    Default Where can I get a lukey exhaust

    Hi there I went through the sponsors lists but couldn't find anything.. I also went on their website with there distributors but the qoute I got from the guy was stupid.

    I'm after a lukey cat back system, wondering if anyone on here can supply me with one and if you could pm or write your qoute for me. (if you post plz inlcude the frieght to 3023)

    They where on a ebay, but just before I got back from overseas (yesterday), they stopped selling them. I'm looking to fit it myself, (I think it'll be rather easy)

    Also

    Question: With the installation of the tip, can the tip be welded on with the exhaust on the car, or do you need to take the exhaust component off to avoid damage to cars electrical components?

    Contact your local Carline. They are the main supplier for lukey.

    Use the store locator. Carline - Home

    yeh i got a quote of an exhaust shop in dandy area and another we use through work and they wouldn't quote me said there no good on a gen3, don't know why though, and something bout they don't make enough on them in profit so wont sell them or recomend them as much, but they sound awesome on cars, a few mates have had them on cars and they were nice notes,

    Hey guys, called up

    This was my qoute, the guy on the phone was really helpful

    He said, 320 for a lukey sports system supplied fitted.

    I can get it with the rear resonator (which is smaller than the redbacks which have a large resi, he said)

    Or for no extra cost, I can get a hotdog in there instead. giving it a more meaty sound.

    Is 320 fair go?
    (I'll end up buying a tip and just tell them to weld it on)

    What do you guys reckon?

    To hotdog or not to hotdog and is the qoute fair?

    Price sounds quite reasonable. I would recommend a hotdog because it just gives it a clearer note and reduces any drone.

    I scrapped the lukey idea, im getting a custom made exhaust for it, 450.
    guys like the mass factory produced ones are ****.. ill make it myself...
    i promised myself, i wouldnt cut corners with my vy and do everything properly. bcoz its the car im gonna keep for a fair while.

    thought extra 100ish would be worth something custom. he had a corvette in there aswell, Porsche and a nice vy ss. will let you guys know how she turns out. picking her up lunch time 2moro.
