    cool... I reckon my first port of call will be CES in meadowbrook though, which is just down the road from me and I will have to drive down with just extractors... don't like my chances of getting to Capalaba like this lol.....

    Well I went and saw ol' mate at CES the other day for some discussing and a quote...

    Props to him, very helpful and understanding of what I want/require....

    but, the price, holy shit I was not expecting such a shock...!

    Basically what I want is 2 1/4" mild steel pipe, mandrel bent from the extractors back, 1 resonator under the car, system under diff with a stainless rear muffler.... (the muffler is going to be custom sized to my measurements $300 for that... )

    Im cool with that,
    the rest of the system takes the total to $919 wtf... for mild steel pipe and a resonator, there is minimal bends also...

    Don't get me wrong they seem like the right guys to do the job, but that is redonkulously priced in my eyes...

    yep that is it... seriously they seem really good to deal with and were happy to do what I had in mind but so much $$$ for such a simple system... the last mandrel bent system I got was basically the same, just had a straight through muffler under the car instead of a stainless one out the back and it only cost $450 (Carline mufflers in Sydney)

    You could get a sweet Stainless Steel JDM System from HKS or the like for around $1K.

    My latest exhaust was 3 Inch mandrel bent mild steel, dump back with a supplied CAT welded in the middle and a 3 Inch Semi-Straight through muffler and SS Tip. Whole lot came to $480 I think. Done by Cleveland Exhaust & Towbar.

    Have heard many good things about Men @ Work, the system on mates RX7 is very nicely done. I would have used them but again not easy to get it there.

    Hmm that's quite true also.... I really don't even want to spend more than $5-600 though, will defiantly have to get some more quotes....

    men @ work might be worth checking out.

    Lee's Exhaust is no more. My housemate used to work there.

    On that topic, My housemate welds up exhausts (being a Exhaust fitter for Lee's) from home. He will listen to what you want and also give recommendation's.

    What exactly are you after? He can give you as pretty good price, I assure you.

    If you want, add me on MSN -
