Plenum
You have to turn the blade around backward to cut steel or it grabs to much I have seen it all on the building site.... Nice design, would it have been easier to get a piece of 125nb pipe cut the bottom off get a plate made to sit onto the lower 1/2 of the plenum then weld together. It would something like a Nizpro unit then... How much did you pay for the lower plenum half?

Fitting A Boost Gauge In A Manual T
The grommet is easier to find from inside the car, get down with your head under the glove box, peel back the carpet you will see a grommet. Just push it completely out then pick it up from under the car. Drill a hole then pop it back in. It is also easier to feed the pressure line from the cabin.

Solving Boost Spiking On The Gt3540
The 35/40 off the T is not suited to the 2j, I guess you are changing from twin to single setup? If you change the wheels or port the exhaust housing it will be better suited. No offence indented there are so many options for the skyline with out putting a toyota engine in. The 2j would have to be one of the best non nissan engines you could have choosen. Got love that forged bottom end.

Fishing Boat
Im selling my "fishing boat" 12 ft with 40 hp merc on the back been clocked and booked at 42knts. $2500. I always use ultimate as the fuel for that extra hp. If you want to go outside you need a deep V boat, preferable aluminium with minimum of 50hp. Nothing worse than being caught on the bar.

Solving Boost Spiking On The Gt3540
Stop don't do anymore to your car a 2j in a skyline, who did that should be shot. There are so many good kits for the 2j, T4 if you want mild or T88 for the boost junkie. The 34/40 is not suited to a 2j

How To Make An Xr6 Shorter
I hate to see what mine is going to cost, I had neglected to add that I was in the middle of a four car nose to tail, however I had stopped completely and then was pushed into the car infront. The front only has minor damage, bar, bonnet headlights. I dont have to pay any excess and keep my rating 1.

Changing The 8" Factory Sub
Before I installed the new amp I was running 2 15" of the factory amp, it was not very clean but it did the job. Being its only a 8" free air sub you are never going to get huge doof, just put it in if you want more buy the amp later.

More Intercooler Antics
Unless you have the in/outlet in the middle or huge tanks no intercooler will efficiently perform at the furthest point away from the in/outlet. This is generally why 300mm is the largest common size, To go larger ie 400 you do not get the same effect of cooling for the surface area gained. It takes a lot of work to fit that size cooler in, looks great.
