Well, if it's metal, I'm sure it can rust.

hehe true, well I never seen what they really look like with out being installed on a car. Also since the rotary engine use alot of heat I though they use a special kind of metal and maybe that will help not let it get rusty that fast like normal mufflers. At least have a longer life to them than the normal exhaust systems.

My guess is that they are made of higher grade stuff, and DO rust out slower. Probably much slower.

On a side note, you DO have to keep one of your stock pipes for the installation of the racing beat. That will probably still be rusted

I'll be getting my full RB kit soon enough, I'll take plenty of 'out of car' pics.

Peace!
