Yaris 2003 t-sport cat/exhaust

Hi All 

Seem to be having problems locating a cat/exhaust for a 2003 Yaris T-sport - even specialist exhaust centres are having problems - they can only supply part of the exhaust and Toyota want £1200 for the cat alone!

 

I'll need to replace exhaust system too and would be great to buy everything from one source - can anyone recommend a few places that are not charging more than the car is worth?

 

Thanks in advance.

I had got a new mid section off eBay, was a brand new piece off kit manufactured by Klarius to oem spec, was under £100, I remember euro car parts doing them but at the time they were out of stock

Thanks type_r_baby!

Found out yesterday that Klarius sell these through Europarts - been trying to get through to them to confirm stock and price.

Have exhaust blowing and engine management light on - did you notice a difference in performance/economy after replacing?

Klarius are a good company - got a new downpipe for a 1997 1.8 MX5 and because it's a '97 (last year before Mk2 came out), it was the wrong size (different cats pre 1996) so they took my old one (as they hadn't known about this difference before and wanted to get one manufactured so they could sell downpipes for '96-'97 cars) and manufactured a brand new one for me. Also had a catback exhaust on the MX5 and it sounded better than the previous one (a little punchier, but still basically an OE part).

not really it was quieter as my oem system was blowing, I doubt you will notice any gains as it oem spec

Just an update in case anyone else has to go through this!

Europarts could not supply the CAT even though shown on their site - be prepared for a long wait on the phone - took 3 attempts.

In the end had a custom exhaust/CAT  fitted by Pipecraft in Basildon who were excellent - cleared all the issues.

Fuel economy on its first run has jumped from 33 average to 40 mpg with some slow traffic in London. It could also be that the exhaust is somewhat (read very) much louder than stock and haven't used the gas pedal so much! 

Cheers guys.

Out of curiosity, what did the new custom exhaust & cat cost? Mine is still on it's original and it's only a matter of time before it will need replacing.

It was £480 fitted.

A garage that I work for said Pipecraft do really do an excellent job and inclined to agree.

Hopefully will increase the value of the car as I'm going to be selling it late next year for something bigger.

 

Good luck!
