Dandy Exhaust. I got quoted $300 for Dump Pipe


Recommended Posts

high? You get your ass under that and do the work

think about it this way

1 - they have to wait for the car too cool down, taking workshop space

2 - someone has to spend at LEAST an hour too 2 hours making it

3 - its a business and they have to make a profit

$300 is cheap

Why not get a combo 3" dump/front pipe from batmbl for $250 all up? Its all about numbers, its very expensive to make a one off exhaust system, why not get one thats already made? Or do you have an aftermarket turbo?

:werd:

this man speaks the truth

:rofl:

is that inclusive of installation or not?

cause from what i can tell ash it isnt stated... so chill :)

look on ebay... my mate just got a stainless one for 180 and a stainless manifold for 280... YAY EBAY!

that's including installation, yes. providing they dont run into problems or anything.

eg. drill out the bolts or watever coz of rust.

RHETT

i dont have aftermarket turbo. i already have front pipe, its just the dump pipe im getting done.

Thanks for your input guys. Greatly Appreciated.

i agree...try doing it on a 40 degree day sweating your aggots out snaping off exhuast studs and nuts with weld spatter going all over you.....people go out on the turps for a night and torch a few hundred buck trying to pick up women...then question spending it on there cars when someone wants to get paid for the time they spent working on it...i am with ash

a mate of mine at work is looking to do some mods to his 94 r33 turbo.. it has a cat back jasma exhaust runing standard cooler and standard boost..

I suggested he get a dump/front pipe and hi flow cat and boost it too 11-12psi using bleeder valve and have the work done by a reputable tuner...ie racepace...

Change of subject a bit but how much all up would we be expecting to pay for all of this work??

$500-$600??

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
