Are all exhaust fittings the same between different Calibra models?
« on: January 28, 2012, 15:15:45 PM »

Might be a dumb question, but are exhausts interchangeable between different model Calibra's?

I've seen the exhaust below up for sale. Its off a Calibra, but the seller doesn't know which model it came off.

Anyone know which model(s) it would fit?

Hangers are different I believe, nothing a bit of bodging wouldn't sort I'm sure, LOL! Which one of the fleet is it for?

The exhaust from my 8v, laid out next to a V6 one was identical from the cat back including the hangers.

AFAIK, the only different one was from a C20XE. Something to do with how at runs over/under the rear crossmember. Don't quote me on that though, just something I'm sure I've read here previously.

As above - except the 8V automatic has a two piece middle pipe - there's an additional bolt in section up to rear box rather than a one piece pipe from middle box.

The turbo is different as it is bigger diameter and is routed over the rear driveshaft. Some of the early 16v's were the same as there was the non-turbo 4x4 that needed the same routing. The one in the pic above is from the v6/ecotec layout.

Torrent, do you have a spare 'Caps Lock' key in your parts collection as yours appears to be stuck on?
