EXHAUST SYSTEM INFO, 67 & 68 2000; 68 1600

........

Originally the muffler on the cars above was mounted directly under the drivers seat. Not only is this a hassle to remove and replace, it puts a heat source right next to the floor. This is made more dangerous by the rat-hair mat Nissan used as insulation. It collects departing engine oil into a nice basis for a future fire disaster.
The 69 cars were converted so that the muffler was mounted farther back, just in front of the rear axle. The front pipe that connects to manifold, and the rear resonator are the same on all cars. The center pipe was changed, as was the muffler, which now comes attached to the axle "hoop" pipe. As long as you order the muffler and hoop, and the center pipe, you can hook up to your original pieces.

All of the hangers remain the same on both systems.
