Update on pacesetter exhaust

Aurora40 · May 2nd, 2005, 02:06 PM

It's been over a year now that I've had it on the 200SX. I don't have any complaints about it so far. The sound is decent, it's not very loud and not really buzzy.

The system is holding up fine so far, and the car is outside all year round. I didn't really buy it for performance or anything, so keep that in mind, but it was a nice low-cost alternative to a factory exhaust when mine rusted out.

I'm not a big fan of the yellow tip, and it doesn't soot up enough to hide the yellow. But it doesn't bother me very much.

Do like I did and paint it

I used a rattle can of flat black epoxy paint inside and out.

So it's been about two years now. It's still holding up ok. There is some surface rust showing on edges of the muffler case and a bit on the pipes. Not sure how serious it is.

Thankfully the yellow paint has pretty much all flaked off.

It seems like it's a bit louder, though maybe it's just me. One thing I've noticed is outside the car it is a bit loud under acceleration. It's just that I'm usually driving it so I never noticed.
