I think it will yes... there are some people who say it will be too long, and some that say it works fine. I'll be trying it myself here soon:)

with the sr DP, you have to turn the flange a bit and re-weld it for it to line up correctly. with the sr outlet though, i think it works fine. from what i understand/have heard you wont have any problems.

teh SR downpipe fits perfectly if you use the SR 02 sensor housing, i am currently using this set up and my friend is also, no probs, the downpipe does sit alittle bit lower, maybe alittle less then an inch lower then the frame rail, but not too bad, just gota be careful not to bottom out, but yea it fits fine

Wow, that's pretty sweet. Too bad it'll be so expensive to get here after the heavy price tag plus shipping.

Yea, I know. I need to ask them about the shipping, but I really don't think it would be that heavy, just kinda big.

Ahem.. someone answered your question directly there buddy. Look up 2 replies. Yes, it'll work without a problem. It just hangs a tiny bit lower than it should.

I was in refrence top the posts above it.... Anyway, That style DP looks great. The 20 elbows are just a waste of money anyway.

I've gotten items shipped form Australia before. Not very expensive at all and suprisingly fast!

Hey, just wanted to let you know (if the auction price get higher), you can buy them from these guys: http://www.japanesemotorsport.com.au/ (goto page 4).

They also have a SS version, but it's more dough. I've bought from them before...cool guys. Fast shipping. Good luck either way.
