Changed the exhaust layout the way it was it was hanging a bit too low so revamped the whole system.I flipped the cross member around as well . Also had a few issues in trying to get the Mazda OEM fuel pump relay with the PCM and is show no fucking care to work so will be fixing it with a after market relay and a dedicated pump power wire.


Replaced the std oil pump with a Melling .


Sorted out the belt as well.

This thing is awesome, good to see it's back on track.

Thats not a lot of wrap around the balancer-may end up with belt slip and start chewing belts out on a regular basis. I had a similar problem on a rotary years ago. More wrap cured the problem.

Fuck yeah!

Pipes look huge under there.

Thanks for the heads up, it did cross my mind but will keep a close eye on it.

Agree Muz surprisingly there is more room then I thought there would be their 2 1/2 can`t remember if I`ve said that before. I`m happy that I changed them, there's been a bit of attention to modded cars up here at the moment.

Here`s a few more pics of exhaust

Pipe look good, where do you get the pipes from?

[mx_paul]

I get the pipe locally .

I changed my mind and have now started making a set of 4 into 1 extractors (I ran out of time to finish welding the last pipe ), also had the engineer inspect and passed the mods .

Nice, good choice going 4 into 1 with Lsx

Ta I wanted to keep the pipes up as high as possible but I couldn`t really do that with the tri`s . This way I can tuck them up nice and high . The length form front pipe to collector is around 700mm still so its not to bad. ( This will also make Cuntandweld happy :-) ).

[ALLMTR]

Buying collectors or making them?

[mx_paul]

Bought them and hated it :-(

[ChrisS]

What size pipes for the extractors?

[mx_paul]

1 3/4 inch

Good work Pops McTigwelder. May I have set to suit an old school 350 in a hilux?
