I can see why you are not happy with the custom work, you must have forget to tell them to use rivets

















sorry, someone had to say it



does the rear exit soot up the towbar and rear bumper? looks like it is above it?

Certainly better fit second time round. The system they did for my 4.8 Patrol was a bit like that but but didn't cause any real issues as it wasn;t as bad. They put the cat section of pipe lower than necessary and it could have been higher seeign as it was in same position and original cat. Alos clearance to auto transmission cooling lines by secondary extractor pipes was a bit close but I suspect the system was jigged up on a manual. Not much room but a slight twist in orientation could have given a bit more clearance, never caused an issue though. However the fit and finish and overall design of extractors and the rest of the system was brilliant and as good as any I've ever had done before.

Mate has a similar exit to that one and if anything it could be a bit higher, soots up the towabar but doesn't seem to mark the bumper so doesn't seem to be an issue. Does the forward edge of the pipe still stick down a bit when climbing short obstacles, I would have thought it would be cut on a mitre to have it a bit more parallel to the ground. Or is there no chance of it hitting, the pcitre angle doesn't clarify very well.

By the way what does the Volkswagen wheel in the background belong to.

pretty expensive? a local no name exhaust shop near ke would do the same exhaust for comfortably under 800 and high quality. sure there are some dodgy no name exhausts joints out there aswell but just gotta find the right guy

Yeh theres some real morons out there working in exhaust shops. Wont go into what abortion of a job a certain joint on Blackburn Rd did to my exhaust.

No sooting, outlet seems to work well.

To hit it I would have to be bashing the rear bumper and towbar pretty badly. Possible, but not commonly what I do.

Local shops where similar price. Scotts Rods is near me and sells on eBay. They get good reviews (I found later) and does custom for a couplt of hundred less :(

Wheel in background is the missus' Diesel Golf. I get it free by not paying for fuel / tyres / wear on the Cruiser
(yep - all costs included, it still pays for itself - 5l/100 does that)

Windsor Exhaust did a great job on my 80, 3" mandrel inc. 3" dump pipe for $800. Great work, no hassles. Thoroughly recommended if they're handy to you.

Yeah, mates cruiser and my Patrol both had scuff marks on the plastic bumper at the back where the bottom edge rolls up to be almost flat eg couple of inches up around the curved bottom edge which is why I aksed.

I say bastard!! wife's dream car (not the diesel) of the models/brands I would allow her to pick form if we had the income again. Gotta love that their "R" spec Golf 2.0 l turbo puts out 198kw through AWD and still returns claimed economy of 7l/100k's. Can't remember claimed for the wifes piss weak Echo but it wouldn't be much better and would be lucky to develop half that
