Just bought a new one, and it should be here next week...so up for sale is my 3" mild steel cat back.

Brand is tanabe, JASMA on the muffler....

Muffler is an oval style muffer, and sits straight (not angled) etc...

had a small crack in the back of the muffler when i bought it, (small meaning hairline) but I had that welded up by a pro fabricator (Coupe-This :P) so its all sealed now, no holes or leaks. resonator has a bit of a dent in it, normal surface rust in parts, but the pipe work itself is barely rusted, and no holes.

The exhaust is still on the car atm, but I hope to have it swapped over next week sometime.

Pics will be up when i have the car back.

Price is $300ono.

How loud Mike? The exhaust on my auto 33 is a bit loud for me so I want to change.

Due to the recent surgery I'd appreciate delivery in exchange for coffee and my outstanding company. I can't drive for 3 weeks.

I'll take the indicator stalk as well.

Hey Geoff

I actually replaced it because it wasn't loud enough for me :angry:

Some might call it stupid, but i wanted my car to at least have some bark to it!

This thing sounded almost stock, but opens up a bit at higher revs....didnt feel restrictive at all either.

Delivery could be organised, what area are you from?

Mike I'm up northside near Epping, at South Morang. No hurry (since I can't fit it yet) but don't want to miss out. Happy to pre-pay via direct bank deposit but I'm sure you'd rather not have it under foot in the garage.

The auto is better quiet rather than loud and droning. Of course getting loud when you nail it is fine. I'm sure the exhaust it has would be great on a manual but on the auto which is always flaring revs it just doesn't sound right.

Cheers mate.

Epping ay...not exactly around my area. I do work in broadmeadows, so i'm sure something could be arranged quite easily, especially when you want the stalk as well :starwars:

I would love to get it out of the garage...so whenever you're ready we can sort it out.

Only 15 min drive away. Maybe the wife will take me over to where you work to pickup. Otherwise I'll be here pretty much everyday until released from post surgery prison.

lol sounds like fun

I can probably bring it round to you after work 1 day this week probably....once i find out when i'm working, i'll let you know.

Have added you to MSN as well, so if you're on that, it'll just make it easier to sort out :wave:

Did you want photos of it before you commit to buying?

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
