I will ask john again as it's been 4 years when he answered that question about a 3 L . It doesn't warp or crack 321 stainless is used for aircraft exhausts however it's a very difficult material to work with when machining .

Thanks Ray, I will continue beingopen about my build as its not just for meits for everyone. The reason we went 2.8L so it could rev and a 3L dont like to rev and the block is not designed to have a diff sitting under it. If John had the choice on L he would want it to be a 6L. 321 Stainless has titanium in it, to help handle high temps better than other stainless grades.

Hey Kyle Thanks for the comments. Yes its been exactly 3 years i met you at palm beach cruise with PJ. No problems mate your manifolds are the best over so many makers out there. This is not coming form me its coming from John. Once we get this build close to finishing i sure you will get to the results of the Exhaust manifold John has made for us ( this is for everyone) .

Hey Ariel, Thank you for the Comments The intercooler we are using is one of the topof the line ARC i think there are pics early in the thread. and the piping kit is all custom 80mm i had to make them myself, as you cannot buy 80mm internal diameter in Aluminium pipe and bends. John made three nylon balls each started from i think 77mm to 80mm and i pulled them through a 76mm pipe cold using a hydralic chain system. I might have some old video's on this i can post. Inlet manifold we are using is a Nismo Intake that John checked along side others and found this to do the job. John did do flow test on this manifold. As we all know the factory manifold has a mistake in it giving rear cylinders upto 16% more airflow.

The car is for sale and I am after overseas buyers. If you have the money, make an offer. 1 million is just a number so we could see maximuim offers made by interested parties Ebay gives good exposure and no ebay does not make any more money on the sale as its a fixed price listing. Nismo built Two Number 1 - R34 -Z-P001 ( Press car, nismo ownes this car and they will never sell it) R34 -Z- 001 ( Is the first z - tune built for sale) Build numbers upto and including 12 were r34 gtr V-spec bought back by Nismo, any build numbers after 12 were personal r34 gtr v-spec sent is and were z -tuned. The last Z- tune build is number 18 ( this car was owned by Nismo CEO) and is currently for sale starting price is 25million yen. There are a couple of z-tunes for sale they all have over 30,000kms on the ODO and are looking for offers, last i heard they all wanted over 19million yen offers. Description on ebay was not filled is as i guess the car speaks for its self. The link add tells you all about the car. The buyer i am looking for is someone who knows the car and values the epic car for its build number. If you guys have anyone questions pls msg me Thank you

Hey Michael, I will measure it and let you know.

Hey Ian, Yes John will tig weld internally. John will seperate each exhaust outlet so it will be allowed to expand. He has some other ideas in his head that he has not mentioned to me i guess i wait and see what he will do.

Small update. The manifold has been pulled apart to finalize any machining work and welding I have some pics of the flange

Up for sale is a pair of R34 gtr Headlights in excellant condition asking Price $950 Text = 0414959914

The red lines are for the installation of a plunger infront of the turbo. John does not like anti surge slots as this also reduces the efficiency of the turbo.

1jz and 2jz suffer this alot and its hard to bet away from not using that 90 degree bend

The turbo was rotated towards the rocker cover to achieve the best exit of the turbo that was not a 90 degree bend like everyone else has, john has said 90 degree bend can cause upto 15% loss in efficiency of the turbo.

Low mount manifold? Or does the comp cover face in towards the rocker cover? This pic will answer your question

Some more different angle pic sof the manifold. It is now pulld appart to finish off the final needed welds.

The weight of the manifold with just the wastegates bolted on is about 7kg. Spoke to John about the brace, he will be adding a brace or bracing system to the manifold however at this point of time he has not stated where. Once he does i will update you.
