right am gonna fit a standard full exhaust system this weekend to my vtr. manifold all the way back. ive got all of the exhaust parts. but do i need to get new rubbers for hanging it? also i need to get new clamps because they look pretty badly rusted. is there a certain size off exhaust clamps that i would need? sorry if the questions sound stupid but its beacause ive never done something like this before. but it doesn`t look hard thats why im gonna tackle it , plus to keep the cost down as im selling it after. also any tips to fitting it. thanks in advance and reps are included. :y:

my local halfords does the exhaust clamps, think they are only a couple of quid, also they are adjustable so i think its a case of one size fits all.
as for the rubbers it they are not damaged then they should be fine, if you need to raise the height of the backbox, use some cable ties to pull the rubber together

halfords is just up the road from me to. so thats the place to go then? would i just tell them what i need and they would sort the size out? also would i need some off that exhaust putty?

yes mate, the exhaust putty stops it from blowing,
the clamps have bolts each end so you just tighten it to the required size, think they only come in one universal size, not sure, worth taking a note of the diameter of the pipe with you
