Default Uk supplier for a T3 flange

Im after a T3 flange to make a manifold with, seem to be dead easy to find stateside but not so much so over here, would sooner source a UK one though as its less hassle.
Anyone know who sells them?

AET do a GT25 / GT30 flange, so I assume as a GT30 fits a 2wd manifold it would be similar?

I would imaging Turbo Dynamics would do them too, as they do various flanges (or did when I enquired last)

Need it in the next couple of weeks ideally.


I think the GT25/GT30 one shown is a T2 flange, as thats what most GT30's actually come with if they are internally gated (obviously not the ones cossie lads use though!)

thats handy to know Dan

would you require a cad drawing for the part to be cut or would you need the actual part to cad-cam/measure yourself etc?

(I can send a plenum gasket as a template)

thats not a problem,

pm me a rough drawing, and i'll get a price.

The only draw back just like laser cutting, there's a minumum charge, so one off's can be quite dear, but cheap if a few are done at the same time.

They can do 0.5 - 200mm in any material, and the finish is alot better than laser cutting, as there is no heat involved

This is the shape mate (mobile phone for scale)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...Photo-0115.jpg


If you could PM me an approx price for 1 and for 5 that would be great.

Also for a flat plate the same outline but "solid" so its not just a spacer but a "lid" for it, made of 4mm or so ally.

not in my opinion as im not asking how to make one, im asking who can supply one, which seems like a good subject for general discussion.

Cant see I care much either way though as if it does get moved somewhere else, I will still be able to get to it via "view my posts"

What I would like though is for it not to get spammed with irrelevant chat, so in that respect perhaps it WOULD be better away from GD!
