cool ill check it out

 

I just thought of a question....when you were talking about the studs from a pathfinder, do those go into the manifold and bolt it to the adapter plate? Are they welded on or just bolted through? then the same question for the turbo side of the plate. Thanks

 

Depends on what kind of plate I am making.. I do studs on the top side on all of them. The studs get drilled and tapped into the plate, then screwed in.

The bottom side can be different, really depends on which turbo.

I think if you re read my article, its pretty clear on where the studs are.

my bro in law got me a plate from his work but its only 1/2 in thick, what do you guys think, will it work

 

itll work, mine is 5/8" thick

 

hee hehe man i cant wait, ill hopefully get that done in my shop class tonight. now i just need to get my car smogged before i drop the turbo kit and boost the hell out of my hatch!

 

well i just want to show everyone the progress on my homemade adapter plate, looks rough but it is progressing. my bro in law drilled the holes and we tapped them. then we took the plate to muffler lshop and they torched out the center section and the notch they did it for 5 bucks. now i just need ot grind out the center and smooth everything out. slowly but surely hee hee. http://hondaswap.com/gallery/viewima...30821919cb.jpg
