I noticed that I.K.Engineering is selling these via his website. Looks like a copy of the TTE part, which could be handy for conversions given that it's very hard to find these normally.

As Gord said. Ike Flack is the guy who runs it. He's the one who designed the turbo manifold that my car (and some others, like Almost Finished) has. Dave (Almost Finished) has lots of their bits, like the lovely inlet manifold, their big valve set too and pistons/rods.

Going from what it says on their website, looks like Ike's got fed-up with eBay's charges and is selling the stuff from his site now.

IKE is a brilliant designer/engineer/tuner, the inlet manifold on Chri5's 3S200GTE Lexus is made by him, based on the Nissan 200 turbo inlet manifold, but with 3SGTE runners. He also did the prop-shaft lengthening and balancing:tongue_smilie:

Anyone seen these for sale before ? i.e. copies of the original TTE items ? Just checking because I think these are new, I don't recall seeing them on sale via eBay or anywhere else before, just one-off sales of used ones (e.g. I remember Dave Ellen selling a single one on eBay a while back).

I have a similar on my car, but that came from Charlesworth motors, and I think was a left-over part from a TTE kit (at least, that's the impression I was given).

0I saw these items for the first time a around Xmas time from what I remember or near that period (i also remember there were 10 pieces available. They were sold by IKE. I even asked them what are the shipping charges to Athens and they replied that they accept payment via bank transfer and not with paypal (as Gord stated also). Apparently these items have been on ebay again recently.
