Exhaust Fitment Issues - 6G Celicas Forums

Well no one's bitten at my fujitsubo exhaust(10days now) so I might consider keeping it if I don't sell by end of January. I actually like the sound it produces as I had a friend drive it while I was outside

But how do I prevent the muffler from banging on the crash bar? I can bairly just fit my pinky finger between muffler and crash bar.



Sure I can put some sort of padding, but that will eventually wear down. And removing crash bar will make it unsafe if someone hits me. Should I just chop away at crash bar and then spray primer to prevent rust?

Try...
Trim the bar a bit with a cut off wheel on a grinder
or
Adjust the hangers
or
Bigger (longer) rubber hangers.

I would trim the bar a bit.

Would some polyurethane hangers work?

I have very close clearances with the over axle 3in, only solution that helped was poly hangers.

I would cut the bar a bit, and use poly hangers for the rear muffler section. My clearance over the sub frame was very similar to that and poly hangers took care of the issue.
