It's not custom, but you asked for FMIC piping pics and I have some. This is the Greddy V-SPL FMIC kit:http://members.sndi.net/[email protected]/P ... C00058.JPG

if you already have the intercooler and only need the pipes... you can buy a brand new cold pipe and hot pipe for around 150-160

do you have the greddy intake manifold on your sr?...

The Greddy Kit only includes the cold pipe(s) (see the last pic), the IC core, and the piping on the hot side that runs up to the hole where the air filter box was. From there you have to get your own "hotpipe" to connect that to the turbo compressor.

Any of the companies that sell swaps should have them. Try Heavythrottle, Enjuku Racing, etc.

If you do have the Greddy Intake Manifold you can buy the Greddy Cold pipe from just about anywhere that sells SR20DET parts. The cold pipe itself is $79.99 but you can only use it if you have the intake manifold

Where would I be able to find the piping for that cheap? I was going to get custom intercooler piping but it would be more than what you posted for those brand new pipes. I'm using a stock SR s13 intake manifold. Thanks!

Well I talked to someone today about the SR piping kits and I hate to break it to you but they go for around $500 and they are meant for the stock Side mount intercooler not the front mount that you have.You are better off getting a new intercooler for around $700 or making/buying the pipes off somebody. Some people from http://www.nissantuners.com are making the pipes and selling them for about $135-$160 and the pipes are about 2.25 inches and it includes all the couplings and clamps. Good Luck trying to get some pipes.

I think there is a guy in the for sale forum selling the Greddy pipes from his kit. Basically he bought the kit and is keeping the core. Don't remember how much he wanted.

Just remember if you buy intercooler piping kits from like Greddy or HKS or any other company like that, the pipes are meant for the stock SR20DET side mount intercooler only and not for front mount intercoolers, but im sure if you ask for some in other SR forums someone will be able to tell you what bends you need or make the pipes for you.

I'm not sure if this will help you, but FYI:

you can buy Greddy's coldpipe for FMIC + greddy intake manifold setups for ~$75.



http://www.store.yahoo.com/pha....html

Ignore the price here. I forget where, but this pipe retails at ~$75 elsewhere.

You might find a solution to your custom setup if you make a lower section pipe and with a little cutting/welding.

And for the hotpipe? Greddy again:



I'm currently using THIS hotpipe with my Blitz LM FMIC setup. You're going to have to do some custom welding for a BOV flange somewhere. I did mine on the greddy hotpipe.

Just wanted to post an example. Here is a pic of a custom cold pipe in stainless from PDM racing. They also sell all kinds of manderal (sp?) stainless (granted alum probably has better cooling properties).



Here is the link to the stuff you can buy.http://www.pdm-racing.com/prod....html

nevermind guys i got this guy off ebay to end his auction early for a cold pipe off a HKS kit, since he upgraded to the greddy plenum.

i told him i would give him 100$ shipped if he would end it early and he did

is that a good deal i think it is?

here is the link to it http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...%3AIT

Thats probably the best deal you could get on a cold pipe to me the price is perfect.

Hey, I've noticed a lot of people referring to hot pipe, and I know its a stupid question but, what is that exactly?? I ordered a greddy V-spec intercooler kit. Comes with core and piping. Do I need any additional piping to install this or am I set? Thank you guys.

Yes even though you bought and intercooler kit it doesnt not include the hot pipe. The hot pipe just connects the intercooler to the turbo if you were wondering and they go for $79-$100 depending on where you get them

Did you ever find any other sources for intercooler pipes? I really need to replace the pipe on my greddy VSPL that goes from the hotpipe to the IC (lower hotpipe I guess you could call it).
