Hi boost low boost switch.

2months of late nights and hard work but at the end it is it all worth it. Big smile on buddy’s face.
Some small miner things to sort out and I can give you guys some power figures.
Hope you guys like.

Very , very nice bud . Like a lot of things you guys did including keeping the air con and abs working. I see it a genuine S.A. car sold by Nissan despite the other thing OR you changed the steering wheel covers !
The exhaust manifold is crap. Don't mean this personally, but mine cracked 4 times in three months, eventually I went stock cast . Best thing I did .
Free horsepower here. Change the small little diverging intake before the throttle body. I picked up tons by doing this.

Hay man thanx. Yes i know this one has cracked twice. Cool man will look at it but it must stay like this for now he spent a lot getting it like it is.

That is just stunning bud!

What exhaust manifold is that? Is that ceramic coating on it?

Looks very neat, well done.

Awesome work as usual Reynard
That engine looks fantastic,glad you finished it up nicely

Pics of the RB26 in my old ride pretty please

Thanks guys.
