I'm just gonna get right down to it
Was running a poorly built 1 1/4" steam pipe log manifold made with pipe tee's and 90s... It cracked all to shit in a matter of 1000 miles (guy didn't know what he was doing/no purge etc)
He's a couple pics of the log

Like I said within 1000-1500 miles it was cracked to shit!!!!

Fall is lovely here

Sick!!! I wanna here the thing dumping out of the gate at full noise!

Where you at? Northern States? Canada?

Nice fab work anyway, I agree with the above, full build thread required!

yea its not tuned yet. My tuner is actually a very good friend of mine from way back.... He's so unbelieveably busy with his business and flying planes (second job) we haven't had the time to tune it yet. I switched to AEM (map) from an L-Jet Power FC so we gotta start all over.

we'll see how these ID's like 80psi base fuel pressure.

I had the gate dumping under the car for a while than we recirc'd it into the DP. I think it will sound much better with this manifold over the log style though.

Its getting so late in the season here Im really not rushing it.... I don't know if it will be 100% until spring at this point, we'll see.

PS.... anyone notice its not a GT-R? :)

Edited by R32N00B

hows the boost control?

It's a 60mm gate

Shouldn't be an issue

Hard to tell in pictures but it's the pipe to the gate is over 2.5inches

Using a Greddy Profec-B spec 2 solenoid with the AEM V2

(The downpipe is 90mm/3.5in and the IC pipe is 3in)

Edited by R32N00B

Looks great.

You may have boost control issues when the screamer fills with snow though... :P

LOL Nahhhh, by the time the motor is warm enough to crack gate the snow will have melted and the gate unfrozen.

Besides, one blast of that gate will blow anything out of the way lol

  • Like 1

:thumbsup: approved!!

wonder if the log manifold was done with the wrong filler rod?

I know he didnt backpurge..... he also didnt bolt it to steel plate while welding either so the flange kept warping pretty hard.

I will post vids when the time comes but its so late in the season now It might not be until spring/April

    • i will be there 😁
    • 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!
