Yeah, loud AF! Just a 2 1/2" pipe and cherry bomb.

My MOT man said ot was the best condition he'd seen it in this year. Only some leaky oil seals.

Hmm something to think about, the exhaust I have currently is an old carlton stainless box + pipe fitted, but for some reason the previous owner has tried to weld it after having a split, needless to say it hasn't fixed it and has blown through and destroyed the resonator.

Very nice, does look good. Hopefully mine will be tip top soon, Luckily the chassis side of the sj is solid just a small 10p size hole near the o/s/f spring hanger I think, but still going to blast it back and coat it with por15 for extra security.

Any idea where would be best to pick up a 1.6 vitara engine?

Just ask on the forum, they pop up quite often.

I know of one near me. Not sure on price though.

It was running fine, should still be complete with all ancils (alternator, PAS, radiator, PAS box) etc.....

All depends on your budget. Can be shipped on a pallet if required.
