I dont hate it. I love it.

As a matter of fact, you are giving me ideas for my next project. And the brackets, if I just saw those, I'd think they were bought that way, from a company.

Love it. looking great!

THANKS!!
I missed this reply. The brown ones are the 6-pin ones right? All that means is they're DPST, and usually 20/30 ratings also, but they switch two circuits at a time. Seriously, I'd replace them with 40A automotive relays @ ~$3/ea.

For big power stuff, I use high-inrush-current SPST relays from McMaster Carr (lately they've been supplying relays and harnesses made by Hella *the legit lighting company* made in Spain, good stuff!) - they're rated at 70 amps continuous, 80A for 1-minute intervals! Link - $13/ea, and you need the relay harness because the 87 and 30 pins are 3/8" wide spades, not the typical 1/4" quick disconnects. Link $5.

Thanks for the links, i will just end up some 40A auto relays, instead of te blue/brown nissan relays.

THANKS!!

LOL!!

got both the intake and exhaust manifolds mocked on to i can start getting the plumbing situated. Also have to find a new home for the oil filter base....unfortunatly it wont fit there with the Greddy IM




may have to build a new downpipe...this one came with the turbo from a user on here....personally i dont like the way it looks and i think i can build one that will give me a little more room around the BMC

Thanks!!!

so since i have been building all the AN lines i needed to figure out a way to clean them properly. so i ended up building this little device



Just need to get another -6 AN fitting so I can clean out the fuel lines

Also got my fittings welded on for the power steering reservoir and the fitting on the pump.







Then I acquired this guy….but I gotta get the other side…..anyone have the intake side to this guy please let me know.



Thanks!!
