violetpop Silver Donating Members 436 Member For: 5y 1m 7d Posted 31/12/20 07:52 AM Author Share Posted 31/12/20 07:52 AM I did some late night digging through old threads last night and did see a lot of 3.5 vs 4 which led me to settle on the 3.5. If a used 4 inch comes up cheap I'll get it though. See what happens in the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violetpop Silver Donating Members 436 Member For: 5y 1m 7d Posted 05/01/21 09:04 AM Author Share Posted 05/01/21 09:04 AM Been trying to chase up a dump and cat without much luck. The guys on market place are cagey as hell and retailers simply don't want my money. 'Ill call you back' is code for I wont call you back, I wont even write your number down.The search goes on!I also managed to drag out my old engine stand which had been sitting outside in the rain for several years and give it a quick and dirty tidy up plus paint job. Its a pretty solid thing and took the barra no worries. I then started to pull the basics off and have a little look. Its dirty and as expected has a decent amount of varnish and crud build up. The plan is to slowly build this engine up and spread the cost out over months and when the time is right, get it back in the car.More to come in the near future... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my cat from outlaw4x4 but it doesn't look like they make them anymore, I just called around their distributors for a shop and price, was about $180 I think. Its not the cheap ebay 'outlaw' one though they are crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puffwagon Trust me bro... Gold Donating Members 16,056 Member For: 9y 11m 16d Gender: Male Location: South Australia Posted 05/01/21 10:03 AM Share Posted 05/01/21 10:03 AM I'd give it another week or so as a lot of shops aren't even open yet this year. They'll be there working on their own sh*t and might even answer the phone, but give it a couple of weeks. Dunno if this is the same place but they seem alright when dealing with them.

I went to him years ago and spoke to him about making up a link pipe for a motorcycle exhaust. He sounded switched on but wanted more than what I could get a whole new system for.
