so is it any good though? :) (getting a GT35/40R to sit under it)

 

wastegate doesn't sit too high does it? going on the RB31DET in the 32 so hopefully i can close the bonnet....

 

Anyone got any pics of what it looks like setup??

From the pic, the turbo will sit onto on the manifold. not under, which might make everything a tight sqeeze down there.

If u can get it cheap the it might be worth it, coz cast stuff like manifolds aint the best.

1. I agree with what Roy said about it being low mount. It HAS to because of the stud pattern.

2. How much research have you done to come to the conclusion x manifold is better than y manifold?? Please explain....

and there is more room now under the manifold due to the height on the new motor :)

Sorry abo0ut the stupid question, but how the HELL does a low mount manifold sit a turbo above it????

And equal length runnners and steampipe arn't the be all and end all of manifolds. Its more about how the pipes merge into each other, then into the turbo flange. If you dont know this manifold does go 3,2,1...

INASNT, the top mount is for the wastegate. Have a look at the two runners with the bolt direction different from the other four.

The two that are different go to the rear of the block.

Bl4cK32, have you had the inside de burred/tidied up? It may be worth ceramic coating or wrapping it before it goes on too. Looks like a vast improvement on the stock item, as the gasses are merged rather than slammed into eachother.

If it doesnt fit, just get a hump in the bonnet, or even a raised vent. Would serve a dual purpose that way.:)

Look where the flange on your manifold. When u bolt the manifold to the head the flange it facing up, so the turbo will bolt on to the flange making the turbo sit ontop of the manifold. Low mount means the turbo is still sitting down beside the head not high above the cam covers.

DOH, i didnt look at the pic that carefully :)

That manifold doesent look like it will make the turbo sit high enough up to cause any bonnet closing problems

Just arrived in Australia Steve :) but some work will be done to it (heat wrap or coating) the inside looks pretty damn smooth...

A nice hole in the bonnett for the wastegate eh:D

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
