you wouldn't want to swap the lowers as the heads on the vr have a different style of intake runner and it connects different. the bottom of a gtr LIM is flat and ours is a v shape your only chance would be swapping just the uppers. on our engine the fuel inectors are in the LIM on a gtr they are in the head

Thanks for the heads up. :tup: Thank goodness I don't need that part. How about the intake runners meeting up at opposite ends?

GTM has an adapter plate which is allowing us to mount and fix that problem.

Ah, thanks. I wondered what the adapter would be like... I'll take one please! Intake collector straight from a blown VR38 in the UK is on the way. :happydance:

Haha you'll have your moment of glory since I'm far from being ready to force feed my Z - a little over 1 year away. So with your car being finished I'm going to spend the entire year watching your vids over and over until the time comes. :excited:

So any updates, pictures, etc.? Blue balls...

Just a little baby sneak peak of some sort :(

def some blue balls here.... LMAO. Sam really does have his hands full at the moment. We have some manufacture reps coming over early next week to view the progress and see how far along we are and to see how involved they would like to get. LOL and I am trying soooo hard to not call Sam everyday lol sometimes when I call he already has an asnwer ready for me even if I am not calling about a status update hahaha. Its tough man I got to let the boys work their magic cause the car has to be done like ASAP so it can go into the bodyshop and get its full audio install done for the magazine cover shoot... Man what I wouldnt give for a week or two off of work to go help with the install!!!! seriously I am a totally hands on person and this is taking a lot for me to just hand over to someone else to do.

I know they are working late hours but man I probably wouldnt sleep until I got to a huge mile marker. Lol when I did the BBK install I did sway bars install too and I adjusted the suspension all in the same night! I pulled some help from some of my local buddies and man we worked till about 7am the next morning lol and we started at 3pm the day before...

PROPS to Sam and team I cant wait for another update!

Actually I thought I was going to be the first with the GTR manifold but I guess that is not the case. While my car is not waiting on a photo shoot I do have quite a big build going on at GTM. I hope that you have better luck with your build then I am having with mine.

Ok next question, is that available to the public, say me for instance.;)

bullitt5897 08-04-2010 10:41 PM

Yea if you wanna buy one from the dealer go ahead but just an FYI it doesn't fit our intake manifold.
