Can anyone recommend an exhaust shop? I'm in the Eastern suburbs.
It's for my 1600 rally beast, so somewhere with that sort of experience would be great.

Thanks,

Unique Exhausts in Bayswater are great. They did my exhaust a couple of years back on my 200B. They sat it real close to the body but had it mounted real well so it ever vibrated. Look them up. A place to avoid would be Mr Muffler, also in bayswater, got my extractors fitted there and when i got my car home i checked over it and most of the bolts where loose. So shoulda just done it myself.

+2 for Unique. Michael and his guys are great, and know their stuff.

Oakleigh exhausts did my 1600 when I had the L18 in it. Tucked it all in very well. Was a pretty good price to.

Performance Exhaust in Ringwood did a great job on a mates 180B rally car and they are a *very* rally friendly shop too (HRA scrutineering is held there).

+1 for Performance. Dave and Matt are tops, and the welder who does their work (who ever it is) knows his stainless welding $hit.

I'd use either Performance or Unique. Both are very good.

I didn't know the owner of unique died! I went in there the other day to buy some bends and knew the new owner. That is sad, he wasn't very old. The new owner enjoys his performance stuff, has a turbo'd sprinter i think, nice bloke too.

Performace exhaust in ringwood have done a few of my mates turbo full 3 inch systems. Good price and good blokes

Thanks for the info guys. I was thinking of Performance Exhaust, as it's close by, but wasn't sure if anyone had been there.
