    Is that 'not' in a good way, or the kinda way that pisses ya off cos it makes your car feel slow afterwards etc etc....

    Still have never driven a 'worked' turbo car yet :|

    no it was gay in the way that makes you wonder why people want a 2K useable powerband.

    it was USELESS.

    Clutch will be way further down the track,
    I know there is bound to be a pile of issues fitting it up.
    I actually have to wreck my current flywheel for the Nissan ring gear

    Definately no way the T18 will be done in time, so pushing on with the turbo 5K build. About half way through the turbo manifold which i have dubbed "Frankenmanifold"

    Also decided to fit the 5.7 diff out of the liteace van... was wondering... is this going to be a long course or short course???

    hey... the courses are short.. longest straight it about 80m...

    have a look at the vids on the first page to see length of course..

    my car will have 16/14kg springs for this... yay for controlled skids..

    With that ratio, this T18 better be pumping 10K on the limiter all day!

    *Just found out my diff rebuild kit is in the post, Whoo for LSD skids!
