The key with ebay is to just make sure your buying legit parts and not counterfeits. I got my HKS turbo exhaust and HKS downpipe off there new at a great price....searches desk for reciepts....567shipped for catback and 220 shipped for downpipe.

ninja edit: Thats a killer price! I'd go for it!

I don't know the exhaust, or the price for it, but I can say I trust e-bay.....just not all of the sellers. You've got over 5+ days before the auction ends. Contact the seller. ask real questions. Does he/she answer smartly-promptly? contact a previous buyer, see how the transaction went down. Works for me!!

It's buy it now, so if someone else decides its a good idea first, its gone. However asking questions is always a good idea!

I dont know enough about them, maybe something to research. Thanks to the new law here in mass (for once a law making things easier) OBD 1 and prior vehicles no longer have to pass emissions

I can only dream

Or someone really needs the cash, check his history.



Isn't the point of the test pipe so for emmisions you bolt your cat in, then when your done bolt the "test" pipe back in and enjoy:)?

Easton, Ma
go for it!
some people just don't know what they have.
i got a parts car for $700, had over $2k in mods including my tanabe exhaust and BIC DDP.

i got 70% of all my parts from ebay, and got most of them within a week.
good feedback is KEY.

Am I the only one who notices that the exhaust in questions isn't a full RSR system, but just a mandrel-bend 3" pipe with an RSR GT2 muffler welded to the end?
I'm fairly certain the RSR GTII catback system has several separate peices held together by springs with a resonator before the muffler.

Even still, it appears to be a well built system; but the price makes a little more sense now. That's probably what I would charge for it. The deal is fair.

Looks like a decent exhaust system for the price.

As noted, It's not a full RSR system. It's a custom with an RSR muffler. Personally I'd grab it and then weld a resonator into it if I were tight on money and couldn't afford a full system.
