E30 Zone

Guys, how much is a full E30 BTB S50 exhaust that has done about 200 miles untill bexley blew up the engine. (thats for another thread.)

Manifold, X pipe, middle and back box.

i will get up pictures later on for the system.

Is it to fit an S50`d E30? Ill be needing to sort an exhaust for mine soon so id value it around £100

As above.. Full e30 setup?

It's something daft like 2.5k new now..

£2.5k, they really know how to burgle. What the hell are these systems made from, Frank Sytner's foreskin with kevlar?

They just dont want people to buy them, obviously

sorry guys, title edited to inc e30. basicaly he needs to sale it to help fund instal for a newer heart.

Get ya cheque book out Matt

I bought a second hand BTB e30 s50 mani and x pipe last year for £900..
If he wants it sold Jhonno reckons he knows a few people gagging for one and will pay good money

I'd guess easily £2k if it's as new as described. They're not available on the seconhand market, and they are what they are. So if someone wants it they'll have to pay for it!

how can they justify that kind of price for them?

last full exhaust that we built at tt was a full bespoke job for a bmw 2.0 I6 (not an m20 old pre war one) fitted into a chain gang frazer nash.

whole thing was a one off and hand built all the way to the rear. i dont remember the actual figure and it wouldnt be fair to the owner to give it away but i know it was far less than that.

all in high grade stainless and polished after construction and assembly.

I was quoted £1800 just to modify my existing manifolds and provide an x pipe!

Not sure.. Modifying the original manifold requires specialist processes, BUT as for the rest.. Not a clue. I went to Zero and got a superb 2x2.25" manifold back system made for £600

guys here is the pictures in no order, of before it went to BTB and after it came back, it also has £150 worth of heatwrap, basicaly how it looks in those pictures is how it will be sold.

Pardon my ignorance,
What's the idea behind the X pipe?

balances the pulsations in the exhaust and can be used to increase scavenging.

It's a lovely piece of kit but the cost is total madness.

That being said it won't affect it's second hand value. If the condition is how it's described and looks, I would take a penny under £1800 for it. It will move at that too I reckon.

It's worth it!
