anyone else have any more pictures?

Check out your yellow pages - there should be plenty of industrial places that will do that for you, and probably pretty cheap too

i would personally sand blast the surface

anyone have experience with this? http://www.hirschauto.com/acb/showdetl.cfm?&DID=27&User_ID=446358&st=1861&st2=-357225706&st3=71959200&Product_ID=12&CATID=1 I'm going to give it a go on my rusted HKS dragger system and see what happens.

this is for front facing intakes - i see you are referring to the stock style. My piping routing is going to be exactly the same as tissimo's.

thanks for the pics - just one question, is it possible to run the piping without any sheet metal removal, or was it pretty much necessary?

This is for guys with front facing intake manifolds on either engine who have not re-located their batteries and have the large, ebay-style (24x12x3ish) intercoolers. I would like to see some pictures of your intercooler pipe routing as it exits the intercooler. Shots from above would be cool...

if you are looking for longevity of your subframe, opt for carbon steel. Google "galvanic corrosion" or "galvanic series" to find out why.

damn, that adds an extra day to the trip...through SLC is ftw.

we could make a Canadian convoy...

if I manage to get the car in one piece by that time, I will be there.

:runaway:

expense, complexity, and additional weight. That is the answer.

agreed. I found that in addition to the grinding wheels, get a high quality de-burring bit and use it after you have cut off as much of the cam bolt as possible. It cuts through the metal ridiculously fast.

Is everybody that is doing the large side to side intercoolers removing the battery and running the piping through there? If anybody is running the piping the 1jz route to a FFIM (between the rad and motor, not through the battery location)could I get some pics of the arrangement of the...

well, the first thing to do would be get a new block...and start from there. Surely there are a few kickin' around in junkyards. If not, give me a month to get back to canada and you can come pick up the extra NA block I've got laying around...for a nominal fee of course.

ian, what thermal coating did you apply to the intercooler? I recall you said what you used in an old thread, but I don't recall.

no holes anymore!

Basically do anything that will make the hole go away... Driving my car in the rain resulted in an incredible amount of water being drawn in to the space between the rear quarter panel and the frame (where the antenna sits) as well as somehow managing to flood the side frame rails... here was...

You poor bastard. You can see the same thing in my build thread...gaping holes like that on either side. At last check there was one inner well left in north america, I got the remaining outer wells for my car. Best way to go would be to get someone in the southern rust free states with a...
