Had the ACT Induction kit fitted by Austec a few weeks back. I asked Tim Lamont if he could source me some yellow pipes to replace the black ones. Despite a few raised eyebrows (and probably the odd snigger), these turned up :)

Not a perfect match shade wise but, IMO, a must for fella yellas :cool:

So, are they a :thumbup: or a :nono:? Or should I be posting this in the Nova forum? :hehe:

Sorry for the poor quality, took the shots in the garage at night :boxedin:

I like those. If you don't mind me asking, how much were they? Or were they part of the act induction stuff?

Best to ask Tim, but I think they can be bought separately, but mine was an all in price so I dont know how much they would be on their own. I dont think they are huge money.

Probably available in other colours (just not as cool)

They look super!

Now all you need is yellow main air trunks from the front carbon-like airbox to the one on each bank

Oh and you can get a yellow air-con belt too

While you're at it, you should get some yellow tubes for the wiper jets!

Oh, dont forget, if you havent already done so, get the callipers painted yellow!

These are just a yellow version of our regular black pipes, the same price but extra 4 week wait, i did these for Nick because he'd had a tough year with his car and thought he might need cheering up

They do photograph better than the black ones
