{"product_id":"rear-catalytic-converter","title":"Rear Catalytic Converter","description":"The Freedom Auto Parts catalytic converter is a direct replacement rear exhaust component engineered for 1998-2005 Lexus GS300 and 2001-2005 Lexus IS300 vehicles equipped with a 3.0L engine. As a crucial part of the exhaust system, it actively works to decrease harmful emissions by facilitating chemical reactions that transform pollutants such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides into safer substances. This process not only ensures compliance with environmental regulations but also contributes to improved air quality.\n\nThis catalytic converter is offered in two compliance options: EPA (Federal) and CARB (California Air Resources Board). The primary distinction lies in their regulatory reach and stringency, with CARB standards being more rigorous and specifically mandated for California. Several other states, including New York, Colorado, and Maine (for vehicles newer than 2001), have adopted CARB standards due to similar air quality concerns. All EPA or CARB compliant converters from Freedom Auto Parts come with a one-year warranty.\n\nFitment is specified for the LEXUS GS300 from 1998-2005 and the LEXUS IS300 from 2001-2005, both with the 3.0L 6-cylinder engine (2JZGE). The part is also known as a Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly or Front Pipe, with OE cross-reference numbers including 54666, 642223, 772366, and 1741046580. The Engine Family Numbers associated with this part include YTYXV03.0FFD, 1TYXV03.0FFE, 2TYXV03.0FFF, 3TYXV03.0FFF, 4TYXV03.0VMD, and 5TYXV03.0VMA, particularly relevant for CARB compliance.","brand":"Lexus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687913287992,"sku":"1741046580","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/664706245.jpg?v=1784887264","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/rear-catalytic-converter","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
