silentjeff Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Hello,I'm posting on behalf of my father-in-law, whom has just bought a MK2 Vitesse.He's got a SS back box on the car, and was looking for a new front pipe, we found one on eBay, but when it arrived today he found it's a short pipe, not the long pipe he was expecting.Looking around it appears the MK2 had a two part system, and the MK1 and GT6 had three part systems.Are we right in thinking this? And is it easy to get a joining centre pipe, or get one made? Or should he ask for the seller for a refund, and return the pipe? The seller had it advertised as a MK2 downpipe. Would the price of a SS long pipe front section cost less than getting a centre pipe made up?Sorry guys, lots of questions, I'm lost on classic stuff, hope you can help, thanks, Jeff.

Clive Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 You and the seller are both right :-/! It seems most (all??) of the stainless systems for the mk2 vitesse are 3 piece systems, I guess so the frontpipe is common to both GT6 and vitesse. I suspect you can get hold of a stainless middle section from suppliers like canleys easily, but doubt you can get the long front pipe at all.CheersClive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentjeff Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 Thanks Clive,I had a feeling most owners would have the aftermarket three piece SS sports systems I've seen advertised. I know I would ;D I'll pass the advice on to my father-in-law.Cheers, Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
