Indeed.
Well, technically it's more 7M than JZ. Only 1/3 of the upper plenum and the TB are from a 1JZ. The lower plenum portion and upper and lower runners are 7M, the rest is just aluminum plate. I tried to make it look as factory as possible as well as increase the volume. Fitment is perfect and it has all previsions still.

I figured it was that kind of setup, very nicely done.
My Ray's LMGT4s came in today staggered set for my JDM MK3 that is coming soon

Awesome. I can't wait to see it. Do you plan to keep your white one as well as the new one?

Yessir, the compressor and power steering are still connected and off to the side in the bay. Old bottom half of the motors still in there(still need to remove clean and maybe paint haven't decided yet.)
As for today I'm working on cleaning up the used harness I recently acquired. Kinda wanting to redo the harness after seeing it's real condition under all the loom and tape damn OCD [emoji19]

I decided to try and fill the .5mm gap between the hot side and the ddp by gluing hi-temp gasket material to the mating points. I used 2000F exhaust putty as the glue and a cut up egr gasket off of a Jeep engine. As long as it doesn't burn away I think it'll be perfect. It completely sealed the gap when installed from what I can see.
Sorry for the blurry pics, but I dropped my camera phone an it royally screwed up the auto-focus sensor.
Also fabbed a new coolant bypass line since I switched from a wet to dry bearing housing. Then I redid the oil drain line to make sure there were absolutely no kinks in it at all.
Now all that's left is to install this beautifully polished cover and the wastegate actuator and this baby is back in business! Beeeotch!!!
Hey is that the suprasport 60 trim from turbonetics? I have one and it looks just like that I was going to have albert rebuild it for me.

This is the HPF Turbonetics 62-1 HiFi with Stage 5 Turbine and 4" inlet on cover. I previously had a SupraSport 60-1 Stage 3 with 3" inlet (what all SS turbo's had). SS had the Turbonetics hotside copied and cast down in Mexico. Had the same (if not worse) jamming waste-gate flapper issue. Turbonetics apparently originally stole the hotside design from the HKS' Sport Bolt-on, but offered more A/R and trim options.

The duplicolor for fabric, it stiffens up a bit, but i noticed it starts to soften up as it starts to cure.akito;2043238 said:
