Correct. The kit comes with two drill bits (pilot and final) for taping the manifold, as well as a 1/8" NPT tap. A roll of teflon tape is included, even tough all the fitting already have it wrapped around the threads already.

RTV is included for the oil pan, zip ties are included as well, as is the oil filter. Oil filter housing is bolted to the bracket, as is the oil cooler. The kit is a lot like assembling Lego.

All you need is oil to and tools to complete the install. The idea is to start the install, and not have to run to the store for anything. We all know how annoying that can be.

Do you ever plan on upping production and maybe figuring something out for the AT guys? I could see a lot of G37 owners potentially jumping on your kit if you could make enough of them and cover more of the VQ market.

Actually, for anyone looking into your kit, are there any available right now or have they all been sold? When are you planning on another run? I'm pretty sure that demand should be there.....

I am in the process of looking in to sourcing some of the fabrication out and increasing production volumes. It is hard to find a somebody that can meet my specs as far as quality and tolerances go. This is also not cheap.

I will not be taking deposits on these kits however (provided I can source some of the fabrication out), and have you guys waiting for a long time for the product to be built and ready to ship. That is bad business, and somebody is already doing it...so I don't want to be a copy cat.

As for the A/T, at the moment I do not have plans for this. I don't think it is possible to fit this kit on the A/T cars due to the large transmission oil pan.
