It's an XS Power manifold.

A brace is being made at the minute.

**SilviaS13** · 13-08-2007, 12:07

What engine mounts are they? Where from?

They make everything rattle & shake a lot and the ally spacer didn't come with them, but they may not be necessary. I added the spacer because they dropped the engine too low compared to std mounts and I'd already had my exhaust d'pipe made.

**SilviaS13** · 13-08-2007, 12:14

On CA18DE (no turbo) i have already got through 2 standard mounts. I hate to think what it will be like with SR20DET in there. I shall be getting some of those i think.
Is there a UK supplier- think i might of seen one before.

**Jezz_S13** · 13-08-2007, 12:15

don't think there's a UK supplier, it looks like they make them thereselves.

I paid £44 all in to my door.

**SilviaS13** · 13-08-2007, 12:16

very good price. I will get some ordered up. Cheers

Yetiboy has just sent me a picture.

**Pete C** · 21-08-2007, 13:03

Oooo, must be time for spraying soon?

**Jezz_S13** · 21-08-2007, 13:07

Tomorrow, I'm told.

**Pete C** · 21-08-2007, 13:15

Double ooo

Going to be black, I take it?

**Jezz_S13** · 21-08-2007, 13:18

Naturally.

I have some more pictures, looks more like a car, less like a skip now.

Respect to Jonny!

Some from before...

Some now... (please ignore the remainder of the Parachute attached to the rear wheel, infact ignore the wheels altogether, they're it's work boots.

)

**Jez** · 29-08-2007, 17:37

looks great

**Pablo13** · 29-08-2007, 18:34

Nice job!

**RTLKyuubi** · 29-08-2007, 21:06

That looks very nice in black! What thickness pipe did you use to make the rear strut bar thing

**Pete C** · 30-08-2007, 07:43

Excellent, good progress, can't wait to see the finished result

JC · 30-08-2007, 08:07

Looking good Jezz

,I'm really looking forward to seeing photo's of it when its all back together

**Jezz_S13** · 30-08-2007, 08:16

Cheers guys; as for looking forward to seeing it, me too!

The rear brace thing is made of the same material as the main hoop of the rollcage, IIRC it's 1.5" Dia with 2.5mm wall thickness.

**Richy_Boy** · 30-08-2007, 08:17

Lovely to see the full life story of these projects... it makes me want to strip mine to bits and rebuild it for the hell of it

Well done lads
