AJ’s 2005 LGT EZ30R Turbo, 6mt
Picked up a rolling chassis in October 2020, and have been working on it slowly since then.
Started by adding sti Brembos all around, as well as a 2005 sti 6mt with matching R180. Went with a driveshaft shop 1 piece carbon fiber driveshaft, as well as their 1000hp rear axles. Added some aluminum front control arms, and Whiteline sway bars etc. Then I made the decision to complicate things and instead of a ej25 with plenty of off the shelf aftermarket options, I opted for a jdm ez30r. I began designing an equal length header, which took way longer to come up with a design than it should have. Picked up a gtx3584rs ii Built the primaries out of 321ss 1.5”sch 10 pipe. Picked up a haltech elite 2500 and premium harness Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's awesome! Are you going with a rear mount radiator or is there clearance up front for everything?

I plan on doing front mount rad with an awic setup. I also added a bend at the collector to bring the turbo closer to the motor. I think I’ll be able to fit everything Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Decided to open another can of worms by deleting the brake booster and abs, before I drop the motor back in. Going to get a chase bays dual piston kit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This is a very interesting build. I love the detail pictures of the header fabrication. Do you do the welding yourself? The prep and execution look really good!
Do you anticipate needing additional shielding or a turbo blanket up front? |

Thank you! Yes, I’m a pipe welder by trade. This is my first (and last) header. So much work goes into prep, and purging etc. yes I plan on using a turbo blanket, as well as a heat shield to protect the pulley Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
