iii its the sr20det manifold, not strengthened no, manifold was on my old nova turbo 18months with a t34 no probs so shouldnt see anything going wrong any time soon. had the oil feed pipe made at pirtek £10 and bought the water feed/return off a guy on ebay about £30 all braided of course

matey how did u fit the t34 to that mannifold base flange cause it wont fit right here...holes are mis-aligned

cheers

[jamie gsi16v]

because the manifold flange on the 200sx one is t25 and a t34 needs a t3 flange so i put a t3 flange on the end.

[Adam]

where do u get the t3 flange? jsh

[jamie gsi16v]

off a t3 manifold lol,

not updated much recently but the following has been done

fitted some proper vmax evo5 chips and now the engine management light stays off

fitted a racetech 2.5 bar boost gauge to match my racetech oil temp and oil pressure gauges all in a 3 pillar pod

purchased a 255lph fuel pump to be fitted tomorrow pics to follow

did some heat wrapping today, wet it first then tightly wrapped it and ran the engine to dry it now its very tight, hands sting like hell though from the fibres in the wrap





the 4 pipes took 15 metres of wrap!

my 3" downpipe, 15 metres did not go far here! keeps most the heat off the rad though.





also did a few repairs today, my dash 31 actuator was really close to my rad and sunday night it pierced it so fitted a new rad today 50/50 water and antifreeze along with some water wetter to keep things cool. replaced the big alloy dash 31 with a smaller actuator of the same pressure rating supplied by forge.

today i ordered my ferodo ds2500 brake pads for my 288mm v6 brakes along with some high temp motorsport brake fluid should arrive thursday.

also fitting tomorrow my 13 row mocal oil cooler to replace the standard small item and new filter with oil

then if i finish early enough tomorrow i may run down to just novas and corsas and stick it on the rolling road to set my fuelling and fit my dawes device, and do a power run

on the track this weekend at donnington so its all systems go this week.

updates tomorrow

looks good mate, certainly is all systems go go go!

Heatwrap and bare hands=Nasty

Youve done a good job of the wrapping, should help bay temps.

[stoner_corsa]

alrite fella corsa looks mint, what intercooler and radiator you got there mate, im doing a let conversion on a corsa with a gsi bumper and dont really wanna butcher it much, but that dont look bad, where did you get them from and how much if you dont mind me asking?

[dave wilkinson]

lookin good jay, i should be down for this trackday depending on weather i can find some motivation to do mine. that wetter water and the heat wrap should sort any heat issues out. might be worth putting some bonnet raisers on it aswel mate. worked on mine, and found i could stay on track for aslong as i wanted.

radiator is standard mate, and intercooler is just a universal jobbie off ebay

[jamie gsi16v]

managed to get my 13 row mocal oil cooler fitted today, very very tight fit but just got it on



yes the top pipes are very very close to the inner carbon skin on the bonnet but just managed to get it shut!!



the lip of the bonnet just sits this side of the pipes and they tuck nicely up under it.
