Don't know really? Don't know how much these sort of things go for?

I've found some exhausts on e-bay,they say with or without baffles. Which would b better to get a nice sound out of it??

[stamford]

Without will be very noisy, but a better gas flow.

[afcbadam]

are they universal types, that would need brackets and pipe connecter to fit it, or purpose built to fit the zs??

Purpose built.

I was thinking something like this, item number:- 270406760866 or 270406416009

look good to me

Note that these have to be welded to your existing system, or use their braided connector.

I've got a Sportex rear box in stainless for sale. It's for a 120 saloon and in mint condition. £70 quidish +delivery

[RalphG]

What diameter pipe does it have going into the box and what style/size tail pipe does it have? I might be interested in it for my 420. ;)

Thanks for pointing this out! Hadn't looked at it properly!!
Just looking at the mo anyway!!

It's 3" round exit and fits the OE centre pipe, so I guess about 2 1/4" into the box, link here for you;

Purpose built.

they are not what i would call purpose built, they are the ones that would need a pipe attaching and brackets making up to hang it on the car.

Like I said it was a guess :) What's a quarter of an inch between friends?!

Not sure if this fits both the Mk1 and Mk2 but are worth a call I guess. This is only for the four door though.

However just seen they do the five door too.

Try ordering one of these! They are all on back order, and have been for over 6 months. If they were available I would have one on my R400 turbo.

[RalphG]

BTW Premier have sold all the ones that they have listed on thepart.com.

[will-w]

I believe George (RSM) said something about being able to get them, as Xpart have sold the rights to make them to another company?

I may be wrong though, as there were a load of ex-F1 cars bombing around Brands while he was telling me! :wacko:

Only just got my hearing back!!
