iirc, it sat straight out, the sr had a mk2 back bumper, iam pretty sure its for a gsi due to the angle it sat at.

Looks slightly different than my gsi backbox. Same shape but the pipe looks a bit longer or maybe thinner.
looks like a box for a larger car imo, the nova backbox is also angled up more at entry, I'd get someone to check epc on it for the part number, if it is for a nova it's a saloon box for sure!
Yes it for a Mk2 GSi
From EPC
E16SE/C16SE
Chassis Number M4000001 onwards
Silencer, assy, rear and tailpipe ( Aftermarket Spec)
This means is a cheaper version on the OE exhaust so may look slighty different
Cheers

if your looking for a GTE (MK1) tail pipe i might be able to get hold of one, GM part, just waiting for a cost price but it is listed as an Aftermarket unit so same applies as i've said in the last post
Cheers

Interesting, pipe looks way too long for a hatch lol Maybe the box is a tad shorter.
