Vik54 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 The join with the back box is the first thing to go on a lot of OEM exhausts - common fault...its not just a case of a gasket - you could get it welded but it will go again within months - you'll pick up second hand OEM cat back for about £120-£170 no probs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jme 350z Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 oh bo*&^%$s so just back box or center section?? its like a stock car!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vik54 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 You'll need to look at your budget mate... I'd just go cat back - try any of the traders on here - I assume you've spoken to zmanalex already as he's posted a reply to you - or you could put up a wanted thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunmetalzgt Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I had mine properly welded with a sleave. Its been purr fect for months now Cost:- £30 - £60 If you exhaust is in otherwise good condition this might be your best option as it was for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jme 350z Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 did have a brief look the other day and saw some moisture on the join. may try welding but will have a look tonight and see what the crack is........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
