    I'm undergoing the same task ATM blake .

    Although im makeing a Low mount similar to Nissans

    If u look at te factory Nissan there runners aren't even length !

    Also tips I've been given is after its all tacked cut the runners back of and weld the flange it's a lot easier to get a neat weld there

    Weld the colecter first when u make it

    Also when welding the head flange bolt it down to something Iike 100x100x5 should help prevent warping

    I'm makin mine out of 36nb pipe that is 3mm wall 304 stainless

    Hey Chris what's been happining any up dates on the manifold?

    I finally have got motivated enough to get some material to do one myself :-)

    The manifold I'm making will be the same low mount design as stock .

    I have found a good way to cut merges on the band saw at work

    I'm using 36 nominal nominal bore pipe who's is the 3mm wall so 42 od

    I'm going with 4 into one collecter ( when u examine the stock mani u will under stand why I went with the 4 instead of 6 into one )

    For my merge I'm going with a 20 degree cut angle as well

    The manifold will be made out of 304 ss and fully perged for maximum strength an reliability

    Ideally I want to sit pretty much in exactly the same spot as factory :-)

    Although There will be a lot of test fitting and trial and error

    I'm hoping all goes well :-) any pointers?

    Also I pulled the head off a facked rb20 I had and was gunna bolt the mani to that when welding hopefully it will suck some the heat and won't distort too much

    All the best

    Supposedly R32 High Flowed Turbo Questions (Pics Inside)

    in Forced Induction Performance

    Posted

    Yeah I rekin it's a highflow as well

    the back of the comp housing isn't the stock for sure Looks like a t4 core maybe a t3 t4 highflow ?

    The inducer on comp housing looks like its bored bigger and had a hone as well to suit bigger comp wheel

    Actuator rod looks different to factory 33 as well

    As for the lines take it to a shop that does braided lines some autobahns do speed flow fittings and could knock something up for ya

    Keep Burning Glow Plugs In Diesel 2001 Ford Courier

    in General Automotive Discussion

    Posted

    As above my car ha burnt another set of glow plugs

    I started her in the middle of the day and rough started (unburnt diesel)

    I don't under stand why it's doing this I have three possible souloutions but after advice from experienced diesel mechanics

    1 . They are over charging and not turning off all the time

    2. Diesel pump is leaning the mixture and killing them( which I suspect because it doesn't really leave any diesel smoke under accel and always thought it may run lean )

    3. There not getting enough power and there being killed from being started before glowing ?

    Any help appreciated

    Should I Do The Bearings While I Have The Engine Out

    in Forced Induction Performance

    Posted

    Yeah that's what I thought its got 120k on it I got it at 68k and it was bog stock but who knows if the ks are correct I am suspect on all imports in regards to klms they have hahahah

    The engine has been awesome never let me down

    But I figure if I just did the bearings( and rings which was a good idea kiwi rs4t)

    I shouldn't have to worry too much Hopefully

    Any ideas where to go for good prices on oem parts?

    Nissan will charge through the ass ;-)
