Well with most of you with older diesel surfs I'm guessing you have the same problem as me. When I have the back window down and driving I seem to get alot of fumes coming inside. How could I make less fumes? Could I put the exhaust coming out the side half way between the back and wheel (like dbs) and would this actually make any difference?

This is how mine is now:



Im looking at incorporating the exhaust to come out the side of my rear protection bar (when I hurray up and make it) so the exhaust is protected as well.

Any help would be great,

Cheers,

it'll happen with any open back of truck type scenario..

one thing ya could consider is having the exhaust point downwards more? urk i know cos of clearances, maybe put window up a bit and have a front window down a bit too to create a through current as opposed to a low pressure area at the rear suckin fumes up, back and into ya cab?

worth a nudge?

yer do what niblik said when i had the diesel in mine the end of the exhaust was pointed further down and i didn't get any fumes in the rear window when it was down

Yeah down probably would be the best. I'll have a chat to the pit stop boys and get them to do it.
It's really for just these hot months (and it looks cool ) hopefully by next summer itll be powered by a Supra 2.8 EFI DOHC 6 cylinder beast!!!! (I just scored the bellhousing yay!)

Cheers guys
