so i ordered up a 3" 240sx exhaust like the one i have on my s13. i figured mounting points aside and some min-fabbing this would be an easy conversion.And the fact that iam doing a single let's try this. 

i know there are e-gay supra kits but i got this one at half thier price. So digging around and removing the heat shield on the left side. i noticed the mount holding this was rusted to ****.

i have a front sensor also iam going to remount. i don't think this was working when i got the car. but hopefully i can get it running and save me some coin. Wonder how this k-40 stacks up against a valentine one??

so mocking up an idea on how i want this to look.

so i had to remove the tow bracket on the right side for cleareance issues. then this gory-hole appeared.

then i showed that ***** who's boss.

so it's a 240sx right?? so why not get a 240sx mounting bracket..

looks like the plan is working so far. a quick trip to ace hardware, then a prompt raping of my ******* of $12 for these fkn bolts.

i had to cut away some of the bumper for a clear shot of the bolts.

more nissan-******ry. sourced a ser exhaust hangar and a long doughnut.

had to cut this rod, as it was facing the wrong way. will save it for my exhaust guy to make majic.

AND HERES SOME FINISHED SHOTS!!!

OH NOES!!! IT'S TOO LONG(thats what she said,"oh my cervix"). Well have to take some inches off.

and heres the new mounting point of my rear sensor

well my exhaust guy has some small tweaks to do..

i did this because i wanted a "floating" idea on how where my exhaust would sit. the front is being held up my zip ties at the moment. i plan on getting a 3" test pipe,cutting it in the middle and extending it with gauged steel. then cutting a hollow cat and welding that together. 

not sure how long i need from the end of my v-band dp to the catback system??

so today we fabbed up a mount for the powersteer resv. digging in my parts bin and?? yes more nissan-******ry.

used the 3rd brakelight bracket. and worked like a charm.
