ive had a look and the hangars are in good shape. just the piping is pretty low, not sure whether its because the pipe is wuite wide or not but yer.
Im trying to buy some stock springs and get them put in for now...
Does any one know how to install them? Ill pay cash :)

changing spring is a pain in the ass for just that plus changing them back you would be better going into a shop getting car on hoist and get them to look at exhuast.
im sure it can be taken up a bit.

indeed, cut then shut and the problem is solved, your just going to have to pay again to get your old springs reinstalled

[QUOTE=pommyjones;463701]im just trying to get it past the pits this week, otherwise i wont be able to get it done.
I wont be able to get time off work for a while so just wanna get it done as cheap and fast as possible.
Thinking maybe finding stock springs, getting them swapped over. but not sure how much people will charge to do it :S
Or maybe even borrowing a stock exhaust, whacking that on just for the pits.[/QUOTE]

listen to the advice given mate! no point swapping wheels or springs!

you said they said cars high enough.

swapping springs will be a pain in the ass.

get the low part modded, you may be surpised it wont cost much, or you could replace ur rubbers that hold it up the may be fooked...

Bigger rims should lift car more than stock rims anyway.

Changing spring I would be surprised if it’s any less than $200 each swap.

Probably find you can pay $100 at a shop to get Exhaust modified and you might only be there couple hours.

im pretty sure i read somewhere that the exhaust just has to be higher than the bottom of the wheel rim and its just the rest of the body that has to be 100mm.
i know my zorst (full 3") is pretty low and passed the pits ok.

Wrong, it is 100mm to the lowest part of the car.

You've asked for advice and multiple people have all given you the
same advice to get the piping fixed as its not a big or expensive job.

So if you do all the other things and not the piping as suggested and
you still don't pass the pits don't post up and have a cry about having
to go through it all over again, we've tried to help you.

Nah I reckon he should ask for advice then do what ever he feels like anyhow

Gods speed to you buddy!

pommyjones 22-06-2010 09:12 AM

JDM STYLE: Yes thanks for the advice. I found a friend who can help me with the springs, and while it is jacked up we are going to try pull up the exhaust system a little.
So its only cost me the price of the springs.

TEEJAT: Cheers buddy
