It really doesent need much to clear. I used the crank to check clearances. I will post up a quick video writeup on notching in car soon. Have had this build going on forever cause I have been taking my sweet time on it. came out nice and runs great so far. Now I need to mount the coola and get the rest of the piping done.

Ahhh, sweet dump tube. What did you use to notch the block. I'm sure it's fine and all, but that looks not notched enough, but I'm sure camera angles are decieving. Little bit of EJ8 love. I dig, brother......I dig. Get a hone in that or just start throwing them in? Just curious because a mild build like this looks fun for 275whp and some 12sec passes on streets. One other thing, let me think....oh yea, the oil pump on Y8's kinda suck and have been known to cause oil starvation or atleast there is a threat of it.

Thank you man thank you. Yeah the pics of the notching are very shitty. They are notched alot more than it looks. Also the Girdle will have to be notched as well ladies!! I did hone out the cylinders a bit though.. After I took the pics I posted.

The car looks great.
The piping and manifold look like ebay specials..
Did you cut out the bumper support or running without it?

I got this from some other JDM store bullshit.. Pretty much the same thing as ssautochrome.. It was about $200 bucks or so.. They hold up sometimes. The key is to not have them have any compressor surge, oil restrictor, and hope the kid who built it was over the age of 7.. (which makes him a expert in china)..

Yes piping and mani both ebay special. The piping is pretty thick though. Not typical bullshit made out of 10 layers of aluminum foil.. The bumper support had to go.. Im not even going to bother cutting it and ------- with fitment when its going to be useless with the huge intercooler in the middle of out.. ------- thing was heavy too. Nice to get rid of some of that weight. Since im putting a good 50 pounds of ---- on the car with the turbo.
