Does anyone here know a place that installs exhausts for cheap? Or is it easy enough to do on your own/ with a couple buddies?

just need some input haha

You can do it on your own, just need a jack and 2 jack stands, 10 12 14 mm ratchet. I'll actually be swapping mine out on Monday/Tuesday when I pick up my new exhaust. Also it wouldn't hurt to get any can of rust release spray, even though this is a new car it still makes the job 10 times easier.

You can do it on your own easily. I am actually going to be installing my test pipe some time next week. I may do a mini install day meet at my house soon. I know someone else that may be needing a helping hand too.

With one other person its easy. Just need a jack and stands

hanabie · 09-26-2013, 12:14 PM

exhausts are easy to install. 4 jack stands and a hydro lift.
Why don't u ask ur friends to help u?
Don't pay $50 for exhaust install.

I'm not comfy with 2 jack stands only lol as I'm working under the car. I slide a tire under the car's side just for security.
If you are working with 2 jack stands, make sure u have chucks for ur front tire and hand brake fully engaged. It can be extremely scary.

Most exhausts nowadays are just bolt on and aren't too difficult to install as long as you have the proper equipment. If you do run into some issues or find it a little too time consuming we can always help you out

Will probably be doing a spring install on my brz this weekend with @AmirGhardiri

He's been a huge help with me. If you're free and interested, we can probably fit you in before, or just after. I have everything we need, and were located in corona, so not too far of a drive from you.

bear89103 · 09-26-2013, 12:54 PM

Yea, I would give a +1 to @Amir Ghadiri

He's a really nice guy and friendly. Maybe you could ask him.

If that doesn't seem likely for you, another possible place is @Evasive Motorsports
They've done a lot of the work on my car and Randy is super nice and they'll do a great job.

Evasive Motorsports · 09-26-2013, 02:15 PM

jgonx213 · 09-26-2013, 02:51 PM

depends? are you only installing the axleback?

jflogerzi · 09-26-2013, 02:56 PM

If you want a set of jacks and stands for future work, Harbor freight always has good deals

WD40 helps get the hangers off. Big help for sure.

hanabie · 09-26-2013, 05:11 PM

I used handsoap water mix lol. It worked like a charm. No need WD40
