GT35R Here I come! :D
Contact Glen over at www.azrotaryrocket.com. He carries the LIM in stock I believe.
Hey Atihun,
The lower Intake manifold on your car is a Ground Zero Intake correct, I was interested to know what price these are, as Im in New Zealand, they have a website but no email address etc to contact them on, your help would be greatly appreciated, congrats on a great build, on of the better engineered cars of seen.
Cheers, Mark

Oh no seriously?
Crispy, do you have a link you could share of the part out? Or anyone that knows for that matter?
I dont know why I would want to see the carnage, but I followed his progress religiously, so I am interested.
Sorry to hear this atihun! I hope to move on to better things.
You did such an admirable job, one of the cleanest I have seen, always jealous of your attention to detail, craftsmanship and aesthetic choices

yep guilty as charged
atihun gave a me a great deal on it and my original intention was to keep it but the car's build was not track friendly. Basically very difficult to get to anything that would need repair, tightening etc.....
It was sold as a very nice rolling chassis that found a good home as a 20b donor car.
I still have the V-mount setup FS which is truly one of a kind. Price is 2k firm or it'll just go in one of my cars down the road.
So it's been a bit since I've posted some updates, but I've found out some things that may help others.
1. Don't use ss braided lines to the turbo, they transfer quite a bit of heat through the aluminum fittings and stainless wrap. If you do, make sure to shield them (very well). I found that one side the hose inside got so brittle that it started to leak slightly. Lucky I found this out while I was putting everything back together.
4. Turbo blankets fall apart. Quicly. I decided to replace it with a custom Inconel heat shielding. They made a shield for the exhaust manifold, all the way around the turbo, the downpipe, and even one for the wastegate. It doesn't hold in as much heat as a blanket, but I think that is better for the longevity of the turbo.
Here's the dyno after switching to the SMB:
Here's some pics of the hose re-routing and the turbo shielding:

I really need to get that heat shielding though!
