Back boxes for 2000 Jimny M13A??

I'm currently looking at MG Midget stainless exhausts. I followed a tidy one recently and had a eureka moment!! Its practically the same config and i'd guess it would just need a bit of tweeking. Stainless ones are reasonably priced too, its also a similiar bore to a jimny system.
Mine is currently de-laminating and i've pulled of a couple of rattling layers already, i figure i can take a punt on the mg box and if it doesn't work i'll flog it.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

Did the Mg exhaust fit on the Jimny? Have you got any pictures of it fitted? I'd be interested seeing how it fits as my back box has had it and could do with replacing!

I've not had chance to look any further into the idea. The box looks very similiar to the jimny one though so the only thing that may be an issue would be mating it up to the stock system and the hangers.

I'm just looking at starting to produce stainless backbox's for a jimny,
mainly because i can't buy one i thought i'd Tig one up.....
I need an old backbox to measure up and see how much interest there would be!!!

They won't be all boy racerish just a nice subtle note!!!

Sounds good to me! Keep us posted as I would be interested in a new back box and maybe a full system if you decide to make that too!

Add me to the list, i'd like a cat back system thats a nice burble generally but really sings when you plant it! I know i want my cake etc, etc........

I'd like one thats got that real n/a ricer sound like civics etc have but reckon it would get really tiring eventually.

I'm surprised Janspeed haven't produced one considering they did a full system and 4 branch for the sj's
