Sounds cool- I like the charge pipe routing it's alot cleaner than mine-only thing I guess the supra intercooler isn't a very good one though.

It's a little better than the stock SMIC, for 13 psi from a stock turbo through it. The main reason we used it was because of the ease to route the charge pipes just like a smic. We're actually about to be upgrading to a 24x12x3 fmic.

Thats cool, mine is a 9" because of the Silvia front end conversion, but seems to work fine. Too bad nobody makes a aftermarket IC with both the fittings on one end and a divided end tank so we don't have to put up with the goofy pipe routing. I just got another RB20 engine for parts I'm thinking of making a custom upper manifold like a GTR style.

Looks nice, and i bet you guysll get that 400 easily. I like the widebody fenders on the silvia converted 240, are they custom made or can i order a pair somewhere?

How much was the mount kit and where did you get it from?

We sell the mount kits for 350 shipped, they are CPP's mounting kit, we don't use the r32 crossmember in our swaps. The wide body fenders on the converted silvia are from AIT Racing, but they are meant for a coupe, and our customer wanted us to mold them to the HB body, so it's almost a 100mm wider.
