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...
Come on one some one cough up lol
his work looks good, get on it people
I've got a standard one here if thats any good ?
Does it have to be an enlarged downpipe ? Or is standard ok ?
i recently got a standard down pipe from caymanr26 for my car but at the very second i dont need it so i will send if need be?pm me if you want it...its still sitting in box.aslong as i get it back im not fussed
Can help, if u get stuck.
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 ..
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.
Thanks for your replies folksAndy 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
I would be intrested in one.
What happened to the ones being made by that other member on here?
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....
How do you mean byDidn't fit?Originally Posted by Penfold aka The Dealer
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.
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.
