Wtb 240Z Two Port Flange Downpipe Or Flange

[Andrew_L26]

Hi all, I'm after a flange that would suit the n36 exhaust manifold downpipe. 

Should look something like this:

 

 

Thanks!

 

Andrew

 

*EDIT** I am after the actual downpipe and or flange, I have sourced a gasket from an autoparts store

Go to your local exhaust shop & buy one off the shelf.

I've been to around 6 exhaust shops and none of them have them or anything that would work, I've looked at getting one made and they are around $70 by my local fabrication shop.

Hey mate I have 1 but your local auto parts shop should be able to get them in

Or fit extractors.

Yeah I'd be interested as I've asked and they want around 350 for the whole downpipe etc.

The car did have extractors which were cracked and to be honest, completely stuffed. I spent alot of time welding them up and ended up warping them. I would get another set however they are quite pricy for a 18 year old on a budget and I managed to get a N36 exhaust manifold off another member for nothing! The main reason for not shelling out for extractors is that as I have an L28 with a P90 head I intend on going cho-cho once I'm off my P-plates and have more experience driving. I'll probably only end up having a fairly low pressure turbo running just a bit more boost then the stock L28ET.

 

Anyway, I'll PM you Mr Blu

 

Thanks all! the list for a RWC is now down to this exhaust and waiting for my front caliper seals to get here!

This is the sorta thing I'm after, any length as long as there is a reasonable amount of space to weld the rest of the exhaust on (Not the whole exhaust but just the part that goes into the manifold)

Hi Mate

 

The piece of pipe you chasing is called the Engine Pipe.

 

Must say I am more than a little suprised that you are having trouble finding a new flange plate, it is a reasonably common, albeit older, shape and size. Are you trying custom exhaust guys or just the typical franchise exhaust shops ?

I don't think Andrew was clear enough with his terminology. I think he is looking for the actual downpipe not a gasket. I could look into making the flange for you but it will be around the $50-$70 mark

I've tried about two custom exhaust shops and 3 or four normal exhaust shops such as Mr muffler etc and the franchise say the same thing, "We can order in an engine pipe for you, I'll just look it up' ....*types on computer* 'pwho they're about 350 bucks mate, I'd look at getting one from pick a part " and the custom exhaust shops say "ah it's off a datsun no? haven't seen one in quite a few years. Unfortunately I can't really help you, have you tried wreckers such as pick a part"

 

And no wreckers have any Dattos, just one completely gutted 160 Patrol.

That's what my local engineering place quoted me, would you be willing to part with that beautiful downpipe/engine pipe as it is EXACTLY what I need, even down to that nice bend towards the bottom.

 

Thanks for clearing that all up for me Blu

[blu260z]

I will pm you Andrew I am sure we could sort something out

Sorry sorry I mis-read. Do the beans go in the L28, kinda like E85??

Oh my god, this is gold! xD

Thank you kind sir. Now go buy extractors, because they come up for like $100.

"1x extractors 6-2-1 (can sell with exhaust or by them self) $400"

and I'm a pleb 18 year old who is too poor to spend money on extractors, if I find a cheap set I'll get them but until then Mr Blu has me covered

[d3c0y]

Probably be negotiable if you show him you can buy brand new ones for $300...

[dat2kman]

Got one here, have to cut it ff the whole system, can pack and pist.

It runs into a 2 & 1/4" pipe

Let me knw what length you want, go longer, and jst trim it back, so it nicely mates to your remaining system.

I've found one in my clutter as well Andrew - you can have it if you pick it up.
