Nice! I love that manifold. That's the first time I've seen one like that.

TDF Manifold and Turbonetics 62-1 Turbo. :)
Our problem is going to be exhaust routing.

how about no exhaust?
Mr. Kidd
07-02-2007, 04:20 AM
manifold looks good! thats a 600whp setup if the motor can take it ( an i know it can cause i know whats done to it)
the DOwnpipe will be tough, but it can be done, prob have to take it to Dave to have him do it unless the one i give you will clear the steering rack.
Ive seen DPs in MUCH TIGHTER spaces, so its def possible. you guys will be happy with it!

:) :)
carinas car is gonna be so sick when its done

well thats def a diff setup. Can only imagine the pain in hte ass the exhaust work will be, but im sure ittl be worth it.

Decker
07-02-2007, 03:10 PM
I really want a 62-1 or I gt4088 ... I dunno. something that will give me about 600whp and have a nice quick spool up.

07-02-2007, 03:17 PM
t04r...... then you can be welcome by the club.

Thats funny. They have a club with everyone that has the same turbo. I might have to get one now.
v-empire
07-02-2007, 08:26 PM
they all dont have the same turbo. but its a bad ass turbo and its their claim to fame for their 600 to 1200whp supras.

Tyler that manifold is hot.....but after looking at that thing I'm thinking your going to have some interference problems with the core support/ radiator
v-empire
07-03-2007, 02:54 PM
lol.....oh rly?
nah. it should be good. you always work something out. all you have to do it make one that works. piping, routing...etc.
bend amd weld. done.
its hard for most coz they will be left clueless.
but once you get your hands dirty a little with fabrication, everything makes sense.
he should be fine. and while typing this, i smell poo poo coming from outside. wth!? let me go investigate. i am hungry.
s14unimog
07-03-2007, 03:00 PM
..... ok, so your on no talk now.
I realize that you can get inventive with your piping skills to avoid obstructions in the bay but when your turbo is half way thru your core support, its going to require a little more thought. Also its not all about cutting and welding. The core support is a structural member used to support more than a few things in the front of the car. So before anyone gets the sawz all out lets think a little bit. I would MUCH rather cut that piping down before even thinking about touching the car.
but at this point we are still at speculation, it may fit....
well i guess question to be asked now is if tyler bought that mani setup new or from someone that already had it in an s-chassis. If he bought it from someone used in an s-chassis then we KNOW it must be able to work somehow.
v-empire
07-03-2007, 03:09 PM
when bill and the team was designing this, we were just anxious to get started. because if we messed up, we can fix it. thought is only a process. it will be done.

nice pics. does a manifold that long create a noticeable increase in lag?
v-empire
07-03-2007, 03:14 PM
no.
it put down a shit load of torque (which it was designed for) and it uses and anti-lag turbo.
v-empire
07-03-2007, 03:17 PM
the last track it was tuned for 370 to the wheels and it worked out great. it came in first at limerock.
the previous track at VIR when it rained. it was tuned for 330 and it came in first also.
it has a baboon heart.

the manifold is off my S13 :
http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c21/Vteckidd/DSC04949.jpg
now my car is RHD, so it had no steering rack or column to mess with so it fit fine.
Carrinas(sp?) car is a USDM Left Hand drive so there will be a fitment issue. But, the DOwnpipe CAN be made. it can swing underneath the manifold an curve back towards the middle of the car.
Hell, if Dave got Nyteryders TOPMOUNT manifold an 3in DP to fit, anything is possible
it CAN be done, an its not near the core support
well there's my answer! nice setup. were there any issues with the turbo being that close to the radiator?
Mr. Kidd

ooo koool is that like an engine strut kinda thing?
like an engine brace
to
dampen
engine movement
without having super solids....
idk maybe im just dumb

Come on Tyler, you gotta get that thing back on the road! That engine has come a long way since I first saw it. About your exhaust issue, you could always pipe it out the hood... j/k. Or do a rhd swap. But I'm sure you got it figured out....

yea, that's what it is. an engine torque damper. Like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ENGINE-TORQUE-DAMPER-NISSAN-240SX-S13-SILVIA-RED-89-94_W0QQitemZ150137580604QQcmdZViewItem

hellfire
07-04-2007, 04:23 AM
Not in the car this motor is going in. Honestly, if we didn't have so many other peoples cars to get done, a car for drift would be done by now. We have everything for it, just not the time yet.
Oh, and James, the car has been on the road. Its probably been down for about a month now, but ever since we moved from the apartment it was running. :)

charles, i dont think they are qualified to run with the dogs yet. plus i dont think tyler is a good enough driver. we should get someone else to drive it.
i think carina would do better but anyways. we want it happened.

so a manifold like that increases torque? or is the turbo so damn big you needed to use the fan area as a spot for the cold pipe... where does the intercooler go? or is it gonna be water cooled...
im so confused...why cant we all just use a t25 and make our lives simple!
JJ Alfano
07-22-2007, 03:27 PM
i just realized, tylers sig stretches this forum every time, im running on 1024x768 and it bugs the hell out of me.
i opt for a vote ban effective immediatly.
by the way tyler, i fixed my motor, not a bad ring, just bad gaskets and a crossover wire.
