So the big question, whats it worth, may polish it to get more attention.

Was hoping to buy a cheap NC30 and was going to restore it but missed out by about an hour, am gutted so think this is going as soon as poss now.

Any takers?
Thanks
Tom

One of these turned up on here recently and I also have one with the same welds and heel plate etc and I was assured at the time of asking on the old site that its a yamamoto although no one seems to be able to explain the welds and heel plate I think maybe some race team or other maybe got a job lot in and had them welded used them then sold on.I bought mine on ebay years ago and only cost about £40 and was advertised as a normal NC30 exhaust so I was pretty chuffed to find out it was all stainless and polishes up nicely :lol:

The only reason I would say it was not a Yamamoto is that the rear manifold plate - if you get me - is not the same as any Yamamoto I have seen.

The Y pieces do look similar though....hmm more and better pics I reckon!
