Exhaust fabrication

[Ivan141]

Hi guys,

I'm going to try and finally make myself an exhaust system. Now I dont know how to weld, and dont have any equipment to do it, but I'm sure something can be arranged (mux? ).
I have a stainless steel ebay exhaust, about the same size and shape of
the original, only more shiny with a bigger tip and it's straight-through design. Since my old stock exhaust needs welding very often, I plan to replace the pipe from the downpipe to the back. I wont be installing a new muffler where the middle one sits at the moment since it will cost me more and probably rust faster.

I ordered 2 2 meter sections of straight exhaust pipe, 54mm diameter, I also ordered 2 90 degree bends to avoid sharp turns where it is going to go over the diff. I think 54mm is more than big enough for an ae86, it's not a turbo car.

Does anyone have any experience with this? All advice is welcome.
If any of the dutch guys happen to have a spare rear section of an ae86 exhaust that might come in handy as an example.

I dont know how to connect the muffler to the ordinary steel piping I will be using, the muffler has a 60mm diameter that will need to be connected to the 54 mm piping. They have some parts that can interconnect pipes without welding, so I'll look into that.
