Hey guys and gals I hate to be the bearer of bad news but did anyone else notice that shes using an SS autochrome manifold? Thats pretty dangerous if you ask me. If you look inside the collector of the manifold it is nasty. where the pipes come together they are all jagged and weld mess all over the place. Not to mention along every weld on the runners if you feel inside the runner there is so much slag inside its unreal. If you can take a pic of the collector and post it up I curious if they are all the same. Dont take this as a flame it is far from that. I am only expressing concern. when I saw those manifolds I thought to myself " Man I wonder what would happen if a piece of metal broke off inside the runner and went into my turbo."
check it out and post a reply Jason Oh almost forgot Awesome Car! Kudos Girl :) |

how much do you think it all cost you for everthing.
and if you had some one do all the engine work what do you think it would cost you. going to do it to my mk3, but dont know how much its going to set me back. my paint is in ok just some bad paint here and there. also i love everthing that you have done to the car. keep posting some more pics |
you and another female in Clublexus.com forum have inspired me. I am no longer letting anyone work on my car(except the engine swap) I am not mechanically inclined but I will try... thanks.. and the car is looking good.

Awesome job...love the car...that oil cooler? is that a intercooler radiator from an all trac? if not it looks identical to the one i pulled from my parts car that i will be using as an oil cooler also....great job...hope it performs up to your expectations
|
Thanks ya'll :)
Um.. I have 3 oil coolers, to which are you referring lol. The one on top of my intercooler is an ebay special which i use as my secondary transmission cooler. I have a jza70 power steering cooler as the stock steel tubes just weren't enough for me and the square one is my actual engine oil cooler which is factory from a Mitsubishi Pajero :) The car is definitely living up to my expectations so far :D Didn't expect the no traction thing tho haha... it's still fun tho :) |
WOW just wow!
