Eternalcar: 1 Vauxhall: 0
« on: 13 June 2010, 22:58:16 »
As many will know, Genuine GM exhausts used to be decent, double skinned items. Due to cost and what not, they started making them as a single skin item, which meant they were no longer cost effective.

Many members have used "Eternalcar" in Germany - who have always produced a simelar quality single skin exhaust, for a much better price.

Well, my estate needed an exhaust, so I ordered one from eternalcar, front to back.

I unwrapped it today, expecting to find the usual single skin exhaust sections...

... I was therefore pleasantly surprised, to find what appears to be a very well made double skin exhaust - it looks just like the old fashioned GM systems used to be  8-)

I guess, time will tell! I reckon they have gone one up on GM, though!!  :y

however, very good news about the exhaust, may need centre sections sooner rather than later, having paid the old good gm exhaust price for the new gm rubbish system. Awaiting pics i think are'nt we? ::)

My Eternal exhaust had one good quality looking double skinned box and one oval cheap-looking one.

Can't grumble for the money.

Has anyone fitted one these systems?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/EXHAUST-VAUXHALL-OMEGA-B-2-2-144HP-99-03-SALOON-451-/320541881241?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4aa1c8f399

Yep

Fitted a twin pipe system from them onto our 2.6 saloon, Mark fitted it for me and was impressed by both quality and ease of fitment
