Also, I have a dirt-cheap Holley-to-L24 manifold in the garage if you need it.

Cheers, D

That sound interesting mate, wouldn't have a spare set of extractors laying around too?

Think I've sorted the pulley conversion today, swapped the air con pulley straight over. Had to drill the magnet assembly, drill and tap the supercharger housing to suit and then for the front clutch plate It needed to be keyed onto the spline of the output shaft.

Should keep the boost down too being a larger pulley, just need to sort the mounts and idler pulley arrangement. Then plum it up and blow it up :)

I don't think that have extractors, although I have bought and sold a few sets in my time... but I might be able to track a set down for you. I'll hit my mate's factory next weekend to have a look for useful bits and pieces, and to grab that manifold. He's a scrap metal dealer, and has a stream of random bombs coming in and out, so have a think about parts that might be useful from other cars, too (idler pulley etc).

Your project is looking wild, so like Mr Shadow says, keep the pics/videos coming!

I recieved your money and spent it at the pub... and I had a really great time.

Your Holley manifold went into the post last week, so it should arrive Mon or Tues. Hope it serves its purpose well.

Well progress has slowed but I'm still moving forward,

I've added a resonator to the exhaust and removed the rear muffler(replaced by the twins) Finished the s/c inlet, sent the s/c outlet for welding, finished the top bracket(V-3.0) ready for welding and discovered the new inlet manifold won't work with the factory exhaust manifold so waiting on extractors now.

more pics in the mean time,

Port matched and polished

Red bull gives you wings(especially when u add bourbon to it)

Got my grove on and polished some shit tonight, SC bracket and the lid for the plenum chamber I suppose you'd call it?

but more importantly I've made the best cup holder ever, It's even adjustable ;)

Shit, think my wings just fell off :D

Hope you printed off lots of order forms, there could be high demand for those holders especially as it comes with complimentary Beam ( I assume)?

For you mate, of course.

It's a no drill mod too

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
