Title: Exhaust Question
Post by: gavin.starr on November 21, 2010, 02:43:20 PM
Just a quicky really, will the G40 exhaust be a direct replacement for my 1.3 bready (L Reg), the flexi pipe has just decided to pack in on me today.

Seeing as i will be putting a G40 engine in soon, i would probs have to replace my exhaust anyway so i might as well do it now seeing as my old one has just broken.

Any help would be great.

Might be 3" longer, or shorter - I forget which.  Just make sure it aligns right over the rear axle.

If i get it to allign right under the axle wont it be either too long or too short for fitment on the manifold?

Shorter I think, i remember fitting a G40 exhaust to my old CL/GT because i couldn't be arsed to buy another standard exhaust when I had the G one lying around.  Had to get a step up piece from an exhaust place to slot in onto the downpipe.  Best way is to try it and see what you need.
