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

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
