    Good Exhaust Shop in Brisbane: 3 inch time for the Defender

    Hi guys.


    I feel the std exhaust on the defender is giving it a case of asthma. So its time for a 3" mandrel system.(no mufflers)

    Can anyone recommend a good exhaust shop in Brisbane that does not charge the earth.

    Also if anyone has a similar setup how much did it cost you.?


    The tray has been lifted 4" to fit the raised shock mounts. So the exhaust would be very straight because it would run between the chassis and the tray.


    Thanks Ben......

    You could try removing just the centre muffler first. It's a cheap option and adds surprisingly little to the noise.

    If you go ahead with the upgrade I'll be interested to hear how you go with it.

    If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
    If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.

    I'm really chasing Hp....

    The std exhaust is ****ed because it was a surf life saving vehicle for 5 years it is very rusty so not worth spending money on it.

    The exhaust is the only rusty part left on it (New bulk head etc....)

    I used to get all my exhaust work done at right price exhausts at slacks creek. Was a few years ago now, but their prices were good.

    There is a mob at beaudesert which do mandrel bent exhausts in one piece (not using weld-in sections like most others). They are $$$ though.

    I've been told that Cookies Custom Pipes & Exhausts, 24 Gibbs St, Wynnum,
    (3393 3774) do good work. I haven't had a chance to use them yet, but might be looking at getting pipes made to re-route my intercooler, run a snorkel & so on.
