low exhaust problem

[A'PEXi]

i recon you should sell it off, get a new one or use the stock one :P.... your always going to have problems driving a defectable car.... not enjoyable

[soul4real]

But I just bought it like less than a month ago.
It's scratched slightly as well so I reckon I would lose a couple hundred already just for that.

[totti]

just fit some stock springs on, then swap them back when your done!

[soul4real]

Well the guy at the the suspension place reckons that putting it back to stock height won't be enough, that's why i'm trying to think of other ways of doing it.

damn...i know how u feel mang, all i can say do wat d defect notice says coz they wont clear it unless u did wat it said there.

goodluck bro

I went to see evo r and had a chat with them and they agreed that the cheapest way would be to put the stock exhaust on, get the defect cleared, then put my HKS back on. I thought evo r might still have my old exhaust because I just got it done not long before the holidays but apparently it is gone, so I started calling up a few wreckers. I got quoted 99 for the middle section and 99 for the muffler, I think the guy was pulling numbers out of his ass, what do you guys reckon ? Or is that a good price ? I honestly wasn't looking to spend more than $100 because it's not use to me afterwards.

Here is my under axle setup on my old EG hatch - as u can see - it was about 50mm MAX from the ground Funky and fast - but not too good across ANY bump :P

BTW dood - HOW LOW is your car for the overaxle piping to be 40mm from the ground ??? Jeebus ! Show us a pic !

[soul4real]

So you can see from the pic that it's just under 50mm off the ground.

How low was your exhaust from the ground ? It looks pretty low as well.

You have to go over the axle. I got a custom 3" on my V-tir and trust me there is room. You might want to make the exhaust sit normal rather than the ricey look.

I can see that your car wasnt lowered too much at all - BUT that is a HUGE ass muffler lol - is it a HKS Super dragger ? As u can see by my pic - mine is a Apexi n1 , with actual under axle piping, which was about 50mm from the ground Top power...but entirely not worth it

Just go hi-flow madrel bent over axle

[soul4real]

The axle is not much higher than the tip either.
It's a HKS Hiper.

[soul4real]

How much do you think it's been lowered by?

I originally thought they had eibach sportsline springs because my shocks are bilsteins but apparently they don't make those springs for my car and the guy reckons they are pedders because they're red in color.
