ive got a home-made heat-shield atm, i would like a full cai box, but money is a bit scarce atm (pooling all of it towards re-build), so maybe later on

thats understandable. If your keen then i would just need money for the materials, i aint going to make a profit of you sam. :chairshot :lock:

it should be. Wish i know how to do real life road tuning of the pfc since he has the hand controller. He wants me to attend and film the dyno tune tomorrow then on friday duc's r34 is getting dyno tuned at the same place and i think he wanted me there too. =S

cool, sounds like you should be busy with the dyno-tuning, i guess you cuold pick up some info on how the tuning is done by watching.

and apply it to road tuning. Im definately going that option once i get my pfc. I remember fiddling with dan's when he got his fitted and tuned. hehehe

Hey Duc, think i could be keen on one of those CAI boxs! How much do you think?

i wouldnt have a clue atm. Depends on how much materials cost - metal/steel/aliminium what is used can be a it pricey last i looked. Im sure i can make them for less than the $130 odd there going for atm. Cant rememeber if will's used bolts or rivets. But i will make one and then go from there.

Yeh no worries thought of getting one for a while now, let me know when available, that would be grande!!

surfing drift related sites and stumbled across this. I love soarers even though its a toyota but this one looks so damn nice not to mention the fact that it has a rb26 conversion. =O

look at that vented bonnet. the vents makes up most of the bonnet.

the way the cooler is mounted seems to be very popular with the drift crowd.

thats one tough looking soarer, someones spent big on that one...
Yeah, but why the RB26? Don't get me wrong i love em, but a 2JZGTE would have bolted in MUCH easier, or a 1.5JZGTE (2JZGE block with the 1JZGTE head) is a bloody good setup too, either is not to be sneezed at and with the money saved from a full conversion like that... ah well.

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
