KKtrips Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Pretty excting stuff man... What do those lockups cost a month? I'm guessing they are in the Hutt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 Lock ups out in Porirua, cost about $250 a week I believe for a double. Headers are going to be stainless steel, equal length 4-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 Have been quoted $850, but final figure could change. Mine are particularly difficult so might be a bit cheaper depending on ease of the job/what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ae85 fiend Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Shit dude, you got your SAMQ stuff quick as lol - took me almost 8 weeks for mine too arrive haha. Looks sick as, keep it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Yeah, was stoked! Although im not sure if ill need the dizzy relocation kit now... I've managed to score a good deal on a new Link G4 Storm so might change the set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ae85 fiend Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Oh yeah? Damn man you got fairly decent prices with the aussie dollar it seems. It worked out $1120 by the time I paid for customs or whatever for just my water relocation kit + dizzy cover kit and the coil plate adapter. Would you be interested in selling the dizzy kit? Might have a need for it later on down the track. Did you end up getting the kit that allows you to use the heater and stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 I think i paid about $1100 all up for everything. Yeah man, i'll be selling it if i do go for a diff set up but i wont be deciding for a while. Yeah, got the heater option but dont think im gonna use it, not at the moment anyway but i just wanted to have the option there if i did decide i wanted it.

Brennan Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Wish I had of stuck with coilovers with separate shock and spring for the rear. Going to be a mission trying to fit my rear coilovers. And those headers are looking so nice! Might have to get some made for the 3sge eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Yeah, I was weighing up whether it was worth goig coilovers in rear but since this is just a road car and trying to keep the cost reasonable I decided these would be easier... Plus I got sweet deals on them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Whos making the headers for you? They look so pretty already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Getting them made by Steve at Frost Motorsport. They're fairly expensive since they're the first set but I imagine if there were a couple of people interested then you could get them cheaper. Another place I spoke to was Macbilt Engineering in Wellington who make 4-2-1 headers for $450 (quoted). They reckon they've done a lot of testing on dynos and they've got the best...

Vintage Grumble Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 $450'S not bad for a nice set. I was quoted around $800 from a local exhaust guy to make some out of mild steel, WAT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Ill let you know my final price when they're done, but I was given a quote of not much for than that for mine in stainless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drivekp60 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 those headers look awesome, cant wait to see the final product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMC Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Nice work man, need to get a madhouse front lip from ajps in Oz bro, they the perfect ones for 79-81 fronts had one on old twin heady ke70 same as your one, wished didn't sell looking at your build thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 I kinda like it without the lip... maybe just because the one i had wasn't a perfect fit but im not sure i wanna spend the $$$ to buy one from Aus and not like it. Will probably end up selling the one i had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Dam, get the dude to make a jig so i can get a set to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleSnayke Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Yet to see how well they actually perform, it'll be interesting to see what sort of power figure I get with these on. Give Steve an email, he's keen to do some more. bigsteve@frostmotorsport.co.nz Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 pffft, you dont go 4age if you want power. I just want some cool looking highrise headers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
