Some updates to our FD3S Rx-7 mid pipe jig while we have a one on the hoist, added a 3.5" cut out valve from and raised the front v-band for more ground clearance.

These are a great option for cars running high boost levels, and can be ecu controlled to open with boost, rpm or simply using a switch in the cabin. Will be added to the website as an add-on for the exhaust systems.

Our FD3S 4" downpipe and wastegate recirculation tubes are completed! Very happy with how they've turned out.

These are to suit our twin scroll manifolds and existing 3.5" mid and rear pipes. Constructed from 304 stainless steel with a 3D printed 316L merge collector for the wastegate tubes. Fits the stock Rx-7 lower intake manifold aswell as units, no modifications are needed to the standard heat shields and heater pipe also.

They will be available to purchase off the website shortly- next step is to build a unit for the current Rx-7 on the hoist to validate the jigs 👌

Jig completed for our FD3S Rx-7 4" downpipe 😊 always a fun little puzzle making these up. Alot faster now with the use of 3D printed drilling templates and pre-laser cut base plates.

I've also started making them from aluminium RHS rather than steel- lighter, easier to drill for the rivnuts, and no chance of rusting. Wastegate recirculation section is next on the jig list 👌

A big thanks to for organising Darcy to complete some work experience!

Darcy initially completed two weeks of work experience at the workshop late last year, after seeing his natural talent for fab work and great work ethic, we were happy for him to join the team on a casual basis. He's already producing some show quality tig welding and has been a massive help to the workshop 😊

Tyron's mint Astra is up from Sydney, in for a change to a Garrett G25 turbocharger 👌 We will be fabricating a custom stainless turbo manifold, exhaust system and a few more goodies in the engine bay.

Funnily enough, a couple of my previous bosses have had a hand in building the car- I served with Tyron in the Navy, who has built the car over a 20 year period. My old boss from Westside Mufflers .westside has also fabricated a fair few parts for it. Small world 😅

AUSDM is back in the workshop for some fab work! Making some changes to the dump and mid pipes to suit the extremely low ride height, and modifying rocker cover for 12AN breather ports + a custom oil catch can 👌

Turbo manifold finished up for the FD3S! Made using our CNC ported billet flanges, 310S steel runners and twin 40mm wastegates.

Jig is updated for this new design, they will be available on the website shortly after we finalise our downpipe and wastegate piping options to suit 😊
