Just wondering wether anyone knows what diameter the pipe is (where it meets the cat)

and what the hole centres are for the bolts on the extractors?

Just trying to save some time as I would like to get the gasket before pulling the extractors off

my extractors are probably only two or three years old and one or two of the welds has cracked!

Any info much appreciated.

Regards,

Ryan.

For future reference 2.5 inch!

Pics of the Crack not Hole!

It goes 90% of the way round on one of the collectors

They were 4495's I'd imagine 2 years old?

exactly - weld it - and brace the two pipes to each other to stop them doing it again.

I ended up rewelding them pain in the ass though

I will have to cut them up in the near future and fix it properly though

the crack went right round the collector so down the centre I had to weld up either side til I could join it

next time I'll have to cut the collector out and weld it from the inside

I did't brace it because I think it will crack again in time

I'll build a new exhaust for it in the future with a better flex join might make some nice S/S headers at the same time!

Would have thought they lasted longer than what they did though

probably just 12 months old!

have you thought about using steam pipe and ceramic coating them? should be cheaper than SS and won't be as prone to cracking IMO
