I launched my Datsun parts company, for anyone looking. https://www.m2racing.com/ Thanks!
-
Got any pictures?
-
I would send the intake off to a vibratory polisher, then glass bead it heavily, then vapor hone it. No filters for now, but eventually I will get that figured out.

Well I got my cnc intake! Honestly surface finish isn’t what I was hoping for. But will be nice with some effort. I think it’s almost too much bling. I might go satin glass bead on the intake. It has pretty heavy machine marks Balance bar bolted on exactly as I planned, with 6mm banjos. The injector angle looks spot on as well. Pretty happy with it overall. Next rods need to be shortened and I need to figure out a progressive throttle location on the overhead bar and a cable mount location. Then moving the ecu temp sensor.

100% agree, facebook sucks

It's not a stupid expensive chunk of aluminum, setups and cut time is what makes it expensive in the US. China doesn't seem to charge setup fees.
-
US quotes were hilarious, to say the least.
-
I would not say this was a cheap intake to make:)
-
Direct, I quote 3 machine shops in china, 2 in the US and 1 in India. PCBway is nice, but normally more money then direct. The interface is much much easier. Currently I have to wire money everytime, which is a pain.
-
My cnc intake is done! Now to get it here from china.
-
The zcar ones are about as high end as you could possibly want. If you can swing them, I highly suggest them.
-
Final test fitment of my r35 bracket is done!
-
The custom stainless fuel rail is very slick! I can even clock the injectors enough to hide some of the wiring.
-
1 or 5, they are the same price. Slightly less if I buy like 10-20, but not a ton. Since it's all 5 axis time. If it works well, I may try and have it cast.
-
I am a looks and performance person. I am sure it performs well. I just think it would have been sexier for sure.
-
China is cutting this, they picked the material.
-
Well the cnc shop missed a program on my first intake and it’s ruined. This is number 2. It’s starting to look amazing.
-
I think the protunerz intake was an opportunity to make something extremely sexy and perform well, but the intake runners look like home depot pipe, then the rest looks fine. But it could have been amazing.
-
Sad, that is 10x better looking then the protunez.
-
Very common on yahoo japan, if you are interested.
-
Version 2 of my 10mm throttle arms are done. I recessed the hardware a little more and added a 5mm allen for safety. Plus designed up a return spring setup to match! I think I’m happy with this aesthetics.
-
Intake is coming along!
-
This is Steve from EFI hardwares favorite injector for the L with his ITB, their spray pattern was used in the creation of my intake, with the goal of injecting down the middle of the runner. https://www.efihardware.com/products/2720/Bosch-Injector-347cc-3Bar-12-Height-EV14-E85-Compatible-with-Extended-Nose

Something sexy to start the week off with. This is a stainless fuel rail for my ITB setup. Expertly crafted by Michel Vienneau! It features injector safety clip stainless cups, built in AN fittings and polished. I’m hopeful it being smaller will allow me to clock my injectors and hide my wiring a bit. Now I can’t scratch it. Michel is a metal magician!
-
Another thing to note is the car basically ran amazing off low idle (light street) when tuned. I think that poor injector angle isn't a thing, once the engine is sucking enough air/fuel into the motor.
