I'm undergoing the same task ATM blake .

Although im makeing a Low mount similar to Nissans

If u look at te factory Nissan there runners aren't even length !

Also tips I've been given is after its all tacked cut the runners back of and weld the flange it's a lot easier to get a neat weld there

Weld the colecter first when u make it

Also when welding the head flange bolt it down to something Iike 100x100x5 should help prevent warping

I'm makin mine out of 36nb pipe that is 3mm wall 304 stainless

You can buy the merger and the collector which I will be doing comes with flange and all that's the hardest iv heard and they look smick stainless ay sounds good as I'll make my down pipe stainless. How much where materials if you don't mind me asking

Man I got the material thru my work and was under 100 cause boss loves me hahahah I have 1 1/2 meters of straight and 9 bends man honestly it would prob be about 200 roulghly

If I had to pay ful price probably woulda went mild there is a company on eBay that sell steamy pipe bends u get like 20 for 60 bucks hahahah then get pipe to suit it

And I have seen them merges on eBay for 90 bucks man they look ok just depends on wall thickness

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
