    Just had my Catalytic Converter Stolen outta my tacoma today while i was at work. Anyone have any pics of a 98 3.4 of theirs? Ordered a replacement but i wanna see how it goes before hand. Pipe lookes to be cut on mine. Had to limp her home on the access road today. Work at the Target at the rim and talked to a SAPd officer and a Rim mall cop. Been happening alot apparently. The tape showed a male and female in a dark blue sedan so keep an eye out. Little did they know my truck rolled over to 260,000 yesterday and its a stock converter... apparently someone didnt wanna pay 200 for a new one... Part arives at my nappa on friday.

    just thinkin bout that actually, can fab some outta 1/8th diamond plate left from the bumper. with maybe a guy shootin the finger? haha jk but ya im planning that after i get my parts. Just annoying to get in and start and know shit aint right... little bit of a sound difference with the 3.4l with and without the converter. Apparently these assholes didnt see my RED JACKET FIREARMS sticker on the windshield..... no body likes a angry country guy lol

    stock, 265/65/17. I could not grab traction at all. Times were the same (14.3-14.5) but my trapping speed was in the 97-98 mph range instead of 95. If I could grab traction I might be touching 13's. maybe.

    To pass inspection they just "look" for the cat unless you inspect it where they actually smog test it. They do selll cats by themselves then you could just have it welded in.
