ok guys, today i went down to a new shop today i met the owner a few weeks ago, hes like 22 years old. the shop is mostly a show car shop. but the guy knows his stuff when it comes to turbos welding and custom work, so i went in with two bends of pipe and asked him to make me a hot pipe. well 3 hrs and very little money later i have a very nice hot pipe that once i paint or powder coat will look very professional. ill post some pics soon of the unfinished pipe and the finished painted and fittted pipe so youll know what they look like.. but i want to know who all would be interested in a hot pipe for the CA?

and other parts

02 housing , these are often over looked in the nissan swap community but they can greatly increase flow of your exhaust and to get one for an Sr that wont even fit our cars is 250$ we should be starting on these within the month. whos interested?

downpipes made for the CA test pipes cold pipe kits for FMIC setups turbo manifolds price from 300-1000$ down pipes with an intergrated O2 housing (very nice pipes)

also we are goin to try and make up some fiberglass sunroof plates to replace the sunroof when you feel like having a hard top look

keep the ideas flowing !

The custom shop near me, has manifold prices that range like that. BIG diffrence between a 300 log style and 1000 tubular style/mandrel bends.

o2 housing and o2 housing downpipe combos would be great!Cause i don't wanna go out and buy high $ SR stuff just to find out it won't work on the CA.I hope u do international shipping when the o2 housings are ready.

I emailed you about the downpipe, as long as its a decent size (say, 60mm or larger) and you aren't wanting more than 200 each for it I think I'd buy one.

seeing as how you have to get/modify a downpipe when you install a CA - that should probably be a priority part for you to $ell. someone selling downpipes would just make stuff that much easier for us people on the install-fence.
