Where to get OEM Toyota Exhaust parts - Front Pipe

[Sirkbac]

I have a 4cy 2000 solara with a nice leaky exhaust. Seems to be leaking around the flexable part of the front pipe (ahead of the cat, braided metal). The car failed saftey inspections as a result of this minor leak.....thank god they caught it....don't know what kind of terror I could have unleashed with a pinhole in the exhaust! Anyways, trying to find out which Toyota cars share the exhaust parts with the 00 4cyl Solara, and where to order OEM parts with out getting ripped off. Really not looking forwards to paying dealer prices for a new Cat/pipe.

Thanks again,
Ed

just go to a muffler shop

there is no need to get an oem flex pipe.

But it just makes me fail faster now....
(turn up the brightness if you can't see it).

I'll check in with a muffler shop to see what they can whip up. Thanks.

Dude you need a new Cat and downpipe? You might as well purchase yourself a set of Ripp Modification's Headers for $429.00
It comes with the Headers/downpipe and highflow cat.

The OEM cat alone cost more than that. I remember when I had a leak in the down pipe due to going over a railroad hump to fast with my old 95 camry and the dealer wanted $678 installed just for the downpipe!!

Keep in mind that you will need to have the CAT welded to the downpipe even if you were to stick with OEM.
