I have one of these on my car and I got a lot more mid range power with the fitment of this dump pipe.

A very happy customer.

Did you get it from these same people?

Thanks for the reply. It was what I was hoping for!

Can't wait to sell my old project car so I can spend it all on my Stagea !

yep, from the same guys.

the design is inspired by the Dolphin dump from Japan.

And myself being a pain in the ass getting them to make things.

I know that one......I had a car booked in for next Tuesday and rang to confirm....they have kicked me to next month......guess who's not getting any work from me. :huh:

Westside? My mate Beau no longer works there. so i'd say 50-60% of work would be cut back hey.

back into a less stressful job with normal hours :)

Hey guys,

My mate was saying something about stainless steel dump pipes having a tendency for cracking because of the heat. Is there much truth to this?

Are the dump pipes that you guys got from westside all stainless? If so, I guess there ok then?

I think that may be a bit of an old wife's tale.

If it was the case, why are all these Japanese aftermarket companies selling stainless dump pipes?

Let alone the exhaust companies around the world...

btw, mild steel rusts.

So I suppose the only thing to do is have a dump made up out of titanium :)

I spoke to liverpool exhausts today after reading about a m35 axis on here (forgot the guys name) but he had a custom dump made up but mild steel with a ceramic coating. the price for this including a highflow cat was $1200 :ermm: W-T-H

I am just going to go for this ss dump. Can't wait for that and the fujubitso exhaust to arrive. Then I can get me a FMIC

You would also be waiting a long time for them to do anything as they are all talk and little action.

Before deciding to get the Stainless ones made by westside i went around to liverpool (i work a few doors away) to get a flange to make a dump they are ususlly pretty good to find hard to get flanges etc. but the quality of their flanges is rubbish so i took it to another place to be copied in stainless and lazer cut. turned out very very nice.

he tried to flog me one of them for a couple of hundred.. but he wouldnt tell me the price.. i asked a few times but he didnt say at all. i told him i didnt like his design as it wasnt a stock replacement. they clearly do it to make you get the full exhaust done there.

anyway his design was a split wastegate style and i wasnt after that either.. (since the turbo housing isnt really split either) and after having split on the gtr i wasnt keen for it again as a big bellmouth design is alot better.

the westside one will be alot better.. but i doubt there are any left at all now. last time i was down there was only 2..

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
