Default Exhaust Replacement

I know I still need to post some pics, I'm working on it! Believe me.

Anyways, my exhaust is going quickly. Replaced the muffler 2 years ago so that's fine but now there is a hole in the pipe. I can't find where I can buy a whole OEM system new so I'm trying to look for used.

Would some of the 92-01 Integra exhausts fit?

Honda Civic EX, 1999, Sedan
4speedAT

thanks for any help!

i found www.hondapartsnow.com and www.hondapartscheap.com, I found the OEM piece I need (intermediate pipe B) but it's $150+Shipping and would like to find a cheaper but as comparable as the OEM part.


Also, would any other honda model parts fit? I found the pipe from a 1995 DX Coupe for $25 that looks like new.

My brother basically needs the same part on his exhaust system (97 Civic LX). MIDAS quoted him $328.52 for the job. He will most likely be just buying the pipe from Honda and having me install it.

Integra exhausts will not fit. You should be able to use a B-pipe from any 92-95 Civic coupe/sedan, or 96-00 Civic coupe or sedan (EX/SI only). I have a spare B pipe from Honda that was from my 99 Civic EX and it is in excellent condition (used for about 1 year) Where ya located?

i would just replace the whole exhaust with an ebay aftermarket exhaust.

the exhaust on my lady's acura cl broke in half, and when i found out that a stock replacement would be 230+, i opted to jump on ebay and buy a full catback for about 100 shipped, fit perfectly and is a nice addition since i wasn't looking for any performance gains, just to fix the exhaust. sounds nice and aggressive but still quiet with the silencer in

I'm in central MD, right outside of DC. I'm going out to WV this weekend and NC next weekend if that makes a difference.

Maybe we can talk about the piece you have (and excuse me if I'm violating any rules) and what you might want for it?


blackpearl...I have been looking at those too. but I don't want the noise from them. do they all put out that loud, obnoxious sound? Or is that what the silencer is for? Also, any problem with them passing emissions?

This is one I found that seems decent enough. Any thoughts?

also, whether I get some aftermarket piece or get the OEM pipe, should I buy new gaskets? sorry if this should be in the DIY section. Mod's feel free to move it.

IMO it's nice and quiet with the silencer in. It's not like I'm looking for performance or noise and such so there's no reason to leave the silencer out. The Acura cl is a luxury car andi feel it still retains it's nature with the exhaust on. But it is louder than stock, nice and low though.
