i got my shipment of all my parts from Motovicity
-Walbro 400 LPH fuel pump
-Cuzco Catch Tank
-lots and lots of Reflect-a-gold lol
-Titanium manifold wrap
-All my Vibrant T-Bolt clamps

-Installed the Walbro 400 LPH
-wrapped the LIM
-wrapped/installed the fuel rail

 

THE MANIFOLD IS HERE!!!


i was lucky enough to get a super rare find of an authentic RE-Amemiya Twin Turbo manifold!! and this thing is a beauty!!

only a handful of these manifolds exist and were made by Amemiya-san himself, so I'm going to be real careful with this piece :icon_tup:

all i have to do now is modify the waste gate piping to work with the twin waste gates that i'll be running

NO MORE WORDS I SHOW YOU PICTURES!!

 

so finally a fitment shot

i guess because this mani was on an RHD car the fitment is a bit different than on my LHD FD

the top flange was resting perfectly against the body of the car so we ended up having to cut that pipe to reposition it...its an easy fix but because the metal shop out here isn't getting their inventory refitted until monday it'll have to wait till then

but check it out guys, this is basically what she'll look like *dont mind the super precision turbo fitment tool in between the two turbos*




got the turbos setup in the car now

had to modify the manifold a bit to accommodate the twin waste gates i'll be running
so now we just need to build the downpipes
then we can fit in the waste gates
build the intercooler piping and she'll be ready to start up

and don't pay attention to the direction of the turbo outlets...i still have to position then properly for feed into the intercooler

pics!

 

the turbo setup is done!!!!

they will be dropping in on monday, hopefully starting up next weekend

this thing is so pretty...

oh and check out how amazingly my fabricator polished the 4" transition!!! i couldn't believe it, the thing looks like its chromed!!

also did a walk around video for you guys, just click on the last image and it'll load the video




enjoy!

 

finally gave her a wash and wiped down under the hood and interior after 4 months!!!

the FD really is one of the best looking cars every made...

 

got my Greddy Type R blow off valve today

this thing is massive!

much bigger than my old Blitz unit...and it'll flow a lot more!

 

Tony from Stitched Productions also stopped by to get some footage for the build movie!

 

just picked up a Car Make T&E Vertex Steering wheel for Roxy!!! I'm so excited...i've always wanted one of these!!

 

its finally Roxy's turn at the body shop!

had to get in there and try on the parts...i can't wait!!
