Only the standard V8s. XR8s have the cats welded to the factory headers.

Yes, I had this issue on my XLS Its like an pretty much an hour labour to get it rewelded, apparently there is a plate or something that is tack welded onfrom factory and eventually breaks, my ute did 140 thou kms and it failed at 141 ish thou kms, 99 bucks to repair it from a shop in dubbo.. ( i don't trust the exhuast shops in bathurst)
