I got all of my exhaust stuff from summit (minus the mandrel bends which I sourced on eBay) I built this on jackstands with the mig welder on the other side of building.
Here's the downpipe
2.5" --- 3" adapter (bought the 2.5" downpipe and didn't feel like building a new one at the time)
Used lots of sharpie marks, tacked with the mig, test fit, tacked some more.
I used a flex pipe (you NEED one of these) and a glass pack from summit
Here it is, all tacked with the Summit Turbo Muffler at the rear.
Test fitting
Painted
Here's one of the hangars I made. It worked, but not too well. I will be doing it differently next time around
Don't forget about the bung for the wideband!!
All done, minus the tips. You can kind of see how low the 3" exhaust will be.
Here are some sound clips. Forget the exhaust leak in the first video.... :(
Here's another in car...I did not get on it at all, it was one of the first test drives!
here's a few pics of the exhaust mounted up. The back isnt hanging correctly in relation to the rear valance. I still have to finish up mounting the valance, then i will change the hangers and what not. Anyways, i think it is tucked up there pretty nice, and for my first welding job i think it came out halfway decent Sorry for the large and sideways pics. Photobucket is being lame for some reason
no sounds clip yet, sorry. I dont have a nice enough camera to record one.
Haven't done any work for any m42 cars yet. Hit me up in a few months, hopefully when I can take new orders but for now, advice is about all I can give.
down pipe was made by me and i used a buddy club exhaust off of a s14 240sx and just modified it to fit the e30 and added a flex pipe. exhaust is 3" with a 4" blast pipe
