great post :(

but i would not recomend using ebay manifold i got one and when i had everything done i went to put water in and filled no two pot up with water. i relised this by water coming out of my throtle body before i started the car. pulled it of and it was leaking from water gallery to runner. porous cast aluminium. if u are going to do it i would highly recomend pressure testing.

sent it back and they sent me another one LOST POWER and the fuel rail didnt line up....

sanded and polished oem and refitted never happyer

and if you ar going to do this, mount the throtle cable Bracket better than in the picks, or your throttle body will stick open..

so i guess the stock throttle body can fit in these copies as long as i can find adaptor plate

can make your own plate,its not too hard really,:)

'' mines all sealed up no leeks anywhere, but im haveing high idle problems now, even with brown plug off offaac valve,when that is attached it revs even higher. and idle screws one on air control i put right in helps abit. and little one on throtle is screwed outhelps a bit,but still somthing isnt right . with everythng set where it should be it revs at around 1500-2000 can anyone help? cheers.

before fitting one of these you need to make sure everything lines up. i had to chop out a bit of where the AAC valve sits as when i lined it up i found it only had an opening of 1mm, i had to grind it out so it all sat properly - it would have definitely caused an idle problem.

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
