Hey, i'm looking into building a forged bottom end, and getting a GT35R turbo, an intake plenum and a high mount exhaust manifold. If anybody has had similar mods done and are happy with the workmanship and service they received if you could please post up your recommendations it would be much appreciated. Thank you everybody.

I will also suggest NOT to go to mendham engineering at rocklea... they tried to give me every excuse under the sun as to why they didnt pick up on the 19 inch crack through the head i took there to be pessure tested and shaved. Waste of money!

Indeed speak to Kyle (6Boost.com)
He can fabricate High or low mount exhaust manifolds in almost any configuration u require, and supply u with an entire kit (manifold, turbo, nuts and bolts, water/oil lines) the whole lot... to make ur life easier if that is wat u require.
As suggested, check out the Advertisers section on this website.. Pictures and prices for individual kits are all listed.
I'll also say that for the money u spend, u'll be more than happy with the service u receive from kyle, hes an A1 bloke.

They machined my fuel rail injector 'o'ring grooves nicely, did it quickly, and were relatively cheap.
What did they do to you stocky?
Oh and John White Racing engines built my RB30, Marty is a great bloke, a family friend,and a top engine builder

04-04-06, 20:04 GMT+10#12 OBT100 - were supposed to do my drilling and tapping for the twin cam conversion - took them 8 weeks to acid bath it and face the block - they didn't even do the other stuff despite repeated promises that it "would be done by friday" etc....... anyway don't go there.
