I've just picked one up, can anyone tell me in more detail what kind of modification i need to do to it to get it to fit a RHD car? Cheers

 

Oh dear.:( I bought one of these from Nic a while ago after being told it only needed slight modification. In the end the garage had to bend it so much to avoid the steering column I ended up binning it.

Hummm i've heard some people have a nightmare with these and some have them go straight on without worries.

 

I guess they all vary slightly in shape/angle when they are manufactured.

 

Oh well i'll see whats what when it turns up :)

 

Just out of curiosity how much did yours cost you? (seeing if i got a good deal)

Was quite a while ago but I think about £300. The garage got it on in the end but they'd had to bend it and squash it so much that one of the pipes was down to probably half it's original cross sectional area. They said because of the reduced gas flow there was a chance of the cylinder over heating. Wasn't a risk I was willing to take. Also it was ridiculously loud :lol:

I have an autobaahn 88 on my supra, the only thing i had to do was re drill the stud hole pattern as they were slightly out of line due to the holes being different sizes. Also my supra is very loud as it has no cats and only the back box

 

Yep exactly the same with mine, just filed out the holes slightly

I believe it's one (or both) of the o2 sensor mounts that foul the steering column. There was a post about it earlier in the year.

 

It's the actual pipework that fouls the steering column where the 3 pipes go into 1, this is pic of one of mine fitted.
