By all means give me a message

Alachi stuff its top notch, he did my roll cage for me! Very good quality.
Yeh the level of work looks great, and ive never seen such low prices for cages and stuff.

Last question.. (for now!) is there anywhere that does turbo manifolds for longitudinally mounted zetecs? or did you get a custom made?

cheers

His work really is good top notch too!

As for the manifolds; no, nothing easily availble. Mine is the custiom one Liam (with the blue Mk1 Zetec turbo 'Tina) had made by Simpson, but it was very expensive.

It's easy enough to adapt a normal one though, or use a 200SX manifold as they are cheap and can be adapted as the port spacing is near enough the same so a Zetec flange can be welded on. Use a late 200SX one though!

good to know, as ive seen 200sx tubular manifolds go for Ł100 max on ebay so no problem there. obv that depends how quick the cheapies are to crack tho lol.

Wish i was doing this conversions when liams broke his tina as i woulda had a lot of bits off him lol.

They seem to be alright for cracking if braced properly.

I was in exactly that position as Liam was breaking just as I was beginning to get parts together, so ended up buying as much as I possibly could which was lucky.

I was in exactly that position as Liam was breaking just as I was beginning to get parts together, so ended up buying his manifold, wastegate, screamer, hanger, injectors, flywheel, alternator kit, water rail etc...

It made it a little easier!
