Coolant billet “crack” pipe for 2.8 & 3.2 24v VR6 engines
£105.00
Commonly found on 24-valve VR6 engines, this pipe runs from the rear of the water pump to the thermostat housing and sits beneath the intake manifold.
Upgrading from the original plastic construction to billet aluminium is a deliberate choice eliminating a known failure point caused by heat cycling and material fatigue.
The result is a durable, long-term solution designed to give you confidence that this is the last time you’ll need to replace this pipe on your vehicle.
Description
Description
The factory water distribution pipe is made from plastic, like many OEM cooling components and over time, constant heat cycles cause it to become brittle and prone to failure.
Rather than replacing it with another weak plastic part, we developed a permanent upgrade: a precision-machined billet aluminium water pipe.
Using the OEM component as a baseline, every critical dimension has been replicated for a perfect fit. The pipe is crafted from 6061 aluminium, delivering exceptional strength without unnecessary weight.
The entire assembly is then anodized, providing a durable finish that resists corrosion and enhances longevity.
The result is a stronger, more reliable, and better-looking solution designed to outperform and outlast anything else on the market.
Available with AN6 banjo, straight or block off fitting.
Don’t settle for another temporary fix upgrade to a cooling solution built to last.
