You dont think a thicker ring land is going to make a difference? Ive sunk ring lands on turbo pistons rather easily i dont want to know what would happen with a weaker ring land.

That would require me to pay someone to do it. No thanks lol I need to rebuild my engine more than i need bling. And a Neon Green turbo sounds fun to me

lol actually i did most of the work with the scotch bright pad things on my die grinder. there is different grits. i did cut off the big boss where the valve went though and then cleaned it up with that big carbide bur you see in the pictures. then finished it off with the scotchbright pads. And i dont think im going ot polish it. Cause then ill just have to keep polishing it and ya i dont really want to do that.

So i got bored this afternoon and for one i ported my exhaust housing and then i started to strip the orangish coating on my holset. then i just kept going and shaved everything on it let me know what you think. Before and how it sits now. Im probably going to paint it some bright color because people are always like "Wheres the turbo!" lol Nothing fancy but ehh it was fun and I made a huge mess of aluminum chips lol

Its more important to have good crank case evacuation going on so there isnt any pressure build up in the drain tube. Im planning on running my valve cover and crank case vents to the xhaust with the 45 deg pipe method.

my car made the first page!!!

If its for racing then i would go with it. If its for a cruiser, or driver i would go with something different.

I have one pm me

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LMFAO!!!!!

They arent 500 new unless you go buy them from a speedshop. You can get them for $380 shipped all day long on-line. And thats with a 6 puck sprung disk. Not trying to discourage just letting you know. I would call up act and see if they would replace the rivits for you also

Glad your back at it! I was disappointed when you gave up on your old setup. I like the MS install also

Just one question? why only 275hp? Your already going to be replacing the turbo and injectors and it really wont cost him much more if any to buy a little bigger ones. Put some 440cc injectors and lets say a t3/t40e on it and you can get to 350hp pretty easy. Idk I just see the work going into the engine that can support more and then cutting it off at 275hp. Thats just a thought i was having. In my mind i was thinking in the 10k-12 ballpark. Maybe if your doing this on the side in your garage a little less.

Yes I will second the fact that my situation is RARE It hasnt been doing it now for probaly 3 months after i did that very extensive modification to my board. But you do have to realize that my car ran perfectly with no signs of resets for over a year and then they started popping up. Dont let this discourage you from going MS im planning on keep running it when i swap over to my 2jz

I was wondering also if you changed your bov because i know mine never sounds like that and we have the same one lol

Im planning on running my crank and valve cover vents to one of these. Is there some ideal size of pipping i should use? im planning on doing it under the car after my dp goes from 4" to 3" so it should have a higher velocity. Another question is how long does it have to be straight before i put another 45 in it and make it run parallel to my exhaust? And can i have both vents going to one pipe or do i need to use 2?

Im running a 300zx clsd also. just curious if there is going to be binding or if they are going to be ok. I really dont want to tear them apart. Honestly im not sure how i could unless i got new boots. uggghh

Oh #^@^#^&$&%%***%&$*(($(%*%& anybody have any idea what will happen if you did it wrong and am going to be running it on a 260z with the mm adapters?

Contact pallnet he should have what you need

If you push the cash advance button it also doesnt charge fees my dad sends me money that way sometimes. Then all i have to do is use my paypal debit card which is freaking amazing and i have my money!!!

Good job gabe!! I ordered some of my parts today. I would really like to have the new motor in by DNI Here is hoping!!

I didnt read it all but ive seen TonyD say it many times before over at zcar. I stopped going to that site once i started noticing the same thing would come up every day. I really dont like how the forum is run with the whole new posts at the bottom new ones at the top. You cant really bring up an older thread and ask a question on it because no one will see it. Partly i think its the sites fault for not making it easy to search for information.

Hey derek mind me asking how much your getting those valves for?

ive got one. Just pm me

Where yours worn like that?? lol mine move a few millimeters of play. lol

Oh and that pickup is possibly done correctly. There is a company in FL that makes those. Alot of the Lawn care guys use them so they can get all the guys in one truck and then they haul a trailer Ok nevermind i looked at that truck again and thats not how the company i know of makes them lol. that is a little scary
