v6 back boxes
« on: 03 October 2011, 21:10:22 »

I've been looking for a twin tailpipe backbox for my V6 but its begining to look like Eternal are not supplying them anymore  :(

I've found this one which just happens to look like the one on the back of my car that I got from Eternal 18 months ago.

Has anybody used this company before ?
Any good ?

The Eternal system I put on it 18 months back was pretty good tbh but I just need a replacement rear  :y

I've destroyed 3 cats in the last 12 months  :'(
The 2 centre sections have been changed in the last 3 months but I can't seen to stop the rear box from blowing at the joint between the centre and rear.

I took the rear off 2 weeks ago and as I banged it on the floor, a pile of ceramic and honeycombe from the old cats came out.
It is still bunged up because it bangs like break when I rev the engine hard and then it starts to leak again  :'(

Looks like i'm going to have to bite the bullet and get my hand in my pocket before it does some real damage  :'(

When eternal run out of stock for a part, and awaiting on their supplier, they don't list it.  Wait a few weeks, and magically its back in stock ;)
