What coupler is this?
1 Attachment(s)
I just bought this car and found a leaking coupler/gasket.
Anyone know the name of this or a good place to order them from? Thanks in advance. Attachment 757383 |
2 1/2 inch silicone coupler sold at most auto parts stores or on ebay for dirt cheap.

If you can afford it, you should invest that money on a efini y pipe. Though if you get a silicone coupler the oil might weaken it over time.
|
Is it 2.5"? I thought that's a 2.75".
|
i just went out and measured. it is 2.75"
Siliconeintakes.com or CXracing.com Would be a good time to put some good t-bolt clamps on it as well. |
It's the 'Y' pipe to crossover coupler. The OEM ones typically failed from all the heat. That's why MAZDA did the re-design to the efini 'Y' pipe to eliminate it. It's the way to go if you can afford it. If you can't, I've had good experience with these ---> Straight NX500 : HoseTechniques - T-Bolt Clamps NX500 Hose PY350 Hose Diesel Power Hose Silicone Vacuum & Heater Hose Oil Hose BLOW-OUT & CLEARANCE HoseTech Racing Industrial Hose Your Logo Custom Spec OEM Hoses hosetechniques, The best silicone hose
They'll tolerate alot of oil without issues. |

I'm and work and can't check, but is this a 2.75" straight coupler? Not a 2.5 to 2.75 or something.
|
2.75" straight.
|
^Yep. And I'm thinking three (3) inches long should be fine. Don't go ebay or you'll have the same issue in short order. Quality is worth it here.
|
Ok great, thanks guys.
I was looking at mishimoto since I've heard good things about them and they have a lifetime warranty, but couldn't find a 2.75" straight from them. I'm looking into Hose Techniques, they have them for about $10 +shipping |
Pay the money and get the Y Pipe. It was the best thing I did to mine. Makes maintenance easier too because the pipe simply unbolts rather than messing about with sealing that pipe
