    Cut 1 coil out of rear springs, really want to get adjustable setup for rear.
    Think an AJPS spring seat aduster is my option really.

    Wagon86, your setup looks super neat! manifold looks really good.
    out of curiosity where did you get your oil supply from for turbo?

    Cheers man yeah it's pretty high with the turbo and afm all there . I got the Oil from the oil sender light or whatever it's called. Down the bottom of the inlet side. And got a Teflon hose from pertek . Works well

    Hey mate, Im in NSW, I got my water source for the turbo from the lines to the heater core, i was going to just "tee" into them but the heater core was leaking so i just plumbed straight into them, ill get a pic for you, welded some staright pipe onto dash 4 JIC fittings to fit the lines, easy really.

    Sounds pretty easy to do. I gotta replace my timing chain before I do any thing. Stupid plastic guide is broken.

    Since replaced the rocker gasket and clean it up under there, was not the cleanest.

    Was a Hose Barb i welded to a 90 degree JIC fitting for the braided lines, suprising how easy it was. If your keeping your Heater core, you could get 3 way barbs
    From Auto one, easy too.

    Here you can see the 3 inch i had from the turbo to the cat, then stock to the back. I always planned to continue the 3 inch but wanted to get it running at the time. Next to it is a 3 inch catback from a Eitsubishi Eclipse (cue fast and furious quotes) I got from ebay, since nothing off the shelf is available, I decided to mod a system then buy all the mufflers/resonators/piping/flanges etc.

    So i cut it all up and began the jigsaw. I ended up with a 3 inch cat and managed to fit 2 resonators, i started the car with no resonators then fitted the resonators, wow they make a huge noise difference, smoothed out the sound if that makes sense.

    I made a muffler quickly until i find the muffler i have in mind. Its 3 inch in and out as well. As for power, massive difference, you all know what a decent exhaust does for a turbo, goes great.

    While i was at it i dropped the tank and threw in a new pump from a Nissan Navara. No cutout in the boot to remove the pump
