Hi guys,

I thought i would let you all know that there is a group buy about to happen right now on these test pipes, it's going through Charles Back who owns B2autodesigns in the states. This group buy is ONLY available if you are a member of our FB group - search "V35 Coupe Drivers" and request to be added.

The price of the ART pipes is $509.00 SHIPPED. This is a great deal considering the price of these alone is $585..

If you're interested, get on the fb group and express your interest, but be quick because the offer ends on September 30.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but do these delete the cats? Is there an option where I'm allowed to keep the cats? trying to keep my car 150% legal while giving it a nicer tone.

Good group buy, Seano! :)

Yes, these replace the cats. But you can have something like this which is essential an ART Pipe & TDX V1 Cat-Back System (discontinued): ART Pipe -> XYZ Pipe -> HFC Module -> you have to figure out yourself... I've been trying to explore this option to find a XYZ Pipe-Back System that will fit.

Yeah mate correct, test pipes are straight pipes that replace the cats. As 81gsky says, you can get around it but i can imagine it'd be a costly experience depending how it all fits in together. The MD shockwave tdx v2 paired with the ART pipes makes an insane sound. I will eventually get this setup, i love it!

Hi Jose,

Yes it did go through, Charles Back is running another group buy i beleive. Will check it up for you tonight and get back to you, i have a feeling it's on any MD product but let me check it out when i'm home to confirm.

Thank you much appreciated, quick question, I have a a injen CIA, motordyne spacer, exotic speed y pipe and a fujitsubo exhaust, do you thing the Art pipes will suite? and will I need a tune?

thanks again,

Jose

Just reminded me to check this up for you, sorry about that i'll look tonight.

Not sure if they will suit, they will delete your CATS and become illegal you might check a CEL if you do you'll need to clear the code. Not sure if ART pipes have anything to do with fuel consumption, but your AFR will be out a bit so a tune could do you good just depends how well it's done.

Where do you live?

I was organising one and posted it up on two threads, but hardly anyone expressed their interest to make up the numbers and make it worthwhile. So I gave up and then I saw this thread pop up, maybe Seano can organise one as I CBF'ed cause its frustrating... LOL!

I keep forgetting to ask Charles if he's doing any more group buys soon, i might hit him up and let him know there's a few guys interested in it. Just a show of hands, how many of you would be keen on the tdx v2 + test pipes or in fact any MD product at all?

i need to write myself a note or else i will forget to ask lol.

Im interested in the whole system. so basically tdx v2 + ART Pipes + 4.5" Tail pieces (want an XYZ pipe with resonator so its not too loud..does it work that way?? Also,have I missed out on anything? ). -- Might also want to get a price on the 5/16 plenum spacer (dont know what one to go for..thermal, copper or normal..whats the diff?)

Hi guys. Charles here. We are doing a group buy on the Motordyne XYZ pipe right now state side. To be completely honest it is hard to do a groub buy on the MD exhaust. I have tried a few times and failed reaching the number. I am here if you have any questions message me :)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
