AUTOSAVER88Catalytic Converter Compatible with Camry 2.2L 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001, Solara 2.2L 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 Direct-Fit (EPA Compliant)

This catalytic converter + exhaust pipe was hundreds of dollars cheaper than alternatives, and it has a quality build. Installed on a Toyota Camry CE 1999 (4 cylinder). You can install this yourself with the correct tools (14 mm deep socket, 12 mm socket, angle grinder for those rusty nuts/bolts, jack stands. There were nuts/bolts provided for one end, but not the other but I replaced them as needed. There are videos on youtube that show how to install, but I started aligning the front end (manifold) connection and attached it loosely, then the middle bracket loosely, then the rear connection loosely - then tightened each section up gradually and it fit fine. I had to cut the bolts off of the rear end connection because they were rusted completely, and replaced them with the bolts provided (the hole needed to be cleaned out to the bolts would fit.)

The catalytic converter and flex pipe assembly fit perfect for my 98 2.2 liter camry. However the bolts and gaskets it came with are generic and should basically be thrown out. I have also found it next to impossible to get in contact with the seller about any questions/concerns

So this pipe replaced my 3 years old Walker CAT/Flex pipe. This one is supposed to be a Stainless Steel so it should lest me much longer than the 3 years aI got from Walker. Overall easy install with notes for others:1. The new pipes diameter is smaller than my old Walker so the standard round gasket has a little play and it doesn't stay in the middle of the pipe. During tightening of the 3 manifold pipe bolts I was little worry if its going to seal properly especially that you have to finish everything to test it. In the end things worked out without any leaks.2. Connecting the pipe to the front manifold pipe was little tricky while doing this by myself. I didn't wanna take out the hanger bracket due to a rust and a danger of breaking the bolts off so I had the CAT on the hanger trying to align it with the front pipe while laying on my back under the car. This was almost impossible to do by myself. The trick was , to do it from the top, from the engine bay. From there, it was much easier to align the holes of the both pipes, keeping the gasket as much in the center of both pipes as possible. Also, you'll have to raise the back part of the flex pipe to easier be able to align the front part with the manifold pipe. I used a small floor jack to do this.3. The bolt holes on my resonator pipe the side that connects to the flex pipe are smaller than the holes on this CAT pipe so the bolts that came with this system would not fit my resonator pipe. I could drill them out to a bigger size but instead, I went and bought couple of stainless steel bolts and nuts that would fit in both holes. The bolts that came with the resonator pipe came without washers.In the end it took me 3-4 hours to change the complete exhaust system and another 2 hours dealing with broken bolts that broke off during taking the steel plate cover that protects the things under the engine. Next time I wouldn't even have to do this as the approach from the top is much easier anyway. Live and learn, lol

En buenas condiciones y llega rápido

Exact fit. Both gaskets included. Rear bolts included. It had other bolts but they were different from my front bolts so I reused mine. I don't think any of these aftermarket pipes last long. The flex pipe breaks. We will see on the longevity in time. So far, highly recommend.

OE part is $600+, so this is an excellent price. The bad news is that the flex will come apart within a couple years, which you can cut out and replace if you wish. The converter and pipe should last a long time, as it heats hot enough to prevent moisture from rotting it out quickly.

This unit is built well but should include simple instructions or drawing.

The bolts were way too big to fit my car manifold had to buy some

Fits good. But needs better gasket.For a 22 year old car this will do. Unless you want to buy a expensive one and pimp out your ride but I don't think your not being your camry to a car show lol
