My Shit Box

[XRATED]

I wasn't infering you had copied the Jenvey pleunum... Great minds do think alike though.

But it is similar.

Jenvey are one of the world leaders in aftermerket intake design. I have seen a one off Jenvey intake (in the US) for an rb26 that was amazing... very very xxx'y.

If I was going to fab from scratch an intake, I personally would look at the Jenvey designs and start there....

Either way whoever designed your's, has a good handle on intake design.

Rekorderling by far?, this week im hoping to finish the stitching in the cab weld up a few of the floor pan holes, i am going to make some nice cover plates and nut serts for a few of the other holes just incase i need to run some thing later and will get started on the full rewire.

Does any one know if the abs unit has a inbulit computer like most abs units or if it has an external unit as i want to retain the abs?

Main hoop for the cage should come soon as well so i will start that after the wire up, depending how far i get on sunday i will cut the rear gaurds strech the inner skin and make up the templates for the wide body but see what happens.

I will post up some pics of the front gaurds as i wi be moudling the glas onto the steel frame of the old gaurds for rigidity and strength.

Xrated, im with you now the pick up running the length of the manifold hahaha sorry mate major seniors moment ?.

I was looking through there site last night they have some very nice stuff and if you did use that as i starting point i think you would be pretty much on the money.

Me and my old man did everything for mine, he has done a fair bit before.

It's a great way to pick up extra intake runner length, without running into the strut tower.

If only I had the skills and gear.... to make my ideas come to life.\

If you ever get bored, a direct comparison of stock v's your intake mani would be a very interesting read.

I wish i had, after all the turbo was changed and everything i had thought about it and wished i did a back to back but bit to late now i think, i know it will make a big difference and give it allot more bottom end and mid range which rbs lack a bit.

So it should be good, decided today on a bright blood orange with black bonet black duck tail and just waiting for a quote back from provynil for doing the decals.

Im still

Umming and ahhing about black wheels or keep them silver.

If your going to wrap the car... why not wrap the wheels?

[James_C]

The car will be painted only a little bit of graphics will be in vynil, the wrap would melt man the brakes will see 700-800 deg easy i think i will just leave them silver for the moment hahaha plenty of other stuff to worry about yet.

So finally getting a bit more done on the wiring and getting one step closer to firing it up after 3 years of sitting still.

Finished up the fuse box and relay board now and i have all the control box done and started the wiring in process, all the rear lights main and lift pump wiring is done and all the terminals fitted and now i am onto the front of the car, once all the front wiring is done i will make all the dash cluster and new gauge panels and wire all the warning led's in.

So it looks like the wide body is now for sale as due to the wtac class restriction i cant use a wide body in my class, so i will have to stretch the steel guards as much as i can to make everything fit.

The fronts i should get 20mm out of quite easily but the rear will be a challenge.

Had all the new gauges turn up some of the old ones will get the turf any way some pis of where i am up to.
