Default Classic exhaust on Newage help

The exhaust backbox & midsection of a Classic is the same length as the Newage IIRC & its only the downpipe that is shorter on the Classic. If I wanted to fit a classic backbox and centre section, its only one bracket/hook on the centre section that is on the wrong side. And if so, I read somewhere that TSL or somebody did a adaptor bracket to get around this??? Or anyone got any ideas how to utlilise the exisiting centre section bracket which is on the wrong side to make it fit a newage. I was thinking some kind of clamp to go around the midsection? Ideally I need someone to weld on a new bracket in the correct place on the centre section but I'd rather solve it myself somehow.

Any ideas appreciated.

HI,

the centre sections are different lengths on classic to newage(classic is longer).

Iv got a one piece backbox & midsection Fujitsubo Titanium exhaust for a classic which Im considering fitting to a newage. As its one piece the overall length may be the same as newage exhaust? I think the only way to findout will be to offer it up & see.

Nah,sell it to me so i can get rid of my Blitz off the classic i have :-)

As said, the classic system is longer,so if you do get around the mid section mounting issue, it will just stick out past the bumper that bit more, few inches etc, ooeerr !

If it doesn't fit I will put it up for sale

But the overall length of mid section & backbox may be the same of classic & newage (downpipe is shorter on classic). So should'nt stick out unless I was using classic mid section & newage backbox. We'l have to wait & see, but will try & make the blemin thing fit! Its a Fujitsubo Giken (Half titanium), the best exhaust Iv had after using: Standad Sti; Miltek; Hayward & Scott & Blitz Nur Spec on the Scooby.

you may need to add a small spacer, a flange for a exhaust with a gasket either side will sort it on the joint where DP meets your centre section,
if you dont your back box may foul the rear ARB( Scoobyworld sell them for a newage but dont bother warning you that they foul)
