finished the exhaust today. pretty proud of my first attempt. do harder things at work errday but rarely make time for my own shit.

super gay as I forgot to buy any steel bends so did the whole thing by notching and kinking the tube ( lobster back pipe work was once all the rage wasn't it?)

also added a pod filter, dooort.

certainly sounds great! these are good sounding engines. pics soon even tho nobody cares lol

plus there are tons of blasters doing cars everywhere. find one with good customer feedback doing similar work and roll with it. just state you don't want the apprentice learning on it.

thanks for that- will check. it's a fuggin great daily that I can still fiddle with so I'm happy! just at bunnings buying welding supplies, l love this place

so, I flogged a rig welder from work and stopped in at coby on the way home. they sold me some exhaust tube, bends, flanges, gaskets, a muffler and a mandrel bent pre formed section which goes over the diff and turns to avoid the gas tank. coby has a full bolt in system for 820$.... iv spent 370 on the bits and end up with the same thing at the end, woo.

the coby guy confirmed that my headers are made by pacesetter and that I will gain approx 15kw from the upgrade! not bad at all.

for the record- coby has folders full of before and after dyno runs for their exhausts- pretty interesting!

thanks guys!

lol I don't know if that's a joke or not about the lady making brown paint lol

anyone know if they are compatible at all?

live in hams, sucks.

lol cool, hook me up then!!

chuuuur for the advice. may buy new then. dual props pulling a skateboard could be fun/ a good waste of time

would be great if that's the case! it's the difference between a few hours work and one huge cunt of an ordeal.

That camera man

sorry, i clicked post a little prematurely

fuckit.. no choice is there. damn.

cheers all. side pipe it is then

so, bought this on tm for cheap. its a 1993 eb2 falcon. was gonna sell but it's just too nice. parts are cheap and its the cheapest/ most comfortable daily iv ever had.

underline cheap. I bought the mrs an 01 Stagea which we use for going places together so this can be as shit as I want.

I fitted a sweet radio because it had none. no sound came out so checked and double checked wiring. found a shorted speaker in the back... cut wires to it and whalla! sweet tunes.

I found some extractors for $130 wrapped in glass. fitted those and was disappointed during low speed rest drive. plugged in the 02 sensor and have taken it to work a few times- there is deff more power up top but I need to do zorst to get the most from it obviously.

just bought lowering springs, a diff and a tq converter from the same wrecker as the manufold. the diff is 3.23 ratio to replace my 3.08. I want to get it off the line a bit faster.

plan asside from that is cheap exhaust and then a cam grunt from Franklin- they will do me a road race grind for $170. win.

basically go nuts when I have nothing to play with when home so am making my daily a project untill I get something more fun

Sorry.. had to post prematurely. fixed now

so if it's exit is behind the rear doors and the sound is ok... does it have to exit out the side or rear of the vehicle or is it ok for it to expel its fumes under the car?

basically CBf doing the ____/\__ over my diff so wanna end it short

or more if u need more encouraging lol just when ur there next

if ur over that way il pay u $25 ea for two good identical ones that go. i wanna make a twin prop something

holy crap that's cheap

do ya have two good running ones you'd sell?

how's this going?

and any misalignment at all would mean breakages. could run a rubber coupler to help I guess.

yeah that's them. I know they have every profile of door/ boot seal imaginable and I'm pretty sure iv seen a catalogue there full of trim clips

pretty sure HCD has catalogues full of clips- could be worth a phone call.
