Looks good Graeme,

Did you just loose the rear section and connect with the piece of flexy pipe?

gtomo2 · « **Reply #2 on:** July 08, 2007, 16:15:24 »

Yea just cut it off after the axle bend found the flexi pipe works better for routing it around then a bit of stainless steel pipe at the end so it looks nice

Hmmm,

I've been thinking about doing something like that for a while myself.

Does it sound any different?

gtomo2 · « **Reply #4 on:** July 08, 2007, 16:54:34 »

Yea but mine is a v8 so it now has a nice low rumble :(shades):

Nice job.
Funny i was looking at mine yesterday, wondering how to bend a piece of pipe and fit it through the side panel.

Regards
wizard :twisted:

Just get some stright through yank side pipes like on the corbras. Then give it a gently rev next to a chav in his 1.1 nover and watch his car fall to pieces :lol: 8)
Or have a chat with his little landy modding firm they may just be able to help you. this is what there little one sounds like

Top job mate, I like it.

Where did you get the flexi pipe from?

Stu.

gtomo2 · « **Reply #10 on:** July 08, 2007, 20:44:15 »

Its from a firm called "ces" (chester exhurst surpplies) they have depos all over the place. iirc it was Â£20 for a 10 foot lenght

Nice job mate does it rattle? mine is at the min carn't seem to stop it :roll:

gtomo2 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 08, 2007, 21:16:20 »

No rattle it fits nice and tight into the hole and the pipe clears all the metal at the back.

Guardian. · « **Reply #13 on:** July 08, 2007, 21:21:10 »

done a nice job of that!

Dave · « **Reply #14 on:** July 08, 2007, 21:22:36 »

I suspect it may be the body rattling on the pipe not the pipe rattling on the body so to speek

.

Look good mate

gtomo2 · « **Reply #15 on:** July 08, 2007, 21:24:13 »

Thanks.
FOund the body mount on mine had broke were it joins the rear mud flap bracket to the body work. Stuck i nice big selftapper in so think that could course a rattle

Tomo, are you mikes mate by any chance? If so what a strange coincidence.

Disco_Stu · « **Reply #18 on:** July 08, 2007, 21:44:24 »

Mike from here:

http://www.landyworld.co.uk/

I emailed him yesterday to ask how he was getting on with his side exit project, he mailed back to say he wasnt, had sold the motor to his mate who was going to have a crack at it.

Then your post appeared and I thought.....No Way....

But its probably totally unconnected right? :)

Stu.
