My new rx7 exhaust!!!
of course being me i had to do it custom...so i bought some mandrel piping and did it from scratch. cut weld cut weld....yay!!!!
on to the pics...
now as you can see the exhaust hands slightly to low (for my tastes) however i will be cutting my down pipe and raising it about and inch and a half to add more ground clearance for when i drop this thing

Do you have any kind of extra vibrations with this? Or do you have a few rubber hangers/flexpipe? I just welded up something similar but using a stock-ish mufler and 2.5" with mandrels and I welded it up maybe a little too close i think,it vibrates some throughout the rpm's even though it does not actually touch the underbody,I think a flex-pipe is in order unless you have any tips.

This is a 3" mandrel setup all the way back.
its a 3 inch cutout.
its not Ti since Ti is VERY VERY hard to weld without the proper setup.
grinding on the rear end...well probably because its not stock
(custom home brewed)
those are megan coilovers...
Muffler is a Aspec Blastpipe...its stainless with heat treated tips. its not even a muffler...just full back tips..lol
no sound clips as of yet as i dont have my cam working properly yet...maybe soon..(btw guys this isnt rotary so dont expect the same sound)
and just for poo's and giggles some more pics since some peeps been commenting on the rear setup.

and why not...a few more...even though this might get moved like usual
and the tips...
wasnt quite enough room...this is why they dont look upturned...but i think in the end it came out good looking.

love the coilovers!!! the exhaust looks really nice as well. i'm sure it'll be loud. i'm not a fan of the piston engine in the 7, but i respect the amount of work and time that it took to put in as well as the love you must have for the car. keep us updated on your progress!
