    Defender TD5 De-Cat pipe. How much and where from?

    Hi Guys,
    When I (and my 110) was in the UK I removed the front exhaust section (with the CAT in) and replaced with a straight through one. I was told that the car wouldnt be allowed into Australia in that configuration and so put the CAT back on, stupidly, I didnt bring the de-cat'd front pip with me.

    So, where could I get one from and roughly how much are they?

    Thanks
    Jon
    Regards,
    Jon

    Hi Yorkshire_Jon,

    I haven’t been able to find a supplier in Aus, was thinking of just having one made up at an exhaust shop.

    I recently ordered some bits from Bell Auto Services in the UK, only took 5 days to arrive.

    I know that do have DeCat pipes, Maybe we could get 2 ( 1 for your TD5 and 1 for my PUMA) and go halves in the freight ??

    Your thoughts ?

    I think RovaCraft sell them, I know they sell the pipe to remove the centre muffler. I would give them a try.

    Thanks - I hadnt intended buying one just yet / for a little while - I set off on my Canning Stock Route Trip next week so I reckon it'll be September before I can do anything. I dont want to touch the car now, she's all ready for the off!

    How much is Pete (Bell Autos) selling them for now? I know Pete well from when I lived in the UK, thats where my last one came from!

    $365 for a local one sounds expensive to me. I think my last one was about 80GBP. Even allowing for a couple of years inflation and courier costs, would be cheaper than $365.
    Regards,
    Jon

    Just a thought... Would a TD5 De-CAT pipe fit in a suitcase, or be allowed on a plane if strapped to the outside of a suitcase?

    I have a mate arriving from the UK on Monday!!
    Regards,

    They are about 50-60 quid from the UK... its just the freight that will mess it up.. well the TD5's are anyway.. you could also looked for a pre eu3 downpipe from an early td5, not sure if the disco and deefer are the same tho?
