Just a quick heads up to ppl buying stainless exhaust systems from just jap. They are very good value for money and arent generally too bad but be aware they dont appear to have machine finished flanges. This can be a problem because the metal warps during welding (manufacturing) and as a result wont make an airtight seal. I had to pull mine apart and get all the flanges machined right after i had it fitted.

i got a front pipe/dump pipe fromt them, and it came up short of missing the existing zaust by about 4 or 5cm..

However, existing catback could be the problem also, guess I'll never know :-P
