Hey guys, just wondering if anyone here is running a jpc modified sump and has had any problems with it?

Yep and its the biggest piece of **** I have ever seen. I think the blind work experience kid welded it up cos it leaked like a sieve. Quality at its finest After trying to fuse it over with the tig in the car Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ROFL what the **** look at those welds

Lol ! .... Fairly bad workmanship

Looks like a high energy sump would be a better choice.

I expect better welds from the apprentice at work!

jesus thats horrible! thought JPC made good quality parts?? lol

Doubt they would let that **** out the door, I got a ASR sump only thing was to change was power steering line to pump

seen some of the welds on KD747? bit ordinary

Lmao that is ****ed.

Lol that fills me with confidence... well mine doesn't leak although the welds are to be honest **** house... are there any other problems with them picking up oil n such?

I have a feeling - but don't quote me on this as fact, but I 'heard' that JPC outsource some of their welding work. My brother who is a welder by trade saw my exhaust manifold 'made by JPC' and did raise an eyebrow at it. I have been more than happy with JPC's work in other areas though, the turbo I bought was first class, the dyno tuning was excellent and the service is always very very good. I think 'quality control' issues like this happen with every business - what is important is that if you're unhappy with the product you let them know ASAP so they have a chance to rectify it.

i agree with morgz , there work is pretty much spot on .... as i used to be a customer of them allthough i was under the assumption that the younger bloke they have working with them does the welding for them ... as well as i saw him welding things a few times

Yeah I agree, I've used heaps of there stuff and know they usually make good stuff... just I was bit iffy on the sump so thought I'd see if anyone who's using one would know anything

What did they quote you to do the job??

I bought it new second hand for 400

l would have rang up mark and told him and got him to fix it that looks like crap
