Downpipe donation for group buy
Anybody have a spare downpipe kicking around? my brother inlaw of RnD Motorsport in York is willing to make up a batch of enlarged all in one downpipes, big jim style..
I have a spare turbo elbow, but no spare downpipe!
here is an example of his work, he has recently built a rear engined astra using a vectra vxr lump, he can make anything from efi manifolds to custom pipe work.
anyway, hopefully il have an example to pass round at ND if somebody can help out with a downpipe... :D

Can help, if u get stuck.
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
Get back in teh queue you lot.
I am often over in wakfield so can drop off if needed.
I might have a request of my own involving a megane and a exhaust ..
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
I expect it needs to be the big Jim or Boris super sized pipe so he can take measurements from it and make a jig. Otherwise he has to guess and won't know what it's going to rub on, water pipes, etc.
Jim made one with a 5GTT to hand so as to get the position of it exact. I expect Boris also.
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
Thanks for your replies folks :D Andy has offered to drop one at mine or i can call to his for it, so long as he has kettle on and some snap in oven, my brother inlaw will use my GT to make sure its a good fit :)
will keep everybody posted :agree:
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy

Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
What happened to the ones being made by that other member on here?
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
There is issues...
Don't think anyone actually has one that works or even received one... Some people got a refund, unsure if anyone is still waiting or what....

Didn't fit?
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
Jim has a jig and, IIRC, he'd evolved to making them from two main pieces of pipe plus laser cut flanges. I really don't know why he didn't want to make any more.
Re: Downpipe donation for group buy
I've got a one piece BMS downpipe, will dig it out tomorrow and take a picture of it. If it is what your after then i can loan for a month or two.
