and http://www.cheapexhaust.com/toyota-corolla-muffler.html on this sight you have to go down to 1990-1992 Front Pipe (72818) 1.6L. my question is are those both the same piping and is that what i am looking for? just the peice of piping that runs from the cat back to the muffler? if its not would some one be willing to tell me what its actully called and maybe a link to a sight i can purchase it from? i thanks for everyone help!!

Is yours a sedan? I have a '90 (same car) and when I got it my exhaust was rotten as well. I went to a wrecking yard and got the whole shootin' match for about $30. The whole stock exhaust bolts together (no welding or cutting necessary), so all you have to do is find a wrecked car with a good exhaust. Yards can't sell used cats, but they can sell everyting else. With the car up on jackstands you can unbolt the old exhaust and manuever it out of the vehicle, then fit the replacement exhaust system. I was lucky enough to find a car with an excellent FACTORY exhaust system (had the original Toyota muffler, not some cheap-ass Midas POS), which is the way to go. There are tons of these in the wrecking yards, and finding a cheap used exhaust system should not be too tough. The part that Maximum has is the center exhaust pipe. It runs from the cat to the muffler. The part that CheapExhaust has is the front pipe. It runs from the manifold to the cat. Their prices are good, but a yard would be much cheaper. Good luck.

its a sedan, there arent many scrap yards around here, i would rather purchase new

my 91 used to rot out at least once a year or so. you can go to toyota and pay alot for the parts but they upgraded to stainless steel which is why. so its lifetime warranty exhuast.

i just want standerd. i am gonig to paint it black to help with the rust proofing

[dexter_5000]

most exhuast create too high of a heat to keep the paint on.

i have seen company's that sell paint that can withstand high temps, i am looking into purchasing it. should be no more then 7-8 dollars a can and it holds

try using the Factory Sport Unit from TRD, it has a stainless canister which you don't need to paint and will definitely not rot plus it has a twin tip exhaust from the base which gives the car a sportier look from the rear.
