Any idea what gas they put in it? If it's heat pump stuff it's probably not R134a, right?

If you wanna do it properly, you'll wanna flush out all the components, replace all the o'rings, replace the TX valve, replace the receiver/dryer, probably replace the compressor too. The old seals from the 80s often don't like PAG oil. If you wanna half-ass it like I did, just shove some guestimation quantity of refrigerant in there and hope for the best.

It'll very likely be R12, especially if it has threaded service ports. I've regassed R12 systems with R134a on my own cars. Doesn't work as great, but it still works. Of course if all your gas has fallen out you'll wanna find and fix the leak coz refrigerant is horrifically expensive now.

Check out the jap exhausts they stick on 350Zs and try replicate that. We used to get one in at work and it sounded mental Obviously you'd have to go a different layout to make it fit, but some wacky crossover pipes swapping between mufflers seems to be the go

How many potatoes do you need to brew 200L of meth?

IIRC they had some stroker kits to whip them out to 2.9 or 3.1L depending on pistons, which you've done anyway with the 7M cranky.

Holy shit those cam covers are lush!

I think they're to stop reversion back through the MAF sensor, which would otherwise read the same air twice. The later 20Vs don't run a MAF sensor so I dunno what they do in that case, but normally ya rip the airbox off altogether and run open ITBs so it doesn't matter.

So keen to hear this thing Nang the limmie

That's quite interesting on the tensile strength. In theory you could print cylinder heads, right? How lols would it be to whip up some 4AGE heads for it!

Soooo when you gonna get some high comp pistons and titanium camshafts printed?

First weekend in July would be good as I already have the time booked off for SI adventure

Keen to see it hit 300kph

Anyway slap some mivec heads on it or whatever

An actual radiator can be more efficient if it's painted black, but car radiators actually cool via conduction.. Anyone who claims you shouldn't change something coz "the factory spent millions on R&D you can't possibly improve on their immaculate design" etc etc are often clueless.
