maxi-glasgow Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Last night when leaving work I noticed my exhaust was blowing louder than usual. Went to mates garage this morning and it's splitting right after the joint of the back box, by that I mean on the pipe which is connected to the back box. So I either need to get a new back box or get the split mig welded, I am tending to think it's better just getting the new box. Mines is the standard exhaust so the question I have is--- Is it cheaper to buy a different exhaust ie Scorpion etc than getting another standard box from Nissan. Anyone any ideas about price. I see a Scorpion exhaust on Cougars site for £360, but this looks like the full exhaust system or is it just the back box? Also I want to get this sorted asap as that extra noise is spoiling the usual growl I'm used to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 From memory, the Nissan exhaust is about £510.00... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomer816 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Hey mate, i had the same thing a few months back. In the end i managed to get it repaired, they cut a piece out then clamped a piece back in its place. Works fine, I do want a new exhaust but this does the job till i decide which to get.

xStric9x Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 If only this happened whilst the car was still in warranty as this is becoming a regular occurance, and i'm pretty certain this would have been a recall. Mine went in exactly the same place on the hoon last year bud. I would recommend you bin it and buy a stainless one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxi-glasgow Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 Many thanks to John (JT1703) who has offered my his old back box since he had a different exhaust system fitted. I assume the back box didn't change from a 54 plate to an 05 plate?? That WOULD be just my luck Any, thanks a million John. Life saver. Going to meet up to collect it off him on his way to the Glasgow meet next Sunday. Still gutted at missing that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
