Turbo Headers. Just 1 or 2 Questions.
hey guys listen up! i can tell you the best/easiest rout cos i have just been playing round for 3 months being the guinee pig! i my opinion!!!!!! get t28 tubs get smithy down pipes! yes they are alot longer but just means in the long run flanges are easier to get too, and just infront of gear box! you can then either buy late series 2 de-cats, or get a guy to custom your own spec! my set up is: 1) downpipe with 3 bolt flange, 2) pipes made to fit from 3 bolt flange along each side of gear box to a 2 bolt flange directly in front of cat 3) modify old cats(if required) with 2 bolt flanges at either end (directly as cats open into pipe work) 4) get straight pipes and or small silencer ipes with 2 bolt flanges at either end, so that come mot or track day all you need to change is short cat pipe! to make this easier i used sseries 1 de-cats and cut them up to reuse silencers and pipe work! sorry if im not explaining to well! if i post some pictures it will show how easy it eventuly was!!!!

engine removal!
thanks for the help people! ive got a 2=post ramp so should make it a lot easier, considered dropping the whole lot but didnt think the inlet manifold would pass between the chassis legs! does it? if so would be easier than taking box off then lifting engine!

engine removal!
where would you normally connect the engine craine to? cant see any lifting eyes at the moment! shouldnt have to remove inlet manifold should i??? what other parts should i provisionaly get? eg coolant and oil hoses etc thanks for the help guys :dance:

engine removal!
hi guys ive got a jap spec tt AUTO and am looking to remove engine to fit a pair of smithy's t28 hybrid tub's, would it be better to remove engine and gearbox, or split torque converter and just remove engine???? i have noticed a very slight amount of oil weeping from between eng and g-box, would this be the crank main seal starting to leak? is it worth worrying about?? any one like to take bets on how long this is gonna take me?? :hyper:
