Hi guys, I had a small accident where the car bottomed out and dented the middle pipe that joins the cat and the muffler. Its a genuine trust 90mm titanium exhaust and the pipe is just straight with one slight bend.

I was wondering whether this could either be repaired or if someone could refabricate an identical pipe. Its 90mm titanium pipe which goes from the cat to the muffler of my R34 GTR. I can post pics if required. Anybody know where I can get this done??? I'd like it refabricated in titanium if possible...

Nope, there's nothing listed on their site. I had a good search and rang around a few suppliers over here and hit a wall. I can import 3 inch Ti tube from the US, minimum order was 30m, 12k delivered. Getting flat sheet rolled was the other option, but have you seen the price Airport metals wants for a small sheet?

AM Performance here in SA have Ti tube in stock in various diameters.. limited stock atm and more coming in.

problem is it may not match your current wall thickness. AM can carry out the repair if you cant find anyone locally but you'd need to send the damagedsection to him.

I'm happy to send the damaged section to AM as the titanium is light as, whole exhaust is only 6kg so can't see this pipe being more than 2kg as most of the weight would be with the muffler. They seem quite expensive but you get what you pay for and I'm cheaping out on an R34 GTR...

Anyone got a contact # and or email for them???

    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
    • BTW, the reason I came in here to "update" this list was that the Garrett G Series II range have been released and I've updated the list with their flow details if you're curious to check how they fit with previous Garretts and other brands The G-Series II G35 990 looks like a banger...
    • Hi all, I thought I'd put one of these references in here before but it seems I haven't - not sure how many people are actually using this place still but I feel like there are guys lurking about who might find this reference useful or interesting.  A lot of the time people don't catch key details or even fully understand how compressor maps work - or don't even look at them and just go from heresay about deciding how different turbos may compare, but I've been putting together this table over the years as a quick reference to get a gauge of how certain compressors compare to cut down the time that can be wasted looking around aimlessly. * This relates purely to compressor flow, so won't necessarily reflect the outright capabilities of these turbos as the power potential also comes down to the turbine side.  If you understand this, you should be able to use this 😃 * The inducer and exducer size listed are the mm of just the compressor wheel * The values under the "psi" headings are "lb/min airflow" and reflect the maximum airflow that compressor supports before it's efficiency dips under 65%, or it reaches it's maximum speed - whichever comes first. Any questions, or requests for other turbos which the compressor map is available for then let me know 🙂
    • And what you pay for a pack of 8 bolts and nuts at Bunnings, will land me 200 of the same nuts and bolts from a fastener shop.   M12 * 1.25 IS a standard. It's not like ordering M12x1.25 and hoping the thread pitch is right. Unlike ordering an ounce, will get you 4 different amounts depending on which ounce someone takes it to be. Your issue is a supply issue.
