Anything strike you as odd about this auction for an HKS downpipe?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 439260796
Like where it says:
"HKS mild steel 75mm SR20DET downpipe for Subaru Impreza WRX."
The SR20DET is a Nissan engine!
And it goes on to say:
"It does NOT replace the catalytic converter, but bolt right onto the factory catalytic converter"
But then says:
"Eliminates (2) Rear Cats "
Other oddities include this statement:
"Mild steel piping reduces weight reduction over stock unit."
Does that mean it's heavier?
Finally, there's some confusion over the pipe size claiming that it's 75mm and then that it's 80mm.
Something seems pretty fishy to me? It apears to be an HKS downpipe in the picture, but that description really makes me wonder what you'd get...

Wow... I've seen some errors in auction listings but this one's gotta take the cake.
Better to stay clear. The current price is $70 shipped, which isn't good enough to warrant the potential difficulty. You can get them for like $120 shipped fairly easily, and they're not even really that great as far as aftermarket downpipes go.
