What do you think of Wardy's manifolds? As I'm probably going to get one to replace my top mount..

Stunning.
Comparable to 6boost without the price tag.
The collector is a work of art!

It's about a 4 week turnaround on one, I went to pick mine up and Andy was flat out so expect a bit longer.

Little update :

All fab was finished.

However being top mount & having a MAF fairly close to the turbo was causing MAF stall. I could have re routed the pipe further but I wasn't overly happy with this.

So I emptied the wallet & the car now has LINK G4+

Mapped by Martin Battye @ 1.5 Bar .

Estimated 400hp , maybe a tad over.

The car feels great, spool is sharp and doesn't have the lag of other cars I've driven with similar turbos. The GTX gets 2 thumbs up from me.

6-speed is still holding on!

Update !



This was the lowest run of the day. Other runs made between 435 & 450.

Not bad going for stock block & OEM 6 Speed

Well I knew my 6-Speed wouldn't last long but it ended itself.

Would barely go into third & fourth.

Garage - D overhauled box purchased for the time being until I do a 350Z conversion.

4 new AD08R's for when the new wheels arrive :)

Also, I thought I'd try my hand at importing myself. Brought this Zenki over.

K's model
68k Miles
Genuine Rocket Bunny Kit
Work Seeker Wheels (11J all round)
V2 Air Suspension
SR20DET - 5 Speed Manual
Pearl White

Sold it to a local guy.

Looks damn cool but not my sort of thing.

I've also blown my 5th OEM 6-Speed up.

Yes 5th.

I'm now running a Low Mileage CD009 with a Brand New Nismo Twin Plate S14 Clutch Set Up.









The Box is great.

However it's a noisy t**t.
Just because of the backlash on the box due to running a Single Mass Flywheel as most CD009's are connected to a DMF.
Low RPM's there is box noise and a slight chatter from the Twin Plate but once you're moving it's golden.

The Mazworx kit was easy. Everything worked out fine.

Cutting the box was the only nerve racking part.

The shifter set up is GKTECH. It does what it says on the tin.

The box is punished and it's been 100% faultless.

AND I have new wheels.

It's been a while since I posted

ENKEI RPF1's

9.5 Rear's with 255 AD08R Tyres
9.5 Fronts with 235 AD08R Tyres

Can't remember offsets.

Fit well. Fronts rubbing a little on the front.

Guards rolled out a little all round.

Cheers dude.

I went with the GKTECH shifter set up due to it promising a much better location without having to cut the tunnel back so the Mazworx one can fit in.

To be honest I probably will change my shifter set up to a "SerialNine" one.

My GKTECH one rattles badly at high rpm and I have tried EVERYTHING to try and stop it but no luck.
