Picked up HKS rear with the '03+ mounting brackets installed on it. How hard/how much damange would it cause to remove them as I have an '04 cuarently and dont need the extra fitting?

 

I wasn't aware there was a difference! I have an HKS waiting on my front step at home.. I hope I don't have this same problem!

I had the HKS rear section installed for a while on my 06. I had to purchase the 03-04 bracket in order to mount it. I do not think you can use the 05 bracket, just need to reuse your current 03/04 one. It was designed according to the original fitment of the 03-04.

 

So I would just remove the bracket currently on this?

 

If you are sure that it is an 05/06 bracket then yes. Remove it and replace it with the one currently holding up your oem muffler.

 

It is another 03/04 b/c the previous owner had an '05x.

 

Soak the rubber hanger mounts with WD-40 so you can easily remove them (and re-use them if needed).

 

Just remove it. You dont need it as you already have one.

 

cool, just want to make sure.....

 

If. Idk though, it might be easier to take the one off your car and put the new one up. That was kind of a PITA to install.
