anyway ive heard that if you do the flip with the stock manifold you can easily high mount some twins( got to love people makeing stuff up)

obviously the middle manifold holes are the dram(wrong way around) but with alittle bit of grinding should be apples might become a leaking problem cause your centre cylinder isnt clamped down as well

anyway anyone done it before? am i just a crack pot... most likely

anyway

or do i buy some china manifold as just mod some bolt holess for the centre cylinder on them??????

cheers in advance

nismoid i know you want me

bugger off ... my last resort is buying those filthy china one

i want to mod the factory cast buggers(even cheaper option that the china crap) to fit the high mount for position fo rthe gtr head then run some cheap nasty turbo which will make some 400 rwkw love

laser cut flanges 50-100 bux

but i wouldnt do that i would just remove the bolt hols form the centre cylinder oem cast manifold weld on a plate with the corect orientation holes for the centre cylinder and get it decked

50 bux total me thinks (im sure there are some welding tocast material issues but who cares cheap as piss)

and lets face it thats my middle name

lets face it, do what you will with your cheater motor. you pussy. i say go for high mount tripples. otherwise you are just soft like the rest of the GTR powered wimps.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
