I'm Running a 40mm HKS external Gate from Tubular 3-2-1 manifolds.

I kept cracking cast oem manifolds and had to make something better, Even when i had a standard manifold i had it modified to take the external waste gate.

No Worries sharing Yep its correct the 87 has the 250mm clutch, might be best to take all of the parts to Tony in person. The man is amazing he is like the Clutch yoda and seems to know every part number in his head. Once he see's it I'm sure he will be able to match something up similar to what ive...

Have you looked into Rapid Performance in Timaru for tuning you nistune ?

Its a bit frustrating from nzefi to not want to tune nistune, they sold and offered nistune for a very long time.

nistune is very capable , its just missing some features from newer ecu's

Hi Mate I'm one of the few on here with a Modified Z31 The Difference in the lower intake manifolds is quite different so they wont bolt up, In theory it could be done with a thick enough adapter plate I have been working in with DJZ on here to design a better performing plenum for a Z31. There is q...

If you planning on using that LSD to do some hard driving I would highly recommend an ATB unit, I have been using Quaife helical centres without a diff cooler without any failures, yet the R200 plate diffs seemed to need constant repair and replacement. Andy speaks the truth, but they are quite alr...

They are the same case, i have put an R180 CLSD guts into an Open housing for DJZ for one of his projects.

there is a bit of a trick to getting the carrier out of the housing but otherwise its just a normal diff build setup.

I'm of no experience on such a new Z But two biggest handling upgrades i ever did were Corrected Roll center to account for vehicle lowering and a proper clutch limited slip diff. Chances are the springs are already well matched to the chassis by Nismo, and a strut brace might not make much differen...

Hi Coolyo I am also interested in your services but in christchurch, Mines mostly a Z33 but not quite... More like a PY50 FUGA. I see there is a Russian guy on you tube who can do it. But the communication issues make me somewhat reserved about doing it. There are also other Kiwi's on NICO with FUGA...
