So there are a few options for the intake on the j32 conversion. You can send your intake manifold to super fast miatas and they will modify it a few different ways for $350. Below is a picture of one of the ways they modify the intake.
After seeing the intake manifold flipped 180* on a S2000 for more of a LSx look I decided I wanted it that way instead. I couldn't really find a good write up on flipping the manifold. I figured I could figure it out without much issue.
First I pulled the manifold off discovered that the heads are the same on both sides. The Right side head has an EGR port towards the front of the engine.
Right side
Left side
So all that needs to be done is block the EGR port on the manifold and switch the manifold base. Everything lines up perfect. Also the connectors that run to the throttle body will need to be extended and ran to the front of the engine.
All of the wiring runs on the outside of the engine. After looking at the intake manifold I thought I should tuck all the Wiring under the manifold.
This is the channel under the manifold
With the manifold mount (no fuel rails).
Let the wire tuck begin!
That's as far as I got today. Should get it finished up tomorrow. I have a month or so before my Chasis shows up. Have lots to do before then.
