Yes thats the one, looks pretty well made at the price. Seller wanted me to take pics of the standard one to make sure this was going to fit. Arrived quickly as well. Will take a few measurements and check it against whats needed.

Lets just say it cost me less than the non-stainless one from Australia would have including postage. They Kindly marked it as a sample and included a invoice for $30 USD, which meant customs in this country didn't charge me import tax :-)

Sounds familiar :laugh:

I like the entire exhaust they sell, also the sound in it, but $516 just in shipping...

No, its a standard thing that company sells. They did want me to send pics of mine over, but that was to check that they are the same for left hand drive as for right hand drive.

As Ola says, its worth contacting them for discount on the shipping first and they make a very nice full exhaust as well.

That's a real bargain IMHO!
...And this puts things into perspective - during the week I was given/gifted a special manifold for my prewar MG. Nothing as shiny and dramatic, but these cost in the region of £500 :S

Not quite. Tallest front. Unless you're using a pair of standard front to put a bit of a lift into the back. But you have a lift set so tallest in the front and the shorter of the rear ones on the passenger side to avoid Jimny lean.
