Latio sport exhaust pipe.
« on: April 05, 2009, 08:39:53 PM »
Is the exhaust pipe too low? Many times already when reverse parking, the exhaust hit the tyre stopper. Any bros experience this?

I think we have the same problem, my worry is that the pipe might be damaged after taking so many hits. Any bros here increase the height of their ride before thru TCM?

Can just insert spring stifferner to increase height by about 1 finger to the rear. Ride comfort remains the same  :smile:

The car is not that long, right? Why do you have to reverse all the way in until the exhaust pipe scrap the kerb or whatever? :confused1:

I changed to better muffler stifferner as the stock ones are pretty soft thus causin the muffler & exhaust tip to hit or scrap kerbs.
Afterwhich my exhaust is able to clear most of the kerbs whenever i reverse park my sedan latio.

hehehe...
& i tot i was the only one kena butt scratched!
after those few butt scrapes...me now more careful when reverse parking...me imagine me driving sedan...give more butt space..& oso..before parking...me look at the kerb...see how high..just to make meself more aware.
just make few minor adjustments to our not so good parking habits lah...we'll be fine.
