Post GT exhaust
Thanks to 2ldohc who started the ball rolling, AAA exhausts in Richmond Adelaide SA have done three classic Isuzus. Ask for Drew. He will asess the style of the vehicles note and any performance issue this might be causing, then fit a system to suit.

The pics show a resonator (hotdog) mid section where the old baffle box used to be. This tends to iron out the "grumbles" on decelaration and seems to increase output throughout the rev range. Ground clearance over shopping centre humps is no longer an issue either.

The sports muffler fitted out the back is well tucked away. It's also alot quieter and less vibro when idleing but still produces that awsome note when the foot goes down. Driving longer distances is less wearing and the back seat ride is alot smoother. Performance is up and fuel consumption is down, awsome :twisted:

Yeah mate, You know how it is, she's become part of the family and fits through the front door and the corridor anyway !?

No, seriously. Moving back to Adelaide after 25 years was a bonus. Large shed (with carpet).

That year has shot past somehow.Thanks for the reminder 65'.

yep, carpeted sheds rock!!
beats lying on cold concrete then not being able to move for 3 days...
mine is full of those carpet tiles they use in offices. got enuf to do my shed twice over, for FREE!!
best thing is, when they get really dirty, oily, whatever, u just pull the offending 1 out, bin it, and whack in a newy!!
