    just getting a lukey catback exhaust, it has the centre muffler and a hotdog in it... $250 from supercheap...and then just getting the twin dumpies out the back id say they are 2" as well. I got quoted about $400 from an exhaust shop too, but maybe u should try the way im going and save yourself about $100 and get the exhaust and tip from super cheap, as its pretty easy and quick to change just the catback ...but then if u want the tip you'll have to weld it on...

    welding wouldnt be a problem, uncle is a welder about 5mins from my work, nor would bolting the exhaust up, i have a 2.5" catback now which i put on, but the flange on the exhaust was sitting a touch lower.. or more likely, it ended up that way, when i rolled over a small concrete tile.. bent it about 4-5mm from the cat, sounds like a fart I have heard a lot of store bought exhausts, they sound like my current one, a bit droney and have that ricer sort of sound, an exhaust place my mate knew the owner of got his for $300 inc twin dump tips, sounds real deep and rough.. I love it, might have to take it there and get a replica, its about a 90km drive there though haha, I have heard good things about the exhaust joint im going to though..

    oh ok lol well i guess if u know what your buying sounds like then i would go for it 2.
    i have heard a lukey exhaust before though with my mates vs that also has extractors and its still the best v6 sound i have heard to date...so im going that way with the exhaust, and lukeys a good brand as well so hopefully wont be "ricey" as u have heard before with other store exhausts lol.
    and as for that 90km trip...think of the better sounding drive home lol

    Just a few pics of my cars new stance, lowered it yesterday, I love it, will throw up more when the rear springs have settled..

    Parts Used:

    Front: Shortened shocks on GM struts and superlow kings
    Rear: Pedders Sports Ryder shortened shocks, Noltec adj. panhard and ultra low kings (VN sedan, i think, as these are the lowest available)






    and one at my mates work on the hoist for a wheel alignment.
