I am in the process of changing a turbo to elbo gasket on my s14a as the bolts seem to be popping out???? and was looking at buying a stainless elbo, downpipe (either standard or the twin job) and possibly some hoses seeing as i'm already making a simply job into a job which i feel may be more that my little mind is capable of.

Is there any advise you could give on what/how ect ect and will the pricing be any different than ordering them all seperate?!

Kind regards

Hi Benny,

Turbo elbow nuts working loose is probably due to the wrong type of locknut or just reusing old ones. We sell some M8 locknuts that should sort it out. :thumbs:

If you're doing the turbo to elbow gasket then it's no harder to do that than to replace the elbow and frontpipe at the same time really. Elbow and frontpipe will come out in one foul swoop, 2 bolts to the cat and the 5 elbow bolts on the turbo. Swap the lambdas and put it back together. :)

Pricing wise you'll be saving a few quid on postage to order everything you need together! :)
 
Cheers for the response Bon, sorry to have seemed impatient.

Got the parts now and want to fit them saturday although looking at the write up on the M8 locknuts am in two minds what to do.

The trick split front pipe looks awesome.

Cheers for the sticker and Wham bar, nice touch!
 
Them turbo heat sheilds were an arse to get off + The bracket to the rear of the front pipe didnt meet up with anything!

And after all that i need to replace the manifold gaskets.
