Hey guys, desperately searching for a set of Tomei RB26DETT dump pipes for my 1990 Skyline GT-R.   I've had my order placed with Tomei since October 2018 and Tomei will not give me an ETA and I'm getting tired of waiting for them to restock the parts again.  I'm located in the USA and willing to pay for shipping.  No dealer/vendor in the USA has any in stock, and been reaching out to dealers/vendors in Australia and New Zealand with no luck of anyone actually having a set for sale.  Tomei Japan is also on back order.  I want to keep it Tomei if possible since I have the Tomei cast manifolds, Tomei MX7655 turbos, Tomei titanium front pipe and test pipe.  The Tomei dumps are 70mm exit and the titanium front pipe entry is 70mm.  Only other brand with 70mm exit dumps is Mine's,  but with a 75 day lead time since they are made to order, and more expensive.  One of my factory cast iron dumps is cracked, hence why I'm desperately searching for a new set.  May settle for a lightly used set if not badly corroded/rusted/dented/damaged.

Still looking for these parts. If you are not willing to ship then don't bother wasting my time. I've had 5 forum members tell me they had them for sale but refused to ship even though I am paying for shipping costs.

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
