Does this two have the same bolt patter? Can you bolt the catalytic in place of the resonator? Thanks.

I believe the cat is bolted in and the resonator which is further downstream is welded on my friend.

Sorry but my S14 resonator (aka dummy cat) is bolted.

Yes you can put a downstream cat in place of a dummy cat, i did it.

Was it a direct bolt on?

Yup, i took out my cat and put in a test pipe, and my friend took the cat and put it in place of his dummy cat.

you might need new hardware but I can't be sure because mine was too rusted to reuse.

I'd recommend new stainless hardware and some anti-seize lube.

It is indeed a direct replacement, any 89-98 piece will fit in any exhaust, whether it's a real converter or not.
