NO more BRZ Exhausts for sale from Subaru
 
Hi
Contacted Subaru Jhb and CT to purchase a BRZ exhaust for my 86. Both offices informed me they are discontinuing the BRZ in SA and don't order/source the local performance exhausts anymore.
Tienie the dealer principle from CT indicated that if he has about 10 orders he "could possibly" get in a batch.

Anyone interested in a group buy ?

Alternately what is a good alternative exhaust without the "boom"

Regards

Maybe try the dealers as they might have stock, I purchased a BRZ exhaust today from Subaru centurion, friendly service manager, managed to get a discount as well, paid R5300, and they delivered it to Toyota for free (which is across the road) fitting it on tomorrow with my service, cannot wait, makes me excite!:happyanim:

Dealers meaning subaru branches, I'm going to pass my subaru centurion tomorrow when I pick up my car and will find out if they can get you one, will let you know

Wondering if it's not just the transport cost/faff of sending it from Pretoria (where it's manufactured I believe) to CPT?

FT_86_SM_GP 08-06-2014 04:12 PM

Could be, because the parts guys called 'pretoria' when I was there and got it delivered from there to centurion.
@Freedom how much did you pay for your brz exhaust at the centurion subaru?

Confirmed by Subaru SA that this is NOT true.

Who is the manufacturer of this performance exhaust? Surely we could just go straight to them?

mrauto 08-07-2014 07:29 AM

Thanks Sav...just figured out some of them fed me BS.

Subaru Centurion is organizing me one and couriering it down to Subaru CT (the very guys that gave me the story) an no extra cost ! Shamai van Wyk was fantastic in assisting me.


The spares guys at Subaru Somerset West told me they don't have but its company policy not to sell to 86 owners ... didn't know whether to laugh or tell him to F off !

Just how loud is this exhaust ?

mrauto 08-07-2014 07:30 AM

I heard it is Van Graaf

DrSUTRA 08-07-2014 08:12 AM

It is De Graaf exhausts, but hey are manufacturing under exclusive contract with Subaru. It was developed with and for Subaru. Their badges are on the exhaust itself :-) They are indeed made in PTA!

Still loving mine :-)

Cheers!

They quoted me R5300, but I had Rikus(from RMS) pick it up and had Toyota install it. With installation it was R6300. Installation was R700, Rikus charged me R300.
