Hey lamb you see the video on YouTube with how much movement they have type in something like plazmaman clamp movement or something like that.

Hey lamb. Nah engine rubber mounts. The radiator is rubber mounted at bottom but I thought same thing as you with plazmaman clamps but they allow so much movement. I reckon you get more movement with these than silicone.

Took all day to get the lower 4 link bar in with brackets, all level with car and centered, measure 5 times weld once. Jobs like this wish i had a hoist, I will get one soon, it was so hard to get in/ under this car to weld it in.

Got some parts, thanks to Brisbane fuel injection for the intake, serious if anyone needs any good upgrades then check the shop out, good prices too. But doesn't the intake tb and fuel rail look hot or what. Also mcdonald bros racing sent out the triangualted 4 link parts but had to get different brackets so have started to piece it together. In the photo I just made some 3mm plates up for the chassis and had to modify the tail shaft loop as it was too low do cut a section out and tig it back together to make it sit higher on car. There isn't much room to run these bars but will get some more done later. Going to get some more plazmaman clamps and adapter for this bosch tb and do cold side piping then it's whatever next

Hey what ever happened to this weapon

Hey man. Yea it's such a old school turbo. I don't think they are really popular as don't see greddy used much but I'm a big fan and always wanted to use one of these. Best thing its new genuine from Japan but I've had it 8 years now. Keen to see what it makes.

Just a quick finish of hot side of intercooler tonight.

So far only got 2.5in clamps thats arrived so chopped my turbo abit of welded a bend and clamp flange on it. Waiting on some 2.5in tube and 2.75 tube then need some 2.75 clamps. Cost alot but nice. If anyone wants to sponsor me for parts haha.

I got some crap done on the coupe today. Got the drivers seat in, yes I did sit in the car pretending I was driving and got the wife in too, she didn't give a #OOPS# to sit in it but it's a boy thing.
Also pulled out my perfectly good maddat crossmember and chopped the mounts off in 4 bits and actually just spun them all around and welded back on and sits exactly the amount I needed with moving engine back yo suit recessed firewall. What a fluke. I'm not going raceworks intercooler clamps now as havnt actually turned up so got some plazmaman ones coming. I got alot to do in engine bay so might muck around with exhaust dump pipe now, 3in or 3.5in not sure yet.
