How to Install an RX7 Exhaust

The Mazda RX7 exhaust may need to be replaced if you live in northern climates where road salt will eat away at the metal underneath the car or if you live near the ocean (where the moisture and salt in the air will do the same thing). The process for installing the RX7 exhaust is simple, though it is physically demanding. Once youve removed the exhaust, you need to know how to properly install a new one.

Instructions

1

Raise the RX 7 onto jack stands. Lift up on the front and rear jack points with a jack and place jack stands under the frame and lower the vehicle onto the stands.

2

Lay the new exhaust system on top of several jack stands so that the entire exhaust is raised off the ground and is oriented so that the catalytic converter is toward the front of the car and the muffler is toward the rear.

3

Slide the rubber fasteners on the exhaust system onto the factory exhaust hangers that are welded to the underside of the car.

4

Install the O2 sensors into the exhaust by threading them into the O2 holes clockwise using the O2 sensor installation/removal tool and a socket wrench.

5

Plug the electrical connectors from the factory wiring harness into the O2 sensor lead wires.

6

Place an exhaust gasket over the end of the exhaust piping that bolts to the manifold and secure the piping to the exhaust manifold on the engine with the factory mounting bolts.
