nah ross, i just came up with the idea myself really, i mean i knew some people did it, and i figured it was better to have the pipe crossing under the car where its cooler rather than through the hot engine bay....

xu6 was hsv's supercharged and tweaked v6 commie, problem was when the ba falcon came out, the base 6cyl model out performed it

lol - nice progress on the engine development holden. ford are killin em in this department - quad cam v8's and dohc 6's.

yeah the x-over in the engine bay seems a bit silly. so yeah - is that a 90degree silicon bend or solid pipe?

ok the pipes cost me 150 bucks from memory

there were 2 45deg mandrel bends, 2 90 degree mandrel bends, and 1 180 degree mandrel bend. no silicone bends, silicon turbo pipe was costly (red joiners) but that was about it, only thing i have to do is support the pipes a little better cause when you hit it with full boost they move around a little bit

ross um

only other pic is www.ozemail.com.au/~jcornford/ic2.JPG

the pipes were done by ashmore exhaust, and then i just had to cut em to suit, it was a bit of a bitch tho, in the end i cobbled it together rather roughly but it works, theres a few things that could be done to tidy the whole thing up if i get the time, which i incidently have now, i just need to get the effort :D

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
