turbo decision yet man?
page two winner = sundee86 yay
i never got a chance to ring gcg last week at this stage im going to keep the t2871r but i will call them next week see what they recon, i think for drift which is why i built the car the t28 will be the best option in the end and really anything over 250hp is gunna be awsome and that turbo should be able to produce that easy i figure if its a 480hp rated turbo anything up to 380hp should be reachable
up date only small but an update all the same
turbo choice: my machanic has a datto 1200 ute at the mo his doing its got a ze with a st20v head, so stock ze bottom end and a rebuilt mildly ported 20v head haltech E8, plenum + 550cc injectors, cooler and 3" exhaust. So what we decided was that i would give my machanic my T2871rs to put on said datto and see how it runs ie when boost comes on how much power etc, if it works out that the t28 is mint for what i want i'll just get another brand new turbo, but if it works out that its not what i want i;ll upgrade at no extra cost.
On another note i've been makin some rose jointed LCA's wich are working out quite nice ly i must say i made them 10mm shorter than a stock sylvia lca at its logest reach and it works out to be about 35mm shorter at its shortest reach
I cut the old lca up and used its "ball joint" then fabed it up with 16mm pipe with a wall thikness of 3mm there still in the R&D stage but you can see whats what in the pic, not sure how im going to do the caster rods yet, but im useing an inline rose joint for the swaybar mount.
Also purchased some tokico HTS102F front inserts (thanks to PATIENCE)
Any old school lads know where my motor ended up would love to find it not to many 20v's out there like it
