I was looking at the info on that and it says not for California models. I saw a bunch like that as well. I dont understand why it wouldnt be for a CA car when it has provisions for 2 O2's just like mine....Does that type of CAT not clean as well or somthing ?? Thank you by the way....

Hey 94civic, so the part you showed me will fit and work properly and run just fine as far as the cat doing its job, it just wont be technically leg@l right ?

You think someone will buy it with the maniflod cracked like that ? In your opinion what would be a good price to ask for it in order for a quick sale ???

It doesn't matter that it's cracked. You sell it just for the precious metal (platinum and/or palladium) in the catalyst part. The price of scrap metal has varied a lot lately though.
