Hi all,

Just interested to know how much a custom 3 1/2 inch dump stainless steel on a stock manifold with a gt3076 should cost? So far been quoted $350, $550 and $800

so im wondering if the more expensive ones are any better or they're just over charging.

also if anyone knows a good fabrication workshop in brisbane ..

thanks

$800 for a dump pipe is rediculas, tell them to get f**ked.

May I ask what shops gave you what prices?

Quickspool said $350, Mazspeed was $750 i think cant remember now might of been $550, and EFI performance have said $900 for a himount and a bit cheaper for low mount,

Stainless will look pretty for about 2 days. Or 1 tuning session.

I would use mild steel and ceramic coat it or heat wrap it.

ah ok, my catback is stainless and years old, still looks ok,

but could do what you say because ill probably ceramic coat it eventually anyway, but what do you think it should cost??

My dump pipe cost me 30 bucks x1 mantel bent 3 inch ms that is super overpriced

Mantel bent?

A good quality MS custom dump mandrel bent will cost more than $30 to get a shop to do it

1x 3.5 inch bend in stainless should only cost 30 or so bucks (you might need 2), I've just done a 3-3.5 inch dump in stainless for a mate and it cost $150 all up including flanges, extra bends with ext gate plumb back, , expander and straight pipe. I backpurge all stainless exhaust welding to help with longevity, happy to help you out if you want

sounds good, do you have any pics of it,

id be happy to pay you more than that for a quality dump pipe.:thumbsup:

Did have a photo somewhere of that one but must have deleted it. Here's a pic of one I did for a wrx couple of years ago (external gate, a little more involved), i'll be happy to knock something up to suit your budget- if you're keen, swing me a pm

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
