Departure 2 PRO

Post by craig »

I've got my Departure 2 PRO on the way from Jase, but just lately I've been reading about people saying theirs has rusted off and had to be welded and welded to keep it together! :shock:

Also saying it sounds crap and the quality sucks......thinking about selling it on when I get it rather than replacing the NUR SPEC.

Reading on MR2OC people say that the 2 different steels used on the exhaust cause the mild steel to rust faster :cry:

I'm gutted :cry: :cry:

If before I fit the Dept 2, I rub down the mild steel and coat it with a few coats of paint, will this suffice to protect it from corroding?

Cheers,

Craig :D

It certainly won't do any harm. Just make sure you use the high temp stuff. I think under the car the exhaust takes a fair battering from the elements/salt etc, so putting a few coats on, making sure its well covered will help no end.

Because with the nur spec, I can leave it on and not worry about having to take it off to spray it up :(
