will fit a GVF saloon? Surely they are the same fitting?

 

I was told they were same length but don on here said they are different part numbers so I got one from a 2013 saloon to be safe.
