2G GST's be aware...

[Spoolin98]

Dude first of i'd like to know where your geting rear axles from on a GST cuzz there are none on a GST. There are only rear axles on the GSX's. Secondly i'll really dont think that your gas tank could have crushed your exhaust considering that the gas tank sits well above the sub frame. I really think you just might have run over some thing. but i could be wrong.

If you would have read the entire thread you would have noticed that i corrected myself earlier by saying i meant subframe not rear axles. Once again, i understand that the exhaust runs over the subframe and under the gastank, but what i dont understand is how you are saying that the gastank doesnt lower when you lower the car. That makes no sense. Comments...

 

[Zex4g63]

Simply put there are no moving parts around the exhaust that could crush it by lowering the car.

 

[gixrman]

Hey I crushed my oilpan on a F-ing speed bump can I get some love? Would'nt you notice and huge drop in power from crushing the exhuast? No flow? :thumbdown It would be like a monkey stuck in your a$$

Dude once again do you even know what the subframe is and are you sure your not talking about some thing else. secondly when have ( i said that the gastank doesnt lower when you lower the car.) That makes no sense. Comments...[/QUOTE]
Cuzz the gas tank those lower along with the rest of the chaise. but the distance between the gas tank and the exhaust doesn't change.

Here is a question for some of you. Does the gas tank "mount" on the subframe/uni-body? ( I don't give a shit what you call it either).

But Spoolin98 has a great theory.

You'll have to have a good imagination with what I am about to tell you.

Think of it like placing the exhaust in between an adjustable chair <--(chair is gas tank) and floor <--(floor is subframe).

If you place the exhaust in between the chair <--(gas tank) and floor <--(subframe) you'll have (hypothetically speaking) 10 inches, right?

Now, if you let air out <--(drop the car) out of the chair <--(gas tank) lets say 5 inches (again, hypothetically speaking) you'll have how much distance in between?
You guessed it! 5 inches.

So what does that mean in theory? That the gas tank did in fact come close enough to possibly smash, kink, bend, or dent his exhaust.

Spoolin98 I am all with you!!

 

[GPTourer]

I know this is an N/T, but it doesn't matter. It was the only 2G in the shop at the time. The rear brace does not move, therefore the distance can't change. When the car gets lowered, the control arms move, but the exhaust is nowhere near it. Enjoy.

 

[hostile]

The muffler is still low enough to get pushed on. If the car is really low, and he backed out of a driveway it is going to push up and forward on the muffler.

In his case it could have bent at the curve above the subframe when it pushed upgainst the body.

 

[JessesTalon]

Why don't you just rerun the exhaust under the rear? like AWD's do. I mean there really is no reason to have that extra bend to go up over it is there?

First of all, yes i do know what and where the subframe is. Secondly i wasnt addressing you when i was talking about the gastank. Like i said before, i dont really like the way you address your comments with your cocky attitude, stop replying to this thread, i dont want to read anything you have to say.

EvolvingGS-T, thanks for the support, you seem to understand exactly what i am trying to say. Everyone is looking at this the wrong way. If the gastank lowers with the body, and the subfram doesnt, and the exhaust is inbetween the both of them, how can you say that the distance between the gastank and the subframe stay the same when the car is lowered? I dont understand why they make the aftermarket exhausts for GS-T's go over the subframe, they should go under like the GSX's.

 

[GPTourer]

The pipe goes around the gas tank, how is it going to crush it? A lowered car is going to be hell on your muffler no matter what you do, maybe something pushed against it and caused the bend further up, but not because it got pinched in between.

 

[karnsatron]

Also as everybody can clearly see, lowering the car does not change the height relationship between the gas tank, body, and subframe. Lowering the car simply can't crush the exhaust pipe like you are describing, only if the exhaust ran on top of one of the control arms.

Well thank for proving my point that you really dont have a clue to what you taking about
cuzz not only you dont know what a subframe is, the exhaust doesn't even run under the gas tank. As you can clearly see in the picture provided by DSM member GTPOURER the exhaust goes around the gas tank and, it goes over the rear suspension crossmember.
Now like i said you really dont know what you taking about since you dont even know the diffrence between the subframe and the suspension crossmember.
Now to adress my "so called cocky attitude" if you dont like my writing than dont read it and go read some thing else perhaps a childrens book.

DSM WHORE, in case you didnt notice, i started this thread. So if you want to tell someone to go somewhere else, tell yourself. You need to stop trying to be an internet tough guy, its not working too well. Everyone else in this thread is posting valuable information, you, your nothing but worthless space providing worthless information. Now like i aked before, can you stop posting in here, i dont care about what you have to say. Everyone else, thanks for all the useful information. As for DSM WHORE, go suck **** like your name states.

Ok now dont get all emotional on me. Your just made that I'am right and you dont want to admit that iam. secondly i have never told you to go somewhere else. But since you told me to so i will. like you said my name states i will go and suck your moms ***** all night long

Thank you. I was going to get a pic tonight , but now I can just drink beer.

Wow, good come back there! You should really take some english classes and learn how to spell. Now back to the subject, anyone else have some input on this. If its not the gastank thats above the exhaust, then whats above it?

 

[Clipse7]

Zex and GPTourer seem sure there are right, everyone else is sure they are right. Someone, please sum this up.

 

[DSM_WHORE]

Wow, good come back there! You should really take some english classes and learn how to spell. Now back to the subject, anyone else have some input on this. If its not the gastank thats above the exhaust, then whats above it?

Wow so you noticed that i missed placed the letter E on on of the words. So aren't you just so special now. Please give your self a nice pat on the back. Thats the first intelligent
thing that i heard from you all day. Now please dont do any more thinking today or you just might hurt your self.

Now back to your question. The only thing above the is the exhaust is the chaise along with some heat protection covers. Now let me explain to you once more how the exhaust runs. the exhaust pipe runs down from your turbo if you have one. Then the exhaust curves under the engine. Than it runs straight down going it to your catalytic converter if you have one. Then it curves around the gas tank. then it curves over the rear suspension crossmember. To help you understand what that is its the part you keep calling the subframe which its not. That part is called the crossmember to which your control arms attach to. Now if you look under there you will notice that the exhaust pipe bends over the crossmember and, goes in to you muffler. Now like many people including my self in this thread have already have tried to explain to you why that there is no way that the gas tank could have crushed your exhaust. Now just incase if you think that the big hump under the rear end of you car is the gas tank your mistaken again cuzz its not its just empty space for which you spare tire goes in to. Your gan tank is actually is in the middle of your car under the rear passenger seats. Now having said all that the only possible way that your exhaust pipe could have been crushed by your gas tank is if it was install improperly under the gas tank.

First off it doesn't matter what the thing is called, as long as we know what he means. Second, I understand what Spoolin means about the body being lowered onto the exhaust because the crossmember/subframe will always remain at the same height, but I don't see anything that would crush it, as it goes around the gas tank. I would bet that it was done by the muffler being pushed up into the rest of the system. Just my .02.

 

[karnsatron]

Second, I understand what Spoolin means about the body being lowered onto the exhaust because the crossmember/subframe will always remain at the same height,

No. The crossmember/subframe will not remain at the same height if the car is lowered. It is solidly bolted to the body. The only thing in the rear on a 2g that moves with the suspension is the controls arms. Period.

If you lower the car, you lower the:

1. body
2. crossmember/subframe
3. gas tank
4. exhaust.

Anybody who thinks he crushed his exhaust in the way he's describing is wrong.

The End.

Dude not to be an ass hole but it kinda does matter that you know what the part is called when you ask a question, so that there would be no misunderstanding. And if you're not sure what the part is called than dont try to act like a smart ass like you do when really you have no clue.

Nicely put Dude, its nice to know that somebody know what there talking about in this thread. When you lower the car the only thing that changes besides the obvious distance
between the cars chaise and, the ground is the control arms. The rest is solidly bolted or welded like your exhaust system to the cars chaise.
