Default 6 degree exhaust mod

As title really is the exhaust needed to be modded at all when fitting 6 degree beam - I'll be fitted a supra diff at the same time and that makes the rear section sit lower so wondered if I'm going to run in to issues

I,ve got 6 Deg and supra diff fitted and yes it will need modding.

My centre box is quite long and is rattling on a trailing arm adjuster, so I,m going to get the centre box moved forward 3" so it's in front of the beam and arms.

Also where it comes under the front mounting point of the diff, I had an inch sized area hammered in (down) 10mm, to stop the top of the exhaust pipe rattling on the countersunk Allen key bolt head.

Mark Shead sent my car up north to be done but cannot remeber who did it, he could tell you though.

I too had to modify for the supra diff but that was to be expected as mine is a pug. I also had to do a bit of hammering for the skyline box.

Hi Dave, what make of exhaust did you have or was it a whole new BCS system?

Was it much to have your system modded?
