Forrest Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 A real basic question for you here people, so hopefully someone can help! 350z - I'm trying to repair my OEM exhaust system, but am struggling to cut the blasted thing from underneath. What is the OEM exhaust made from? I cannot seem to cut it with a hand saw or reciprocating saw? Is an Angle grinder and a diamond disk the way forward? I am completely new to metalwork, so apologies in advance for being a noob. 😇 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack94 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) How about a proper pipe cutter? That's what I used when I had to repair my oem system and it was dead easy. They're a great tool, not expensive and leave a really nice clean/straight cut. Edited April 7, 2022 by Jack94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintopete58 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Well I would use a angle grinder battery if possible with a 1mm cutting disc cuts like butter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forrest Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 Thanks gents 🙂 I have neither tool so will buy the angle grinder on this occasion as it will have more uses after I’ve done the job. Any other tips seeing as I’m a first timer? Cutting oil? Be careful?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintopete58 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Good choice multi usage have a look on ebay for the 1mm discs could get a good deal and good luck stick some pictures up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
