Was talking to john at unique autosports and he showed me a few manifolds that they had extrusion honed.

They did a flow bench test before and after and the honed manifold flowed alot more. The average before was 131 cfm @ 25 inches of mercury. After it increased to an average of 155. One thing which he said was it was alot more even as the more restrictive runners were ported slightly and extrusion honed more.

I have already replaced my manifold with a custom one, however if there is interest in this then we can organise a group buy. He suggested it would be about 500ish exchange.

I want to do the same thing to my intake plennum soon... there is no reason to replace it with a greddy big one until you are chasing 260+rwkw..

i find this really interesting about honing the exhaust manifold, still not 100% on what this means and what can actually be done. I guess it means cleaning up the casting marks and dags, cant really open the runner coz then the gasket wont watch it. Any info?

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
