alright this is my first thread so bare with me here haha. I bought the car about a year ago and used it for a daily driver for the last six months. I bought it for $2,000 with wiseco pistons and crower 272 cams on a rebuild. It had an ebay 16g. i put on tru boost, a 2g maf, 550 injectors and a couple other things.
After putting about 2000 into it i decided it was time for a rebuild. I am currently going to school and working at a performance/machine shop so time and money is very slim but this is what i do in my spare time. I attached some pictures from the build so far. I'm redoing the front suspension as well with paint (POR15) and new bushings ect. For the engine i am going to hone the cylinders since its already bored .20 over, and get new rings and bearings and ARP all around. also do a valve job on and new lifters and check the springs ect.
Any input would be great, my goal is around 400hp
I also just got this turbo from a friend who was planning on using it for his e30 build but changed the direction of his build. It was used for 5,000 miles and i believe it is a gt30r correct me if i'm wrong. He had it ported and polished and ceramic coated but never used it since then. I haven't given him any money yet how much do you think its worth?
Also I'm pretty sure i need a 2g manifold? and what type of wastegate should i use and what else will i need to complete the install (obviously supporting mods, bigger injectors, fuel pump, DSM link, Front Mount ect.)
I just wanted to say thanks in advance for anyone who is willing to help me out this is the best forum i have been on and (most) everyone here is helpful.
