uh, this shit is crazy! IN

An intake design such as this, using the stock runners cut down (or new ones) would be simple enough to do, but has been done before... doesn't really blow me away. And the more I think about it, I'm thinking I want something coming through the hood... to keep in theme with the rest of the wildness that will be going on. So, we'll see.
The manifold modeled below uses two Q45 throttle bodies.

Table is beautiful, what do the legs look like for it? It would look sick on a base made from thick box tube steel with sintered iron casters and then coat the steel in linseed oil

Thanks! It is turning out pretty sharply...
The legs, if you can call them that, will be made from 2" square stainless tubing, cut and welded to make two 28" x 28" square frames which will be set at each end. They will have a brushed finish.

So, if you do decide to go either of these routes with the ITBs, want to make a second set for my car? haha
I have been fabbing up my own version on my second motor, but need to find some 48-52mm ITBs that arent a ungodly amount of money...

glad to see the motor choice

Do you have any pics of the setup you've been working on? I have a few ideas... I'd be curious to see what you got started. I've actually considered using Ford or other small (50-55mm) throttle bodies as you can get them for $30-40 a piece, and getting rid of the bulky stock mounting flanges for a more compact/simper look. I'll probably end up going with two larger TB's at the front however.

It seems as though there's always too much going on to make any consistent progress on the car. This past week it's been the new dining table... The wood originally started out as 16"x12" beams which held up the ceiling in the old Hilton hotel in town that was tore down some years ago. Ripped down to 10" x 1.75" and glued together to make the table a final 40" x 84". Stain is a satin black, I may apply another coat. The legs will be 2" square stainless tubing, mitered and welded to make two 28" square "frames" at each end.
Not exactly Z...or car related at all, but I figured I'd show what has been taking up my time. It is a build thread, right?

Kept some of the live-edges and bolt holes for character.

The tubing for the Forester exhaust also comes tomorrow. Depending on the timing you may see more photos of that tomorrow. If not, by the end of the week...

Here are two setups similar to what I'm considering...

hahaha not even even the biggest car-h4ter can say that for real about this thread.... :p

[Funtington]

This thread could be so great, if only you had fabrication skills... tisk tisk.

^ ionz, calm down tiger, all you've done is ask the man for more pictures, annoyingly

senza, great work on this thing and zammo is on point with the fix, definitely my preference for the intake setup. not that he or I have a vote

lol. I was asking him to update the post in a roundabout way. so, i am not the one who needs to be doing the calming down my feline friend.
