Not yet mate. It's on the list of things to do. I'll probably go see LF about it.

ahok. well if you want i know a few guys who do cm cages . one guy is good has a few cars out there with his cages and the other ones expensive but really good at making it tight and not very noticeable .he does alot of strip cars. cages/ chassis/ rear ends but as i said he does charge but worth every cent

Ok thanks mate, I will keep it in mind. I have a friend who works/sponsored by LF Performance so hoping to get a decent deal there too..... but the cage is a long way off yet

To do it properly budget north of $30k

Yeah all the little bits and pieces add up very quickly. I'd want to see more pictures of the kit itself before making a decision on them, but to me it sounds like a pieced together china kit, which I wouldn't touch with a 50ft barge pole. My 666fab manifold cost me close to $2k alone.

My 666fab manifold

Holy God! I must have missed this when you posted it.

Intake or exhaust? Both are gorgeous.

Exhaust manifold mate It's needed some modification to fit properly though, just on the wastegate pipes. I can get a better intake manifold made locally for less.

I hate the dollar being like it is... so much stuff I want

Coilovers, brakes, flywheel, clutch, carbon goodies .... all on the WANT list.

I no wat you mean, i want a TCD kit dam poorness!

[cplagz]

Car has been booked for tuning... first week of December. Exciting times ahead.

Looking around at clutch/pressure plate/flywheel options at the moment. Will probably order a SACHS 618 pressure plate, use the stock clutch disc (good for 500nM) and either a stock singlemass flywheel or billet aluminium one. Thats a dollars vs worthwhile thing.

500nm - 368ftlb is a bit marginal I reckon.

One of the E30Tech members had his B27T on an engine dyno where it produced 400HP and 400ftlb. Going off the specs of your very comprehensive build, I would think that it is likely your motor will make more torque than the 618/stock disk can handle.

Check out UUC. Their Kevlar clutch kits can handle mucho torque.
