Yeah I think that is what I will end up doing as ceramic coating is too expensive for my needs and wrapping makes them crack even more than normal!Originally Posted by jizzle

Thought about painting the manifold and elbow in some High temp?

Yeah its what Id do especially now theyre sand blasted, the paint will take to them well. now just to choose a colour... yellow?
Well the bay is going copper and the rocker cover is already Laguna seca blue. so was thinking of a nice bright silver for both manifoldsYeah its what Id do especially now theyre sand blasted, the paint will take to them well. now just to choose a colour... yellow?
Silver is safe and will look good mate. keep us posted with the progress!
Yeah I don't want too many different colours in there and will do.
Engine bay is fullly stripped and is getting a small rust hole welded up this weekend then will be getting painted! Can't wait!!
Just bought a Apexi Power FC ECU on ebay for £250 not too bad and should get some extra ponies out of it compared to the stage 3a chip
So this weekend I got the engine bay fully stripped and removed the wings ready for paint, also welded up the small hole in the arch.
My XTD lightweight flywheel arrived today too!
Also due to buying the Power FC which is mapped for a GT2871r and 740cc injectors I am selling my current set up for a T28r and 555cc injectors
Tried the wheels on the rear no they are tyreless to see how theu fit and was surprised only a small roll will be needed with a bit of tyre stretch

The power Fc arrived today!
Its currently mapped for a GT2871r turbo 740cc injectors, z32maf and fmic so I am changing my spec to match so have sold the 555cc injectors and in the process of selling the t28r. It was mapped at WGT performance to run 360bhp as a 'safe' map
Looking good mate! shame about the rust! at least its only outside there though.
Do you know what boost level the set up was on the Power FC map?
Yeah it could of been allot worse!
And no but i'm in the process of trying to find out
So today the front and rear crank seals arrived thanks to www.id-workz.co.uk/
Also the Nismo 740cc injectors arrived to replace the 555cc ones
Still trying to sell the turbo so I cab buy a gt2871r!
maybe you'll be able to sell it soon, mate. =)
p.s.- a t28r with 555cc and 1 bar (along with manifold, elbow, turbo back, intake and fmic), should be seeing the 330hp you had? (dont know which chip it is, 2, 2a or 3)...
My set up was t28r, 555cc injectors 1 bar, fmic, standard manifold and elbow then 3 inch HKS exhaust with a stage 3a Horsham chip and it ran 330bhp
So the block is painted! Aluminium silver, looks awesome and will go so well with the blue rocker cover and copper engine bay!

Great to see you building a solid one though. Gis a shout if you need a hand with anything - would love to see one built up properly
