2.5" Dump pipe for 4JB1T

[geeves]

I registered to have a look at items I have recently bought. They are a little cheaper than Hut city autoparts with currency conversion but not the freight. For the average ball joints etc the answer is local but for someone without a local autoparts store that can be bothered looking isuzu parts up ie Queensland it could be worthwhile
Will look that part up later

$77 plus $50 freight both US$ and thats not the one your looking for
I would be trying Motex or Wn Van and Ute as they may of had a vehicle with a blown engine

Seems like a good price if its new- Ive been informed that my second hand 4jg2 oil filter assembly is in the post so should turn up tomorrow or thursday

new but non genuine. Might not be an issue.

What did you use to plug the holes on the downpipe?

[turnturn]

I just machined up a plug that utilised the existing mounting threads. You can sort of see it in the top photo in my post above.

I'm thinking of removing the QWS butterfly from my dump pipe, just wondering how much work is involved?

Failed a wof on my Flexible Joint, The rear section of my exhaust is already 2.5" so I'm going to get him to replace the rest with 2.5", up to the down pipe

I guess I'll have to unbolt the manifold from the block and maybe unbolt the turbo?

Then once I've got it out grind/unbolt/smash the butterfly valve out and fill the holes left behind?

Just wondering if anyone here has done it and has any advice or can see something I'm missing something out?

Cheers in advance

Some people have just undone the bolt removed the flap and put the bolt back but a cleaner way is to take it out and weld up the 2 holes

I Just used welsh plugs to fill the holes on my 4jb1

Cheers guys, are welch plugs easy to use?
I dont know if my welding is up to the job.
I was originally thinking maybe I could tap in some bolts?
