    Therein what I've seen it's a case of... Top mount manifold, adapter to change flanges, longer braided lines, custom downpipe, custom inter cooler pipe work and sorting out the intake as the afm is too close to the tubby.

    Not sure what else is involved.

    Bit of progress on the manifold today with help from my dad

    Drilling out the old studs using his mill and casing out the original threads









    Quick vid of skiming the face

    Small update. Car is all back together and running great, apart from Vvt rattle and slipping aux belts but that's no biggy

    I've now had a chance to test the launch control and rltc out a bit more and it's brilliant the speed that the car takes off at now with the launch control is impressive and with the tc set to 15% slip it allows me to have a bit of fun but not end up in a hedge

    Also fitted a trs tow strap to the rear and got a longer one for the front on its way



    Also found a pic of my car taken on route to japfest

    Test fitted a 12j et20 rota GTR-D at the south west/Rare Rims BBQ today to see how it looks.





    Don't think I'll bother

    You need to stop offering them to me, I'm not doing it.... It would look epic but no....... probably!

    Haha they might not be wide enough anyway. You'll have to do a Ken with them.

    Would have to be +50mm fenders at least.

    12j wheels look lost in 50mm over fenders unless they are 0 offset. So you will still need spacers I've found with the offsets they come in.

    30mm overs would be perfect for a nice fit.

    I've just noticed too that the manifold you have is a twin scroll. What manifold
    Is it?

    It's an h-dev one. Based on a tomei one iirc Et0 is an option with the gtr d

    Won't do it though as the money could be used better else where.

    I think they are 50's, the poke looked more when I looked but as MD says looking again you'd need something to make them flush with the arch. I'd say spacers on the ET20 though. Then you could get the exact fit you wanted.

    Oooh I'm liking the fitment of those 12j's, It gives me hope that I could squeeze them under my arches, but must resist!

    Just out of interest what offset were those ones? et20?

    Yep those were et20 so only the tame ones

    I'd love to fun them but don't fancy messing with my arches.

    I say go for the 12" wide and overfenders, haha.

    Cheers Aj

    Cheers mate

    It's tempting but I really can't justify the expense. Would cost a fortune and I'm saving for a house
