Nice intake plenum! Was that your own work?

cheers

tom.

[Barney]

Yeh most of it

I cut off the old plenum and made the new plenum and end caps to fit the L300 runners. i then had it tig welded together, i then finnished it off with a linisher and digrinder.

total volume of runners and plenum is 3.8 ltrs.

Love the intake pipe and the POD!!! wow

what's with the strut mounting bolts if I my don't deceive me there's only two nuts holding it in place :!: ...

[Barney]

no i just looks like it, 2 of them have silver heads and sit almost flush.

The suspension is adjustable coilovers Kingsprings/Koni, with 3.2 degrease camber

[Barney]

Nice pipe work, is that a Skyline turbo? did u make a ex manifold for it, or adapter?

[C Fernance]

It's not fair. I want power windows and a digital dash for my Scorp. IRS would be nice too :x LOL.

Good see some pics Ash, i cant wait to get my import finished

I remember u telling me about it when u were in melb, but the pix make it look awsome!! I cant stop looking @ your engine bay!!

at the moment im doing the body work. i will have pix up next week

[Barney]

Hi Glen good to hear from you, I hope its all going well in Melborne. cant wait to see some pics of yours

Im glad you guys like it :)

the turbo is off a R32 Skyline its a T28. I made the exhaust manifold out off mandrel bends of steam pipe.
When the turbo $#&@ its self i will fit a HKS GT2530 turbo, the good thing about fitting Garrett turbos is that there so many options the will fit the exhaust manifold.

I cant wait to fit the new intercooler thats sitting on top of the engine.

What you you guys think if I took photos of fitting it and posted the as i progressed thru the project :?:

That engine looks insane - we have to meet up some time - i live down in Mandurah but im always up in perth - I know another guy in mandurah who has a Sapporo turbo and hes always into interesting conversions - im sure he could help you out.

I drive a white JA - dunno if uve seen me - i go to a lot of Jap car cruises.
