can a misfire or back fire in the system trigger saftey boost
Well an internal misfire can mean dett. These cars suffer from issues on the dett sensor and harness that cause false alarms anyways.

Turbo oil seal leak :/
You would need a remap, as long as the engine is healthy no reason why not, they're not much bigger than stock.

Exhaust valves
I dunno why you just don't get a pair of resonaters welded in.

Turbo oil seal leak :/
Your probably looking around a grand in labour from a garage, up your end of the country zedworld is probably closest. Make sure you use a zed specialist, joe mechanic or billy jap car specialist will take longer and charge you more, as well as using your car as a test subject learning as they go. Most likely cocking it up in the process. The cost of the turbos, professional rebuilds are going to set you back about £400 a side, or you can buy brand new cores from the states for not much more, a slight upgrade to gt525 turbos is a smart move and very cost sensible.

Thankfully I think that sorta thing is dying a death, 10 years ago every kid with a Clio cords saxo etc half the thing was made of chicken mesh and fibreglass, you rarely see these kinda cars anymore.

Rear subframe question
Pretty sure some skylines have the na ratio r200, however they have a better quality diff and retain the 6 bolt drive shafts. It may even fit in the tt cradle. Expensive though, probably not worth it.

Auto to Manual implications
That's alright they're bloody useless, didn't vodka shots have a zed once which was a primera on the log book.

Auto to Manual implications
When I did mine the insurance company didn't care, as the car could be a manual from factory. They didn't class it as a modification at all.

Whats exactly needed in parts to convert tt to na rear
The flange that bolts the diff and prop up are different so not compatible, either use a full na prop for your either manual or auto box. Or have a one piece prop made. The diff ratio changes the speedo reading as the gear box is rotating quicker, it is the speed sensor on the box that gives the reading to the speedo, so changing the speedo will have no effect. Sadly the na and tt speed sensors arnt interchangeable either. I'm not sure how people have got round this. It's worth noting at any given speed you will be at higher revs due to the lower ratio.

Who can make this?
Defiantly photoshopped that white car, seen it before he has 89 spec lights, it's an na and goes sideways a lot!
-
Whats exactly needed in parts to convert tt to na rear
You need the whole rear assembly, the subframe is different to accommodate the diff, they arnt interchangeable. The half shafts and hubs are also different. There are still arms where the hicas was they are just fixed, much like a lock out bar. Your props haft will need alteration as well. Or you will need the correct whole na prop. The speedo will read wrong also.

my ams over flow tank
It's supposed to fit beside the battery without removal. The idea was that it is a header tank aswel as the zed doesn't have one. Where did you buy it from mate obv states, but z1 or ams directly.
