As long as it's JDM decat and JDM mid section should be fine man. It's combining JDM/UKDM cat/midsection that causes issues.

the stud pattern from decat to downpipe will be different but you can use some skinny,longer bolts to get around the problem

I think I just used a grinding bit on a drill and widened the holes on the downpipe flange slightly, but thinner bolts will do it to :)
