aluminum intake pipe with new couplers
10 row oil cooler
also ordered:
660cc injectors
Q45 throttle body
Z32 maf
tomei fuel pressure regulator
k&n air filter
took off the stock crap. and as everyone does i broke one of the studs.
good ol easy out.
got the coolant return and oil feed done
had to get the manifold rewelded as the turbo didnt fit
then painted it with high heat flat black paint.
well lookey here the stock oil drain pipe works perfect
also heres where i mounted my commander
and best for last i got the manifold and turbo together for the final test fit.
was also trying to figure out some i/c piping

bunch of fittings for catch can and oil cooler
Ok so for the first step this weekend. catch can
catch can parts list:
-1 3/4"npt pipe tap
-1 1/2"npt pipe tap
-2 3/4"npt to -12an 90 degree fittings
-4 -12an straight fittings
-2 -12an 90 degree fittings
-1 -12an weld bung
-3 -12an to 1/2"npt straight fittings
-2 meters of -12 nylon braided line
ok started off taking off the valve covers and threaded the back with the 3/4"npt pipe tap i bought then installed and Teflon'd the 3/4"npt to -12an 90 degree fittings
the 1/2"npt is one the right and 3/4"npt is on the left. these were not cheap to buy.
then started working on the catch can
drilled 3 holes and threaded with the 1/2"npt tap
teflon teflon teflon
bolted into place
i didnt have any washers so i figured 50yen would do
and now for the lines. man they were a ******* curse. i had to tape them and hold on to the nylon braided so it didnt slide down the hose when putting on the fitting. and oh ya i had to hold the tape with my teeth and push on the red part with my hands (ill post pics of the next one if you want)
heres most of the fittings:
one end on
taped the line with packing tape and checked where to cut:
cut the hose with hose cutters i bought
does a sexellent job of doing so. shows buying the right tool is best
one complete hose done
boom an hour later and second hose done
-12an weld bung gets welded here
and eventually will be connected as so (after welding)
that sums up today much more to come

update.
exhaust and turbo weekend.
so i finally arranged a full day with my cousin (welder) and we got my exhaust built.
after roughly 8 hours of fabbing and welding this is what we got
turbo elbow downpipe and screamer pipe all stainless all tig welded
now that those were made it was time to finally bolt down everything related to turbo
no pictures of the manifold to head gaskets but they are all new and sprayed with copper gasket all bolted down safely
next was new studs for the turbo. using two nuts they tightened up nice.
picture of the copper gasket spray i used. also the high heat gasket maker for the oil drain.
all sprayed up and ready for the turbo. had to cut one of the studs to clear the turbo
gasket maker on
painted with high heat paint and bolted up
turbo bolted on. new nuts and lock washers too
first v band on
both v-bands on and o2 and wideband o2 in
final pic
next update will be fuel and oil stuffRB25 Powered RWD GT-R
