Default Classic exhausts onto Blobeyes

hi all
Just wondering if a catback system from a Classic can fit on to a Blobeye.
I have 99 Turbo 2000 and would like the ninja I or II backbox with a cat back midsection, but i will/maybe be getting a WRX blob in 6 months time and was hoping to change the system over.
My feeling is that the hangers will be in different places......

And yes i know it would be better to wait but i am to damn impatient!!

Simple answer is no, there is a reason you get exhausts for new age and classics and not just one type

Anything is possible, its just not a DIY 'on the drive' job with a regular toolkit.
If you have access to a PipeBender/Welder, or on good terms with an exhaust fabrication shop, then it would be possible at much lower cost than a new system.

As far as I'm aware if it's a full system from turbo back it doesn't matter if it's going on a classic or a newage, just the hanger on the back needs redone. System I have got on my type r is the same one as on the blobeye I used to have
