exhausted - for 92 gsr
I read the posts in the forum about the exhaust. It was suggested to use Apexi WSII, but it seems that they dont make one for my car. I have difficulty finding an exhaust to fit my car except for the following:
So I have found an RS-R Exmag for $549 (+40 ship), is that a "good" price? Also on ebay is a Tanabe T4029Z, complete catback system, for $440 +90 ship. The alternative is to have a relatively stock muffler installed for about $250. I do NOT want a loud system, but some performance would be nice. I may also need to rebuild as it is nearing 200k, so I am wondering about staying stock, or building it up some. Any help, suggestions, or references rebuilding a 92 GSR (1.7L) would be appreciated. Thanks |
yeah, any off-the-shelf catback is going to be around 500-600 bucks.
if a rebuild is around the corner, I would wait on the exhaust. how do you know you need one? I would check things like oil consumption, cylinder compression, cylinder leakdown, etc and go from there. |
RSR ExMag will be the quietest bolt-on cat-back you will find.
I highly recommend a Helms manual if you're thinking about rebuilding. It makes everything easier. |
rebuild?
Thank you for the suggestions.
I am judging by oil consumption that she needs a rebuild. It leaks some oil from the gaskets too. Also assuming that since mileage is climbing to 200k I am assuming things like timing belt should be replaced soon. Does the helms manual have like a list of things you should replace on a rebuild? I have seen a few rebuild kits (gaskets) on ebay. But will probably need water pump, and timing belt. I am not sure about other things such as valves, head, block. I mean, since I would have it all torn down shouldn't I just run the gambit? Where is a good source for the Helms manual? Anybody been this route? How much might I expect to spend? Then there is the question: Do I change cam, add header, mods, that kind of thing? Thanks for the help. |
