KA-T downpipe? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have a circuit sports down pipe like the one pictured below from my old sr20det setup. I keep hearing something about sr downpipes not working on ka-t set-ups. Im using a bottom mount t-2 flange manni and a 2871r turbo. I just wanted to make sure that this downpipe would fit. This is on an s14 btw... not sure if that matters.

i use a stock sr elbow and downpipe for my bottom mount kat t25 setup off a ebay manifold
I dont have a problem so i dont see why an after market one would be an issue as well

^ok, common sense told me that this would work, but i guess some ppl were saying that it wouldn't so i just wanted to be sure. Thanks!

i have a ebay elbow and titan motor sport SR downpipe and i dont really have any clearance issues, it just sits like snug with the bottom of the car. it might tap the bottom ocasionally but thats it

i have an ebay manifold with a 2871 nad ebay elbow with sr downpipe i had to hammer in the DP a little where it was vibrating against the floor.

Okay to add to this question... is anyone using nismo mounts while saying their downpipe does/does not fit? i know using a nismo mount compared to a stock 20 year old one will bring the engine up in height a bit
