New Exhaust - Mid Section To Short!

[todd69]

Just bought a new exhaust (cat back cobra sport) for my Altezza RS200 and went to fit it today, the first issue was that the mid pipe is to small, if you look at the photos you will see the difference in length.

I decided to just go ahead and fit the back box but because the OEM flange is bevelled on the car and the flange is flat on the exhaust supplied, well it wouldn't fit without cutting the flange off and fitting a new one, obviously this is not a route I want to go down.

I've contacted the seller but just thought I would check here if anyone can see from the photos what's amiss as I was always under the impression the import was the same from the cat back.

Cheers

the is200 and altezza exhausts are different

id also imagine that the supplied piece is normally used in conjunction with other parts

for example the Japspeed systems work as a full system

Cat back?

Strange as I've read on here and other forums that car back they are the same.

you can see that your exhaust is different, you have 2 middle boxes the is200 has a single centre box

the cat pipe comes back further on the is200 aswell

even the back boxes are different, the altezza has a varible tract valve within the backbox, the is200 doesnt

Thanks for the advice and info :)

Managed to send the exhaust back and get a full refund as the advert actually stated that it fitted imports as well.

10/10 for exhausts uk ltd, were a pleasure to deal with even though I don't have a bling exhaust on my car :(
