sz pipes???

[KA24JEF]

so i am thinking of buying the sz test pipes , and i was wondering if any one has them or is thay now anything good??? or bad??? like fitment probs things like that??

[robomatic12]

I do not own SZ, but I know people who do. In the Z world it seems you get what you pay for; In the case of SZ this means quality and great fitment, everyone seems to be happy with the pieces that come from them. You will be a happy camper!

I work on Z's along with owning one that has the 3" pipes from SZ.
SZ has the best fitment and the highest price..
Coz "ConceptZperformance.com does a great job of offering quality parts with options for parts that cost less
I would buy from Coz just as fast as SZ and if price was the issue I would go with who had the best price.
BTY, Coz gets the same supplier to build his parts as SZ in alot of cases just another badge on it.

Yeah... not to start s***, but you got any proof on that? Or just what Coz told you?

The SZ everything fits great. I have the 4 bolt 3" expansions to the 3"->2.5" test pipes and the fit was great. Beautiful welds and high quality materials, can't really ask for more.

awsome that made this choice really ez for me, ton hear such great reviews and i dont find that thir price is all that steep anyway, in fact i felt as tho i was getting a really good, hints why i asked the question in the first place lol

Have a set on the car, split DP's to 2.5" testpipes. Fitment you cannot beat. Have 5-bolt expansion DP's and 3" to 2.5" setting in the basement. If anything like the other will fit perfectly. Hold off till Monday, may have a Valentine Day special.

Coz.. good prices and fast email response, but a questionable businessman. on my last order from him, i ordered a Kevlar SS DXD clutch... installed it and the Clutch had some issues, had a next to impossible time to get it in gear, even after an hour of clutch adjustment. got to the bottom of it, and it turned out that he pieced a clutch and PP from 2 different southbend units together and sold them to me as a Kevlar SS. had to re-install it, and it was a real pain in the a** for everyone involved. this was enough for me to never deal with him again.

^Although a s*** situation, but how do you know Coz pieced it together?

[Z31toZ32]

yeah it was crappy. i was at brett rameys with joe allison, who represents southbend dxd clutches in ohio. i told him about the clutch and he became suspicious because there were no reported kevlar ss's sold in the region, even though i had one in front of me. he looked into it and got into it with coz on the phone, and confirmed that he had in fact sold me a kevlar ss as 2 other units pieced together.

Great opinions all around, so I thought i would chime in. If I had the deep pockets, I would do it all the same way again. I chose knockoff SS 3.0 DP's and 3-2.5 TPs at a reasonable price so I could apply leftover resources elsewhere. I figured it was only stainless steel and if it didn't fit right I could send it back. How much better can hot air escape anyway? I have to agree though, after seeing the SZ pipes up close they [look] far better inside and out compared to the much reduced knockoffs I have. Later, I chose to hide the workmanship by wrapping my DPs. See below my budget SS 3.0 SuperSplit DPs & 3-2.5 TPs. Look at the welding on the inside. It's fair not superb.

^That sucks that there's surface rust in the pipe already.

It's because they're not stainless steel. They're electroplated mild steel.
