Hi,

I searched the NorCal forums and couldn't find any mention of Ti welders. Does anyone know of a shop around here that does good work?

I checked SoCal and I've seen Chris Parker of TeamCPR mentioned before, but he is in Costa Mesa. I would rather not go that far if I do not have to.

Thanks!

 

what do you need welded?

 

Exhaust. I am considering adding more bracing as a preventative measure in order to avoid damage to the resonator, which would lead to rattling. Something like this:

Even if I don't do it, I'd like to know ahead of time where the Ti welders are at, just in case something does break.

 

ummm... RWD_RCKT may know someone... maybe he'll shime in...

 

www.ntpbikes.com try contacting dan. he is located in SF and builds titanium bikes. pricing may not be cheap but neither is titanium.

 

My neighbor can weld it. He has repaired a few resonators (mostly J's but he has done one Amuse) already. He has made custom titanium pie cut exhausts for S2000's as well as vintage Triumph TR-6. He has average pricing but he gives a no break guarantee or he fixes it for free.

His welder is at his house in Dublin (INDUSTRIAL 220V-200A welder) so you don't have to futz with taking time off work for normal business hours.

 

I had my J's 60 repaired through him.

 

Thanks all, for your input. I will look into these.

I still don't know if I should just wait and hope nothing breaks, or try to prevent it from happening.
