Exhaust Manifold

[veecee]

/back to topic


You can fit a branch-type manifold, had good feedback on that.

yeah vlade was real successful with that! i would only recommend the big brand types! or at least a thorough check on the inside before fitting it!

there are other problems - like having to move ABS unit, and change flanges on exhausts.

what about other log types - heard from someone up here that they made custom. i think the guy was referring to cast manifolds!??!

and this is what i meant about widow's spandex chick blowing a gasket.

i dont discriminate againsts whatever gets you to the point that you take a home made rubber stamp and drive it up a poor moles ass while screaming "BARNEY IS A DINOSAUR...", but the sites i visit have GIRLS doing that, NOT GUYS!!!???

My manifold was also leaking so i took it to my mac and he took it off and checked that it wasn't cracked, but all 4 gaskets were blown. So he skimmed the manifold and replaced gaskets!

Now its running super again

Cheetah Exhaust in Rosslyn has got the propper oven to heat it and then weld it. If it is not done properly it will crack again. Cracking is normally caused by other things such as running lean on 1 or more cylinders.... They charged me R700 too fix. Since replaced with a stainless, but then you have heat problems again...

Is that Zim dollars??

Gary, do you know of a place in Durban where I may be able to buy some decent exhaust manifold gaskets for my car (CA18DET)? I think that the ones that I installed are the ones that don't work well. Less than 5000km and they're blown. Thanks in advance.

[widowmaker]

hey deena! long time!

how is the durbs chapter doing? any more additions, or are there only two sxs in that small town of yours?

[Gary57]

Hi Deen yeah man I can get you some no problem. I think I paid R45 of mine and they still working fine, no problems. Give me a call and I will what I can organise for you. Did that guy with the scrap sx ever get back to you, the one we met out at gateway??

[Deens]

Thanks buddy, will call you. The Wrankler with the spares went underground, deep, deep, deep. Hey Windows...maybe two sx's is two, too many for this small town buddy. Actually there are a few running around...maybe there are others but they are just resting somewhere. You know what it's like with with these babies, they run well, then they want to rest. I have just come back from a 4 week stint up in darkest Africa, hence the abscence. The car rested all this while. She started first time and then somewhere on the highway the exh. manifold gaskets said "whoa mamma, too much pressure".

[widowmaker]

hehehe, she's been partay'ing in your absence dude! (picking up girly beemers) we all like a bit of rest after a party - why don't we grant our four wheelers the same courtesy? spoil her rotten! pm me your PO box so i can send you summ sx-club business cards (sorry gurly69, you too pleez) to stuff into unsuspecting sx owners wipers

in the immortal words of the bloodhound gang : "a lapdance is so much better when the stripper is crying"

how hard is it to take the manifold off?

I recently also srpung a leak. Not quite sure if it's against the head or where the turbo and manifold meet. or between the exhaust and the turbo side.
