Default Why is a DECENT 2nd Hand exhaust so hard to find !!

All i want is a decent jap style cat back system,Not much to ask is it ?

WRONG

so far, i have seen 5 systems that are clearly advertised wrong and if i didnt know what to look for,well,could of easily bought naff systems

1 HKS system, why is it HKS,because the garage that sold it him says so on his receipt,are there any HKS markings on it ? NO

1 HKS system had the flange removed so it was a slipjoint system,was this mentioned,NO

1 System was HKS and for a subaru all the way thru the ad,until the last line read,Was adapted to fit a corsa WTF !

And if there is a decent 2nd hand system,they want the same money as a new one would cost

rant over

Looks like me and my Blitz will be friends a while longer LOL

I dont know where your looking mate,as i watched a guy pick up a brand spanking new ninja 2 backbox for £100 yesterday afternoon, and he is going to pick up the h&s middle section tomorrow morning for £50.00 . some bargains out there just knowing where to look. The same guy(woody) also brought a td05 for £95.00 .

or the other ones to watch out for the ones advertised as "full 3inch" systems (new and used) and when you look at the picture you can clearly see either a 2.5inch flange at the downpipe or at rear of the centre section!!! or even beter when i asked one seller on ebay the "internal" diameter he can back at 3.5inch, and it clearly wsasnt!
