  1. Hi,

     

    Great looking cover. I'm in, black anodized please. Let me know when and how payment is to be received.

     

    Thanks!

    I'm interested in one too. The black anodized looks pretty cool. A silver one would be great too. Would the silver one have a black "Z" on it, or would the "Z" be silver also? Not sure which one I want yet....haha...but definitly want one.

  2. I've got a couple of decent ones. You can email me at L28240z@yahoo.com if you still need one.

     

    Thanks!

    I've got a nice blue one that I'd like to sell. If you're interested, PM or email me.

  3. The O trim wheel is a turbine wheel, normally used in a T4 housing, it's smaller than the normal P trim T4 wheel. I don't remember how it compares to a stage 3 or stage 5 T3 wheel though, I'll have to look it up. Another member here(Clifton, I think) runs an O trim with a .58 a/r turbine housing and made low 400's at the rear wheels.

     

    So the "O" trim is for the turbine huh? Well then I guess I have no idea what the trim is on the compressor, which is pretty important from what I've read. Thanks for the info. I'll have to see if I can find out more info about this turbo then and see if it might work or not as it is.

  4. I ran a T3/TO4E for quite a while with a STG 3/.82 housing. Worked fine for me, 11.50's @ 126 mph in the quarter. I used both a .63 and the .82 housings. I preferred the .82 for the top end power. Less boost creep with the .82 housing. I was using a 60 trim compressor in a .60 A/R housing.

     

    I always wanted to try the STG 5/.82 combo, but I went to a GT35R instead.

     

    It sounds like it might work out ok then? You certainly made good power with it. 50hp for a 300 rpm difference isn't a lot....thats certainly streetable. I'm assuming that on my turbo, since it says an "O" trim that is for the compressor side? I don't know how the "O" trim compares to the 60 that you mentioned? I have no idea what the A/R is on the compressor side, but I've read that it doesn't matter as much as compared to the A/R on the turbine side? I don't know what the trim is on the turbine side either.

  5. One thing I would like to complain about, is the lack of color, lack of quick reply and lack of logo's/ad's. If I was color blind and had no fingers, this site would be awesome! :D

     

     

    I've got the watched (former subscribed) threads at the bottom right, but I'm missing a bunch of them. Did they only convert one page over to the new forum?

  6. I have a feeling that you will be very dissapointed with a .82 A/R turbine. The turbo I am running can easily make 400hp and it spools reasonably fast. .63 Is about where the money is at with these motors.

     

    Thanks for the info. I got a good deal on the T3/T04E with the .82 A/R turbine, so I can sell it and use that to get the correct turbo. I wonder what other cars might call for that turbo? Maybe the Supra guys??

  7. I do have a stock L28ET exhaust manifold that I'd sell and ship. I'd have to get it off the engine first, but if you're interested, send me a PM.

    Ahh...nevermind.....I just took a quick look at it and it is cracked....

  8. Doc knows us oh too well. :wink:

     

     

     

    DOH! :shock: My apologies, I assumed Vicki was short for Victoria. :oops:

     

     

     

    Yeah, I am one of the few staff members that actually has a mom, AND a dad. The others just have two dads and a chemistry set! :lmao:

     

    And then theres Ron Tyler......no one knows where he came from! :mrgreen:

  9. With the job market the way it is right now you might just want to stay in school and go for your Masters. There are a LOT of people out of work so you're competing against all of them in addition to all of your peers that are graduating and looking for work too.

     

    BTW how did you work in engineering positions in the past without your degree? I'm working towards an EE and I don't get any bites on working anywhere in that field without a degree......

  10. I've got a perfect one from a 1972 sitting here in my closet with all gauges and wires and what not. I was going to keep it as an example of where things go, but I could sell it I suppose. I don't have pics at the moment but I could get some if you were interested. I'm in Oregon, so shipping wouldn't be as bad as from across the country, but it would still be spendy to ship and make sure it is boxed well so it wouldn't get damaged. I'm not sure how much I want for the dash, as I'm not sure what a perfect one is worth. While I'm researching pricing, if you're interested, send me a PM with an offer and we can go from there.
