BlownCorona Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 hello auckland people. i have recently movied to auckland with work, and the exhuast on the corona is very much worse for wear. plus its a mess of bits and peices of other exhuasts. so i would like to get it all new and tucked up as high as possible so i wont damage it as much. i would normaly do this myself, except i no longer have access to my welder and any of my tools, or an area to actually do the work. does anyone have any recomendations for decent shops that wont charge a fortune, or does anyone want to take on the job for me? im out west in whenuapai, so close to that for a shop would be nice, but i could bring it anywhere in auckland if someone wants to do it for me. cheers!

BlownCorona Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 okay cool. ill look into them aswell. side note. how long would is realistically take for a shop to build and install a basic exhuast (headers back)? i say this because idealy id wanna drive there in the morning and be back by 3pm ready to start night shift. but this may be unrealistic? ive not gone to a workshop to get work done in my life before..

spiderwebfx Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 My S12 took about five and a half hours. And that included modifying the headers slightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlownCorona Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 I just need a flange welded to the down pipe of the header, and that ran to the back of the car, probably one muffler after the diff, with a flange separating the middle and rear sections. I'll phone around tomorrow anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
