Default busted exhaust = damnit.

Alright, well basically, i bought this car from this girl i went to highschool with like 3 months ago, and i kinda got the feeling that recently, she has only been dealing with this car just enough to get her by until she could buy her maxima.

So, the exhaust is some major ghetto rigging, like 3 clamps on it, cheap *** muffler shop looking **** on there.

the ******* weld broke on the muffler and it destroyed my rear bumper.

I'm so pissed.

Moral of the story.

Don't put cheap **** on your car, pay to have it done right. Nothing replaces welds.

Also, while was i was trying to remove the 12 year old exhaust bolts, (the ones that won't come loose.) i bent the b-pipe so bad it split, ugh, i'm so pissed.









oh, and the shady-motor wanted to say hey,.

Sucks about the bumper cover, but atleast you got an excuse to upgrade the exhaust now...

I have a 5zigen axleback in my closet, but it won't fit properly on this anyway.

I really just want to find a 92-95 si exhaust, becuase i'm going to be running a y8 swap shortly anyway.

This car is just my daily driver, in the future it will be my beast, but not yet.
