Good ideas! Maybe get some JWT cams too when you do the timing

heh would like to but they are pretty expeinsive on the whole. and because the UK got Roller-Rocker motors, there is only 1 set of JWT's available for it currently (soon to be another set thugh), and they will lower the redline, unless u add new springs, and the JWT springs are i think 12 quid apiece for 16 springs! and thats on top of the cams!

Yeah, S3R's are about $550(ish) but they are developing the S4R's at the mo, not sure what they will cost though!

Any of you GT owners fit solid or upgraded bushings on the control arms?

gobbo · 5 Aug 2006 at 17:08

Previous owner did the ones on mine. I think he said they were replaced with ceramic ones (I think? :confused:

)

Polyurethane?

gobbo · 5 Aug 2006 at 18:27

i would have heat wrapped that personally. bet it will start to look good when it's got hot a few times though mmm purple manifold...

you'd also be mighty ****** in 18 months when its got a great big crack in it due to the heatwrap.......
dont heat wrap stainless manifolds...... they are prone to cracking anyway heat wrapping makes this even worse
