[Frontbumfab]

few more pics

[rusty_nail]

wow you really ruined that driveshaft!!!

[Frontbumfab]

wow you really ruined that driveshaft!!!

yeah sure did, drove up a big ledge just lost traction and fell on the shaft and rear arms and this happened, lucky my mate seen it and told me to stop haha,made it out of there enough to pull the shaft and drive home front wheel drive. all in good fun

[Frontbumfab]

also dont buy cheap steering wheels! it was abit wild driving home with this

[BigRAWesty]

so is the twin in yet or still in build stages.. what HP you recon you'll get? And what turbo setup is that??? skyline or something?

[Frontbumfab]

still building stages mate. turbos and dump are all bolted in. the turbos are straight off a 1jz. not sure on hp but turbo tb42s usually go pretty good. they boost up at 1100 rpm on the 2 litre so it will be interesting to see how it goes. real small turbos but theres 2 of:bananadancing:

[BigRAWesty]

bugga me.. there is a set with joining manifold for $200 on ebay atm...:icon_bonk: (edit, located in miami...)
cheap as..
ill be watching with interest.. twin turbo TD42 anyone???

and not to down a sweet project, coz you do look like a welder by trade, but i hope your using the thinnest pipe. normal water pipe will crack threw the welds as it heats so slowly, you need it to heat up all at the same time..
Normal cast manifolds don't have this issue because there cast.. And many after marked manifolds are stainless..

[Frontbumfab]

Yeah thats about what i paid for mine with a dump pipe to fit a celica and other bits. The bloke didnt know what to say when i told him what they were going on. Yeah my mate was told the same thing when he made his manifold he had a 4.5 gu turbo. And its steam pipe we ordered in not just any old water pipe out of the shed. He used to have his red hot and go through creek crossings. Never cracked ever. So guess we will just see haha. :confused::cool:

[BigRAWesty]

Yea fair call.. you may be right as you have a bit of length to each pipe. I thing the biggest culprits are the manifold hugging headers which are just steam pipe preformed bends and T's welded together.. so not much room for expansion..

But yea, cool...:cool:

Yeah thats true. Well we will see. You can say i told you ao if it does end up cracking :D

Any heres my bars i paid 500 for both. Bit rusty but when i send them to the sandblaster and give them a coat they should look sweet. And my sliders my mate made for me.

Plate welded onto the chassis and bolts to that. He had the same setup on his and had the whole weight of the car on them and they never budged. My sills are already rooted also haha. Yeah i love the rear one.

[Frontbumfab]

Just because i keep refering to my mates old car

[BigRAWesty]

[Frontbumfab]

Yeah it was pretty good. There 40' creepys on 17' rims haha. Wild set up but worked so well.
Mounted my intercooler tonight and little cooler for the power steering. Going to mark out and cut holes for the piping later too

[BigRAWesty]

remember plenty of pics....

Wasn't that for sale from a while ago in Sussex Inlet

[Frontbumfab]

Yeah mate it sure was.

[Ben-e-boy]

Yeah mate it sure was.

So I take it you are from that area.
I was born and raised in the Shoalhaven, left there nearly 9 years ago

[Frontbumfab]

Yep, live in tomorong at the old moto farm house at the moment. Straight out the back gate and into great tracks

Nice, I haven't driven those tracks, or Yawal for that fact. It's on my todo list though

[Frontbumfab]

Yeah the power line track behind the house pretty good. And can get to yalwal and other tracks with only short drives on actual roads. Got a diesel 4runner cheap the other week and went all the tracks. Good fun haha

[Frontbumfab]

What ignition should i run???

[BigRAWesty]

Something sealed... The biggest issue I see with all petrol 4bys is water in the coil packs and then there no bang..
So don't cheap out here..
As for brand.. I'm a diesel man sorry.. :p

Mate im running pentronix in mine and its loves water its a TB42. It had points before and what a hassle.

[Frontbumfab]

Yeah im thinking pertronix ingnitor 2 and the flamethrower coil. Get rid of the points and its needed for the turbo i think

[Frontbumfab]

Quarter chop! im about to have a go at it. any special spot it should be cut? illbe welding the bottom plate in too. not the stupid silicon and rivet job.

[Ben-e-boy]

Have a search, there's a thread with some good photos. Oh yeah just watch the swearing

[threedogs]

Got mods on it to delete
Dont need it nuff said

[BigRAWesty]

1/4 chop is quite easy. If you buy the pre cut ones from eBay then follow there instructions..
If doing it yourself the cut where ever.. leave about 10mm to form a lip and fold it under before welding.. itll make welding it so much easier..

[Frontbumfab]

Yeah sorry about that. Yeah im going to do it myself. Im just not 100% if theres an exact spot to cut. Or fold. Pretty much just under the body line i guess. I wasnt going to worry about folding a lip. Ill just tack the plate on all the way around and grind it back and give it a paint. Bit of silicon on the inside should be sweet

[threedogs]

Idea , get a compressor from a set of red airhorns and set in down via a needle valve of some description .
drill small hole in side of dizzy and silicon hose in it. Just hit the switch just before water hazzard and pressurize
Dizzy with small psi and hit the water should keep dizzy water free, There used to be a product out a while back
that you sprayed all over dizzy Cant recall name but sales guy took top off my dizzy big Accel number on 350 chev
Threw in cup of water closed it and told me to hit the start button. Blow me down started and never farted once

Ive seen people set up an airline from a locker compressor to their dissy. They put a restricter so it only runs a constant 2 or 3 PSI which gives the dissy a positive pressure and stops water getting in. Too much mucking around for me, plus i dont have a compressor setup.

Cheers mate! Im getting excited. Been looking at fittings all night. Have to join the 2 small hard lines on the turbos to the heater hose. Think ive got it sorted tho. Picked up beadlocked 15x10s with flipped centers with Negative 70ish offset for the swampers. Grills finished. Bars are getting blasted. Made a plate to fit the gas filler in the original filler hole. Stuffs getting done!

[Frontbumfab]

This one makes me wish i never sold these tyres! Drove around the pillar and didnt slide off haha.

[Frontbumfab]

Sorted put the water lines. Going mad with fittings haha

Bloody red hoses. All done tho. Just have to oil now and im going to buy an instal kit for the 1jz and add fittings to adapt it.

good build to follow man. such a good stable of boggers

[Frontbumfab]

Update time. Going down a different path. Anyone interested in all my stuff? Two tb42s one with tge water flow head work and my twin turbo one. Both come with all bolt ons. Ill throw in my gearbox and transfer. Two gas tanks. Gas research throttle body too.

[threedogs]

and that path would be ??????????????????????????????


Old thread and all that, but using an old air horn pump and pressurize
your dizzy you may need to fit a flow controller as only a few psi required

[BigRAWesty]

What. Was really looking forward to seeing this come together..
So yea what's your plans??

[Gu777]

Awesome rig great photos

[Frontbumfab]

Update. I mean lack of. Nothing has happened with this in ages and christmas holds everything up. Getting back on here to get myself keen again. Considering rebuilding another tb i have just a freshen up with the head with the water flow work and single turbo. What is the best size? And has anyone lifted there gas tank and or made a thicker bash plate for it? Pics would be good. Cheers

Ow about bloody time. Was thinking you had shot thru..
Guess you've sold the twin stuff??

[Robo]

Did ya manage to sort the twin set up yet ?.
twin supra turbo's are a sequential arrangement ?.
or are you going another direction as said ?.

[NissanGQ4.2]

As requested mate, the thread name has been changed

Cheers

[Frontbumfab]

Been a whole year not much has happened, works been slow and family stuff to deal with but im going round 2 now got stuff sorted. going single turbo, thinking of getting a rb25 manifold and cutting the flange and making a tb one fit, trouble is finding a stainless patrol exhaust flange,
yeah twins are sold, turbos were goin to be too small would of run out of puff heaps early, still have the manifold tho if someone wants to try it on a td, would work well i think.
