haha Might be possible if I weren't going away for a few days over easter. Should have some time to play around a little - at least clean and paint all those parts on Monday. Maybe add a leaf to the springs as well.
I know a lawyer who would tell you to contest that - don't let them get away with that rubbish! Unfortunately, I think he only says that because he's of the opinion that the money is better in his pocket than in the govt coffers... either way, it costs us plebs! But you can try a letter - didn't work for me, but apparently some people get fines cancelled that way.

I'm not splitting them mate. If you just want a Rowland manifold, you can try them directly in South Africa - they have a website.

I'll also put the Rowland big bore oval port manifold and 32/36 up for sale $450 Complete from throttle linkage to air filter. Runs great. If it sells first, I'll fix up the Hitachis myself and run on them until I do the L16 conversion.  Attach file:

SOLD: Lynx crossover single sidedraught manifold with 40mm DHLA Dellorto. These were only made to suit round port heads as far as I know. This one has been cut and shut with a stock A14-15 oval port manifold flange. It is missing the studs, soft mounts and filter, so it's just the manifold and carb as pictured $330
 No longer for sale - both other manifolds sold so I'm going to use these A14T "GX" twin 38mm Hitachis. Manifold has been sand blasted. In pieces. Just as you see them in the picture. Missing throttle shafts, throttle plates and linkages, as well as the pollution bits - ready to be blanked off. Would suit buying a cheap set of L series Hitachis (they're the same 38mm Hitachi carb) to put on this manifold and use the A series needles & springs from these carbs in them. $250

Hardest part of the conversion might be tracking down another late model auto 120Y sedan to steal the diff and tailshaft out of...
woohoo! Found a late model auto sedan being wrecked on Facebook in Brisbane. Picked up the big Borg Warner diff, auto tailshaft to fit the L series box and another set of leaves to make up a stiffer set. Also scored a rust free bonnet. Brendan who bought the 2dr sedan gave me some of the spares back to help out: Stanza 63A 5spd, the 260Z King springs which were good for road use with the L series conversion, and a bunch of other stuff he's replaced in the 2dr: speakers and mp3 amp, gauges etc. Top bloke!

You don't mess around! When you said big cam, you meant BIG cam! lol
Very interesting thread mate - great stuff!
Having played around with mild, low boost carby turbo A12s years ago, the basic setup's power is no surprise to me, but the bigger boost E85 numbers are mind boggling on a stock A12 small port head and that puny manifold! Unreal :)

Wound the boost up a little with Ziggy here yesterday. Just to 24Psi. it made 136.3Kw and 118Nm. We also set up a pressure sensor in the turbo manifold to check it V's inlet manifold pressure. The exhaust manifold pressure is 4.5Lb less than inlet pressure all the way through the range(once boost comes on).
This pressure differential gives me confidence to put a hotter cam in it. It cost $160 for cam and followers to be reground and $70 for new double springs. $250 all up, includes gaskets to do the job. I have it all here, so will swap them over when I get a chance.
I reckon the stock inlet will hold you back on any gains from the cam - that's downright unnatural pressure differential! I assume these figures are at the engine? You might have to go into business on your 71 series boxes to A banger conversions mate! lol With the cost of A series 5spds, it might even be viable?

weighbridge says it weighs 815kg with 1/2 tank. 25kg more than the 2dr sedan did when it was stock. 2dr sedans were the lightest model - no carpets, radio, clock, tach etc. Not too bad a weight penalty for all those luxuries and style! :)
