  1. hey guys i have a racing kart with extra gears and slicks dirt tires full body electric starter.Mine has a briggs 5hp motor with tons of mods runs on methanol has a 4.10 lift cam wisco piston horstman rod i turn 9k with it all the time very fast kart temp and tach gauges.I think i might sell it so i can get a street bike.I also know of another kart for sale like mine.I have new rims on it new chain i only ran it last year for about 5 races so the engine is still almost new.Oh ya it's boared 60 over and has the big valves i put alot of time and moeny into it.
  2. mine doesn't have the 3" outlet and inlet it has the 2.5 and they face the back of the ic but i do like the ic alot.I get alot of emails about it and i give them my opinion on it.I'll see how it does with the new turbo and let everyone know.If i where you and you have it i'd say use it.The one i have is suppose to be god up to 25 psi so i'm gonna take it there and see if i can break it. i guess alot of people think the volvo ic's are bad but i have had very good luck with mine and tell everyone about it.
  3. I like it bill i think it looks nice.Plus it is good for a roll bar Not that i want you to roll your car but it could help just in case plus the SUV's will see the break lite better too it's on their level.Are you gonna get side skirts?i think it looks great the way it is but they would just top it all off.
  4. i was at a truck shop and saw two big turbos on a pile of junk and asked the guy about them he told me they where still good(they look good)and that they where left over from parts engines.I asked how much he wanted for them and he said 10 bucks!!! i was holy crap so i ofered 20 for both and he accepted they are for cummins diesels so i was thinking i should clean them up and put them on ebay i was also thinking they would be great for a V8 setup if someone wanted to try it.They came off of a v8 diesel so it should be fine for a gas v8 the exhaust housings look small for the size of the turbo.So i think spool up should be great for the size.I'll get some pics up tonight so you can see the size of them they are huge

    oh boy

    well............. don't keep us waiting:)
  7. maybe you should just paint them the same color as the car(like in the msa catalog)I think it would look nice for day driving and shows.If everything goes well i'll have mine soon this car is taking alot more money than i thought!But i guess it'll all be worth it in the end.
  8. oh ya it has NO motor in it that's why it looks funny
  9. www.zdriver.com/rides/showpic.php?name=scottyMIzt_1020105821.jpg Here is a pic it looks good thanks jeff
  10. looks very nice bill mine will be repainted hopefully soon.Turbo is the only way to go I just need the head light covers now and the body end will be done on her.
  11. hey sparky mine is angled like that and it works and looks fine in my z.I'd have to say do it i did Shouldn't matter if it is tilted or straght as long as it is not obstructed.
  12. ya i was in a hurry i liked it so much I still have to fix some places on it like you said but it still looks good i think.I'm gonna sand it down when i get it ready to paint the original color.But i wanted it to look ok just in case i don't have the time and money this year.I appreciate all your help jeff
  13. geez there are aot of thses stories on here i guess we are being watched over.It's a good thing you can't drive BLK just kidding but it is good you did stall i would have felt imbarrised that i had stalled it till i saw what you did.I have a story too,I was on my way back from a job site(i'm a radio repair guy)and i get to a place on this main road where there is a big dip and a curve before it.Well i saw this semi coming with the dual trailors and something looked off then i saw it the back trailor was fishtailing just a little bit but the driver must not have seen it.He just kept going and the back trailor started making the front one sway too by the time he got close to me all i could do was get on the side of the road and grip the steering wheel watching his two trailored semi fish tail from one side of the road to the other hitting the dirt on both sides.When he slid by me he was only about 1 foot from my mirror,if i had stuck my hand out the window i would have lost it.I had the window part down and all i could feel was rocks hitting my arm and hear them hitting the truck's side.I looked in the mirror after he had passed and three other cars behind me had driven in some ppl's yard to avoid getting hit.The driver of the semi got it under control and did not hit anyone or anything.But if he had hit me or anyother car on the road behind me we would not be here today the truck was loaded with rocks. It all just makes you think when you go out somewhere, like if i take off 10 min later would i be avoiding a ticket an accident or would i be putting yourself in the middle of it?I didn't even think of it till that happend but now i think of it all the time.Oh ya BLK i know exactly what you mean about your dogs mine are the same way my only kids are my shar-pei beagle mix(zeus) and my lady's **** -zu(lexus)don'tknow what i'd do with out them.I know my mom would take my dog but it would be just killer on the dogs wondering where their owner's went.Dang i'm making my self sad have to get on a better note.It just wasnt' you time
  14. ok thanks ron i'll run it at 5 or 6 how ever low it'll go and break it in since i have to anyway on the engine having new rings and such.I showed all my friends here that can personally see the turbo and they are like damn that thing is huge!I said i know wait let me get the stock one.So i bring it in and they are like man you should have no problems getting 11's now in the quarter.I sure do hope so with a good clutch and slicks i think i can too.I just sent the money out to tony for the TB so i can have a nice big tb for all this air to flo thru man i'm getting excited just thinking about it and typing it So far it's been nice here and everyone has their nice cars out and mine is stuck sitting at home next to the shed waiting and calling me scotty come work on me
  15. thanks mak i'll post the results of the car when i get the engine broken in and the boost turned up.
  16. oh you already saw it i just posted a reply on the other one oh well thanks ron i like alot i kinda hate to put it on the car it looks so good That is a good idea ron i plan to break mine in too well i have to i have new rings and bearings in the old girl so i have to be nice i was gonna run 7 psi you think it's too much?
  17. hey guys i got the turbine housing all switched and it went smoothly.Ron you should check out the pics i put on my other post about getting the turbo mine kinda looks like yours
  18. hey z gad mine swapped ok and all i have to do is make the actuator work.But everything just swapped right over and it works (spins ) fine so far.I had to index it to make it work with my car.I figure it'll work good it has the 63 ar on it now so i shouldn't have any troubles with spool up and holding at the top end.Thanks guys for all the help
  19. thanks sleeper i think i'm gonna change it anyway cuz i want to use my dp(i paid alot for it but well worth it).I'll prolly change it tonight it's all the same size what does the clipping do of the turbine wheel?
  20. thanks sleeper i am planning on running it first the way it is and then if it's not what i want i'll change the housings and stuff.Is the ar in the housing or in the turbine?

  22. man this thing is huge i can't believe how big this thing is It makes my t3 look like a little freaking babyi can fit the outlet that goes to the intake from the compressor inside of the hybrid turbo.I will take a pic tonight and post it holy $hit i can't believe it I think i'm dreaming:)
  23. damn ron that thing is beautiful I will see when it gets here then i can measure everything and you guys can help identify things if you don't mind.I will probably need the spacer but i'm not sure yet.Also on mine it has that lip on the intake side of the compressor is there a way to take that out and make it all smooth and everything?
  24. i just got my body kit too but i plan to paint mine the same color as your z awd92gsx.That copper color that the first 240 was i like that color and it was the original color of my car.That turbo did come from turbohouse(mjm turbo) so your prolly right lockjaw.I still haven't gotten it yet but should be here really soon.
  25. Thanks mak i need to learn moe cuz most i didn't understand But alot i did i am just learning slow.Once i get it and get it on i'll see for myself what it'll do i can't wait to get it on there and running.There is this kid i smoked like three times(the mustang kid in daddy's car)that keeps going by revving his engine and then taking off fast i just want to go out and beat him again but really bad this time.
