Very true... So there is no "maximum" boost you can run on a stock l28et without further modifications? I saw some people on here discussing twin turbos. Ive heard a single big turbo is better than 2 turbos. Im not sure why but i think it is because of turbo lag. I saw this on a supra forum because alot of supra enthusiasts where trading in the twin turbos for 1 big single turbo.Most people on here don't run big turbos or boost. A few do though. Boost isn't the limiting factor, it's detonation. Cast pistons are not very forgiving at high boost. You can run 30 psi if you want on turbo pistons, just don't let it knock. Timing and octane are critical at high boost.By support do you mean spool? Someone on here is running a GT42 on an L28. Wouldn't spool too quick in the lower revs but the engine will spool it.
Turbonetics uses Garrett based stuff. I used one of there T58's and now have there T72. Works fine. Have a Precision on another engine.

Hey, I wanted to see you guys' opinion on this subject. What turbo is most effective for a L28et engine without, "blowing it up"? What modifications for a stock l28et are needed for a big turbo?(25-35psi? maybe?) What is the biggest turbo a stock l28et engine can support without further modifications?(my opinion- maybe the msa "turbo mod" kit?) Anyone tried using any of Turbonetics' products?

Wouldnt acceleration be faster with a turbo? What if you greatly increased displacement and added a turbo?

Did you custom make your boxes? You should post pics up.

As far as sub goes, I was planning on buying 2 JL Audio 10 inch 10w7's. http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_subs.php?series_id=5 There is a page with info on them. They are very expensive but JL makes quality subs and speakers.

At first it appeared and easy upgrade to switch 74 260z turn signal(lower ones) to the 74.5 260z in grill turn signals. So I have the in grille turn signal assemblies and rgw grill, but it appears there are welded(or as it appeared) metal housings on the body that hold the turn signal assemblies. I have seen 240z's with these in grille turn signals and i was wondering how i would go about a conversion?

the chrome part just pops off. then you would have to grind and body work the two seams. or you could just paint the drip rail body color..
Do you mean like pop it off and put bondo as filler and sand it off? I was thinking more of taking a circular saw and cutting the trim right to the body and then welding it and sanding it.

So, these installed will cover the taillight panel completely with carbon fiber? Just curious because when aziza posted pics on page 2 it showed the panal as 1 complete panel, recently it has been posted as two seperate panels that join together?

Have you ever thought about making and selling some removable boxes?im planning on doing this to my car. and yes its custiom ive made a few boxes like that for friends.that turn out real nice. Mine are going to be removable so that i can take them out when i am actually concerned about weight... and i figure i only way 155lbs so even if i dont take them out i bet i weigh 30lbs less than alot of guys on this Forum so its no big deal... i am planning on makeing molds of mine once im done just so i can make a few of them if people ware interested.. -
Does anyone on here have sub boxes molded like this one? Does anyone know where i can get some from?
-
Checking back. When is it scheduled for production?
-
Me too. I think hes out of business.
-
I have looked through various pictures and I think that a Z would look better without the window trim. Is this an easy and wise move? How would you do this?
As you see there are other people that feel the same way I do. Questions? Comments?

So, square headlight covers have been made. Either its a custom or someone is producing them.
-
Wow, Thats a nice mod. Im in.
-
Hey, after you ask them, post on here what they said... because in the picture it looks like it is for the circular headlights.
-
...I have this body kit too and I am looking for solutions to get rid of the awful square head lights.
Is it possible to remove them?
-
Does anyone know if this is a reliable site? I've heard all the stuff about showcars and i was wondering if this site was as shady as showcars.

Pete, I've sent you a PM too.
