Re:ADAPTER PLATE

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

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

Re:ADAPTER PLATE

Mine is 3/4" thick and Jeff laughed at it..

My adapter plate just has some girth.

Re:ADAPTER PLATE

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
