Default WTB - 93/94 GS Stock Catalytic Converter

I am talking about the first cat. converter, right out of the engine. Lexus calls it 'No. 2 Front Exhaust Pipe with TWC'. It's the one with two pipes leading into the converter. Mine finally rusted through and I cannot afford to pay $1200 to Lexus for the new one. Private party sale (perhaps from a wrecked car) preferred. Commercial sales are not opposed.

Please let me know. If you can point me in the right direction, I would also appreciate that.

Ed.

Try Steve? He could be somewhat cheaper than the prices you guys are getting.

How many miles does it have? What car is it off of? Will it be a direct fit for my 94' GS300? Why are you selling it? Can you please send me several pics of it? Any more details would be great! I am VERY interested.

You know mine doesnt have two pipes leading into the converter????????




Here I found this website that has rebuilt ones...


They say this is the front one, which I dont see on my car anywhere so I am confused...
http://www.kansascityconverters.com/...ms/bn799ab.htm

And this is the rear one which looks like mine, but now I need to measure it, ours doesnt have an oxygen sensor on it does it, i didnt see one???? Does anyone know the length off hand?
http://www.kansascityconverters.com/...tems/bn802.htm


So which is the front cat and where is the front one on our cars because at least on my car I only see what they call the rear one right after the exhaust manifold in the front of the car and not the front one they show????? Do I not have a front cat??? Does either have an O2 sensor???? I am so confused now, sorry I sound like a dumbass...
