What condition the downpipes in and what price you after??
I am in a lot of need for these at the moment and you maybe my savour hahaha

If possible could also do with picking your brains over your loom as well as mine has a connector or 2 looking at number of wires missing and it needs to be complete.

The downpipes are relatively tidy, they are starting to rust but nothing a wire brush can't fix, not looking for much as they are just going to sit in the shed and rust more (im using stainless downpipes atm), as for the wiring ive got a complete t'cat loom so should be able to help although i have fitted it to the fzr now so pictures might be a little bit awkward but ill do what i can ;)

Little update.

The motor is in and fitted, the chain is on, the loom is part fitted, the bike cranks but wont fire.

The stator was damaged when I have the casing welded, Anybody know if the 400 stator will fit the Thundercat??

Also I ordered my exhaust downpipes from M&P the thursday before the fire so as yet no pipes :( :(

I've tried to fit a geny from a 4JH to a 3TJ engine the wires are in the worng place and the casing is slightly different.
Thinking about it, do you mean the pickups on the other end of the crank ??? I'd assume they're different.
