yeh, but you have to run a divider plate between the engine and the bonnet over the radiator support.

dont worry Jase, you will see... :banana:

wouldn't that suck major hot air unless there was a cold air feed?

hmmmm, yes, very nice. The Carbon Fibre is a bit overkill though, and tune lenght intake runners will be expensive i dare say. Harrop do one also but 12k

Hey Stu, go get some Kleenex for cleanup. You're gonna need them.

Harden the f**k up. Here's the same manifold with Al tubes.

my s13 needs an ls1 just so i can fit that manifold.

But i reckon i can make the throttle linkage more complicated :ph34r:

Very interested to see how this car goes. You only need to better a 1:07.9 at wakefield and you are quicker than my old r32. I reckon your car has 6's in it without too much trouble, probably quicker with a bit of seat time.

yes, im all over it brother, Aaron has already quized him on runner lengths which will blow your mind.

they are also doing me some CnCd rocker covers which are trick.

Stu, I would quiz Jamie from NRE on how these are set up. They do the ones for Ingall etc.

not heaps to report. have been chipping away at the long list of little fidly jobs like mounting ECU and com port, fitting temp senders, gear shift boot, tow hooks, etc. heaps fidly and time consuming but has to be done. have some second hand rubber on those rays datonas and they look good. scored some second hand semi slicks of one of the brut utes. the biggest i can fit on the front is a 235. have a 245 comfortably on the rear. going to get wired soon. even put engine oil in it today so very close.

A little more done. I have fitted the LS1 wiring harness and ran it into the car to the ECU which is mounted on the passenger floor. Mounted com port plug in pasenger air vent. modified the harness and moved the position of the o2 sensor plugs as they were mounted further down the exhaust before, now they are in the headers.

brakes are bled, clutch also. fluids in engine, trans & diff.

Modified the steering knuckle a little just to get a bit more clearance. had to relieve passenger engine mount also. had to pump the trans tunnel around the shifter opening also.

Radiator, thermo fan and hoses all plumbed. Temp sender was fitted in cylinder head.

Tow hooks fitted front and rear.

Fitted diff pineapples, waiting for front & rear sway-bars to arrive.

Thats about it, going to get wired this week, then doing the tin work and fabbing a catch can and recovery tank and some ducting. Should get her back after Christmas.

Looks like you are soon finihed, and it is looking great! :rofl:

You must upload more photos and video clip from first startup... I want to hear it roar!! :laugh:

Do you have more pictures from the engine bay and interior? :no:

only whats already been posted, nothing much else has changed.

Does look great, though looks wierd not having anything hanging out through the opening in the bar. May have to glass it back to teh radiator so you dont see light through there.

Tell me where to write a 10k checque for the conversion and i will post it off....only i know it woudl cost way more then 10k ;)

All it needs to be truly toss worthy is a close ratio box and a big silly cam to make the thing nice and peaky and make good top end. LOL, i seem to like spending money making cars slower ;)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
