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.

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
