4g exhaust centre section JDM

Post by **vanzep** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 8:02 pm

Im in need of a oem centre section for my 94 BB4 4th gen.Needs to be JDM pipe. UKDM is no good as i found out today.

Brand new or good 2nd hand.

Found my old invoice from Honda dated June 2006
Pipe B part number 18220SS0J42
so the part only lasted 6 years

Whats wrong with the section I gave you? Thats JDM? Or thats what I was told when I bought it.

hmm pretty sure its not jdm as its about 2 inches shorter and slightly smaller diameter pipe as well also silencer section is about half the size of the jdm one.
its still got some of the part number on a label on it so should be able to identify.
reall pity it didnt fit as its in very good condition

Honda want £241 or something for the correct centre section which is a massive £150 more than what i paid in 2006.

yup the part that doesnt fit is HA244 - which is listed as a part for 2.3 will prob do a 2L as well.
looks to be the same as this

Nick, you running a JDM Decat? Couldn't you simply add a UK decat to the mix here and you're sorted no? £35 on the bay?

maybe worth going back to the seller and seeing if he can exchange the part

- Honda seemed to have hiked the price way up on the jdm section - i just cant justify £241 for one from Honda - hopefully the one off Michaels lude will do tho

I had thought about that but pipe diameter looks smaller tho - think its 2" and i need 2.25" and id also need to slot one of the holes in the decat to get it to mate up with flange on the downpipe.
Its a good suggestion but not really the best option.

I got it off Mr Whizee two years ago

Waaaaaaa? I bought a whole OEM CAT-back for my 99+ 5G for £305 (inc the 2 x chrome finishing tips at £28 each)
