MY99 OEM STi Exhaust Backbox
 
Guys,

Looking for the standard single pipe exhaust backbox from a 99 / 00 STi.. the one with the STi logo.... ideally located around Glasgow for easy pick up!

Surely someone has this cluttering their garage??

There might be a few about...... but to be honest they only look better than the standard twin pea shooter,i did this and there was hardly any noise difference so soon moved it on..... just a back box change there are lots better

Hi Rigga..

I've got a V5 STi... its got a full decat with a 3" tailpipe... all in its pretty loud and i'm looking for something quieter

got a miltek rear box sitting about the garage,changed it to a 4 inch jap inovations silencer..... might be a bit louder than a sti box im not sure though.... the jap inovations one is well louder though thats for deffinate.

Gonna hold out for a standard for a little while longer, cheers anyway,

Got a std STi backbox from an 05 needing a new home. I'm pretty sure it will fit a classic if you cut off one of the hangers. Not looking for much money - make me an offer of a few beer tokens ;) It has a small dent on the underside of the tail pipe, by the way, but you can't see it when its fitted.

Nowhere near Glasgow though, so if anyone knows how much they weigh (being lazy here!) I can work out a shipping cost for you.

Sounds like a better bet, being closer etc, but if this doesn't work out let me know.

I can use the courier we use at the office - they charge about £10 for up to 10kg, and above this there's a charge of around 75p per kilo.

I can't see the exhaust costing much more than £15 to ship - if you want to call it £30 delivered it's yours, and I will even cut off the hanger that isn't quite right - and not really necessary as I understand it - for you if you want!

chris_c201 13 June 2007 09:22 AM

Anyone know the weight? Also, does the newage defo fit when you remove one of the hangers?

Brian, seen the one scoobynutz has but he is looking for pick up....

chris_c201 13 June 2007 09:56 AM

Tim.. if this defo fits £30 sounds good to me!!

TimH 13 June 2007 10:03 AM

OK, great :) If you search here you will find quite a few threads on newage/classic backbox swaps and everyone seems to say that it is possible.

Also, for what its worth, the 2.75" Milltek backbox (also for sale, by the way!) I had removed recently when I upgraded to a full 3" decat system has had its "extra" support arm removed - which suggests to me it was a classic backbox fitted to a newage. Confusing, or what!

Bottom line - I would be foolish to guarantee that it will fit, so you must satisfy yourself that it will be OK.

chris_c201 13 June 2007 11:20 AM

I've read it myself so i'm fairly confident, plus, i'm not saying i have loads of spare cash to throw about but for £30 its hardly the end of the world if it doesn't!

Can you PM me your details for payment....
Cheers
Chris
