Sounds like you\'ve bought a LHD down pipe, alot of the e-bay specials are US parts, best sticking to branded parts like HKS, Trust, Feed etc......

One way to resolve the issue, is take a man sized hammer and knock the crap out of it. :D

usually would but it came with the car so was going to fit it any way. but dont want to go to to much both with it as the car is going up for sale.
now that you say it am thinking you could be right about it being for a lhd. may cut and weld it.maybe.
