A good mate of mine who has a ute put some Hyundai excel seats in his and looked sweet and were functional so I did source some and just got one in this arvo. Not bad I think and comfy. Bloody small car haha not much leg room but less leg room for the rear. Lucky im not 2m tall.

had to cut off the exhaust manifold turbo flange and rotate it as turbo hit the strut tower due to engine being back alot. Done the intercooler pipe to engine but only got 3inch silicon joiners so have to order couple 2.5in ones as turbo compressor is 2.5 anyway.

Hi cadet1200 i bought it from a guy. It was a custom ARE cooling setup made like 20years ago and if you Google ARE dataun 1200 ca18det something like that and images you might find a pic or go to there website and will find some old pics. I wish i had a plazmaman manifold as they neat as. I've been so busy with new house, moving setting up shed pool etc etc. No money or time for this project but back to it now.

I want a plazmaman plenum but can afford one so made a intake manifold today, it's rough but a quick job and a 68mm ford mustang $50 ebay special tb . Havnt used the tig in 5 years but was good to rip it out.
