I will say this.....it maybe wrong, but it is my experience.

I went to Fox Exhaust System, otherwise known as Skyline Exhaust in Brisbane.

For just the muffler, he quoted me AUD 1,850

To be honest, that is riWakerleyulous, since i can get a FULL 3" exhaust system (not including the headers) for $485 including shipping from the USA. Since my car is old, i have been ordering replacement and aftermarket parts for 4 years from the USA without any problems.

Thing is, i can't just order the muffler and tip, since that vendor sells a complete kit (including copper gaskets, brackets and rubber mounts).

I don't mean to be rude, but it all comes down to the actuall part. It is just a muffler, nothing special about it. No need for mandral bends, special fittings and so on.

But yes, you would need to see the car, and see the options available before giving prices, but i am just letting you know what i experienced.

So, why don't we set an appointment, where is the location, contacts and so on?

what i got with me is actually 1 gr8 young, skilled & experinced mechanic..
he works in a garage has 10 yrs expeirnce in motor line.. he does sports car & everything rest..

and i undertake jobs for him. from tinting, stickering, interiors to building body parts, body design , engine modification/tune up, electronics etc..

he can modify any unequipped normal car for race in 30 minutes prior to the race. ( basic tune up__ + additional changes) & can guarentee the best performance without any additional equipments in the car.

however his labour charges are low.. the cost of the parts for modification comes cheap .. if you purchase it through him.

docar designs, concepts & do normal car repairs including electronics, electricals .. a/c etc ..

Tuning is my main key, as well as a dyometer (which are hard to come by here).

Tell you what, let's meet up?
