Hi,

My HKS Super Dragger Exhaust has a hole in it at the last bend at the end of the exhaust. It is about 10mm dia. Can anyone give me advice on what I should do. Should i repare it, I think it is rusted, or should I get a new exhaust???

Thanks

Juan

Funny that...I had the same problem with my Super Drager on my S13 a while back...the hole was small enough to seal with tht metal sealant stuff...its like play dough, you mix it up and just stick it on like putty...worked fine for a couple of months..then I just got the part of the piping replaced in the end.

What is the material? You should be able to get someone to weld it shut. Worst case weld a bung into it or a small plate over the top - should be a fairly cheap fix - not worth the cost of a new exhaust.

At a guess an exhaust shop and < $100 should easily cover it -- especially if you take the exhaust off and into the shop yourself you will save some cash - easier and quicker to weld on a bench.

    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
