WANTED: Mk1 VW Jetta Exhaust

[jettadeluxe]

Since I know there's a few VW fans on here, anyone have or know where I can get hold of a centre section and tailpipe?

Mk1 1.3 Jetta variety!

Thanks!

GSF ?

Centre section is same as a Golf, can't get backboxes any more... Will probably have to be a custom jobbie. Or make one - use a MK1 Golf one and extend the tailpipe ;D

GSF don't list anything for Mk1, apart from the 1.6 GTI, would this work?

I guess an extention to the tailpipe would be no bother, just get a curved chrome tip and exit it pointed out under the rear quarter?

1.3 and 1.6 exhausts are different - diameter is different and also the place where the front and middle sections join - 1.6 joins just before the tail box at rear side of axle, 1.3 joins at the front side of the rear axle and goes over the axle into the rear box....god that sounds confusing

I bought my exhaust inc downpipe from gsf for my 1.8 mk1 gti, have a look at a mk2 polo centre section in your local gsf its fairly long.

will check the works exhaust book tomorrow

79-83 no listing for back box - all other sections available tho

they list 83-84 under that and it looks same as 79.83 only the kink that goes over the axle isnt as pronounced (hope its a mk1 not mk2 lol)

will get a pic tomorrow

if you have a partco autoparts or unipart near you they will show you the book........

I have a Timax catalogue somewhere (used to work for them) but can't find it at the mo - bet my dad has moved it

look here - buypartsby.co.uk/exhausts_details.php?recordID=3518 and here - buypartsby.co.uk/exhausts_details.php?recordID=3585

it looks like the only difference between the golf and jetta back boxes is the tail pipes.
