Titanium Dump/extension Pipes

[Nismo_Boy]

This is a long shot, but does anyone (Australia/Japan/America/UK) make Titanium rb26 dump/extension pipes? Or is this going to be a local custom job to suit my needs?

Thanks

Had one sold one...

You should be able to get one made up, wont be cheap though.

Did you have "dump" pipes or "front" pipes... I'm after just the dump pipes, turbo's to front pipe section.

What brand did you have?

Thanks

why do you want titanium specifically? theres a massive shortage of it world wide and your gonna have alot of trouble finding any, and if you do, better lube up before you ask the price

Specifically no reason other then because I’d like a complete Ti system turbo’s to tip.

But this thread is on who makes a set not me justifying expensive parts that serve very little purpose on anything other then race cars. I wasn’t aware there was a shortage however, thanks for the heads up

I had dump and front pipe, sold them on ebay a few years back now...No markings so I couldn't tell you who made them.

The rest of the system was Nismo so they might have come from there.

They sold for $200 @ auction and didn't get much interest at the time

Talk about light weight, I should have hung onto them. Sorry i'm not much help.

I can weld Titanium but I don't know why you'd bother with a system like that Josh. Titanium does not last very long at all. Yes it is light but only because it is spun so thin. Extremely short service life

$200!!

I would have paid double! Never the less, thanks madbung. I’ll keep googling away to see if I can turn up any off the shelf dump pipes knowing someone has had a set now.

You can? That gives me a new potential avenue now. But yeah no real reason behind my madness other then wanting a full Ti system, plus I like the idea they weigh very little and in my mind I believe Ti systems have a distinctive (better) note over stainless
