Exhaust Problem!

[superjim42]

Hi guys i own a gen 7 celica 2005 model and have a serious issue...

Whem i purchased the car it came with a sports exhaust where the rear box amd the centre box were upgraded...the cat and manifold are original parts.

Now the issue is that the centre box is breaking up inside and the bits are falling into the box and so is inside the rear box tailpipe...it is causing vibrations which are so freaking annoying!

I am in need of a centre pipe/box and cannot for the life of me find the part on eBay Amazon or the web! I dont want to fork out for a oem toyota exhaust system nor do i want to know fork out to get a custom job done...please help me...could anyone direct me to somewhere i can find a midpipe? This part seems to be the rarest object on earth! I can easily get a rear box off eBay for £60-£70 so i just require the centre part.

Thanks for reading and your help!

You could try these guys, Jay.

I have no idea if they are any good...never used them...but came across them a few weeks ago and kept their web details.

Good luck..and apologies if they are a waste of time.

Contact 'ams' who is a breaker on Celica Club uk he'll probably be able to help.

Could your problem be due to rattling heat shields. This is a very common fault on the Gen 7 as they rot out around the mounting bolts and flap against the muffler.

Thanks for the reply guys.

I have checked the heatshield out and it has rot around two bolts but they are not causing the sound as i had the car put on a ramp and when the engine was revved the sound came from middle box. When i knocked on the box i could hear "stuff" inside.

Thanks
