    More works Done!

    Tho lots more works to do

    As most know, unless ur buying crazy priced, well engineered s/s low mount manifolds, there is little... if anything..! to be gained from buying cheap s/s knock off manifolds for RB20/25 engines.

    With this, and the turbo setup in mind..! Iv chousen the very itchy job of heat wrapping my standard Nissan manifold.
    Now if anyone is going to do this for myselves PLAN it out first, cut a section and see how ur going to do every bit step by step n take a photot to remind you,

    Kinda like this!!!!







    Also u will notice half way through i coped it might be a good idea to wear gloves





    After lots of glass all over the place you will end up with something like this!



    And it would be rude not too!!!



    (heard soaking the heat wrap in water first also works better but it was very messy)

    Another tip ya might find usefull is clear hi-temp paint is good for sealing the wrap when its finished also stops its front getting all fluffy.


    On the hunt for a nice RB20 fuel rail, as with most "Nice RB20 bits" there not all that easy to come by, so bit the bullet and sigh'ed.... that i wasnt gona paying crazy money for a lump of ally with some holes in it (Agian cough: Plazmaman!) no matter how tempted i was.

    But but recken i made the most of what it with a bit of elbow grease...



    Also as "Cefiro Panch" menshioned these plazmaman inlets manifolds are hardly cheap n i was a bit (only a small bit) anoyed to find that the Idle valve barcket that was weld'd in such away that caused it to warp,
    Ok its always gona happen but you'd think Plazmaman would have sorted this before sending it? Just a taut and a bit of a rant but that life!!!!

    hahah iv little to be worrying about!!!!

    So ended up having to glue bits of sand paper to a straight and square block of wood, to get the bracket back straight n true...!



    Last job for now was to sort out the lower runner of the Inlet manifold

    I thought you were meant to soak the heatwrap in water then apply it so when it dries out it becomes more taught


    Thats what I do anytime I heatwarp anything. Bit sloppy and messy in places but keeps it all there and it doesn't come loose
