Original exhaust.
gus Wed 01 Jun 2011, 7:33 pm
Do you think its possible to cut down ,gut and repack the original exhaust .Lets face it they are STRONG , fit and useless in the cupboard.
They have spot welds on them but it looks possible to pull it apart .Its "inards " need to be thrown away to make it lighter and made shorter.
Possible???

Anything is possible with you Gus.
Aslong as you have someone that can weld the stainless back up for you

yes can be done - and with your ingenuity and determination I'm sure it will - I recon get a hot dog and make up some sort of pipework so that it all fits inside the outer shell and looks stock as a rock but sounds the biz.
hot dog costs about $50 I think if that, but if you nick one off the local Dato 120y I'm sure it'll work, bit of pipe work $10 - do it, you know you want to.

Just so you get an idea of the finished product Gus.
It really adds some colour.

When you pull up you'll have dogs pissing on your wheels - and licking your exhaust.
Good one Peter.
Being slightly more serious now. Instead of welding it back up you could pop rivet it with stainless rivets and a band.

Postage on one is going to be significantly more than $20... they are pretty bulky and heavy,

Just do it Gus. If you need an original later you'll get one easy enough.

I spent an hour removing the 6 button heads (spot welded ) on the end of the original exhaust .Three of them were dummies ( or should i say 4 ) 
Then it gets worse ,the internals are not "slide in ".
