Had my water pipes off today to give them a wee clean up and look what I found.







Bloody rotten!!

Anyhow, will have to get replacements cos this one is beyond repair so who would be interested in a group buy for stainless steel water pipe kits from Act?

Price was £118 - 3 sets and above gets 10% OFF!

Also asked about the silicone hoses kits while I was on the phone

Price was £139.50 OR £158(inc.hoseclips) - 3 sets and above gets 10% OFF!

Anyone interested list in either listing bellow for S/S Pipes or Silicone hoses.

Seems like a not bad idea to me, they are 'working' items, not bling stuff. But when someone starts doing a group buy for a Boot spolier or Lexus style rear lights, then I know it's time to think about selling the cerb!

You'd imagine so... that pipe looks like a "plant" if ever I saw one. rofl I'd have thought you'd have no water in the cooling system at all if you had a pipe like that on your car!

The pipe/ hose kit seem worthwhile products though. The Group Buy thing works fine in this context, but when you get a "bedroom" tuner punting stuff cheaper than the big boys simply because he has no overheads, that can only be bad news in the long term... the "real" tuners need to make a profit to stay in business!

Just for the record, ACT has no involvement in this, appart from offering Billy a discount if he wants 3 sets

Come one guys less of the trash talk. Why are people doubting my in tensions? I need a set of pipes and the best way to get them cheaper is to buy in bulkidea! what a concept that is

This is something that is carried out all the time on various other forums and it works!

Lets all be part of this buying cooperative and save some cashshout

Fitted these to my car last year, considering the under bonnet temps on the Cerb and the need for optimum cooling efficiency, these are worth every penny in my book.

No sorry, best I can do is www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?t=366227&f=6&h=0 on R8nan's thread you can see the silicone hoses, but not the s/steel pipes.

Right so delivery is a flat rate £8.81 with DHL up to 10Kg so with VAT included...

Stainless steel water pipe kits -
Total price was £147.46
With discount - Price is now £133.59

Silicone hoses kits -
Total price was £172.72 or £194.46(inc.hoseclips)
With discount - Prices are £156.33 or £175.89


If you order both together then you only pay postage once so you can take £8.81 off the total!

I found that the pipes on my car had been powder coated and that had started to flake off which after sand blasting revealed that one of my pipes was rotten big time!

Note to all. Clean and paint your pipes before its to late! Or get in this group buy
