Yeah yeah disco potatoe was god of turbos for the mildly worked 2l dohc n the late 90s early 2KS. G
GoOgle it will be heaps of info. General options on a budget for the 2l would be:
Gtir t28
S15 t28
Evo td05
CaLDina ct26
300zx steel wheel t25 -
T28 off a gtir pulsar or s15 silvia is what your after or a tdo5h off an Evo. Any will make you 200rwkw at high boost from a 2l if heads n manifolds can flow it.
All genuine garret std turbos....don't buy shit brands. If you wanna spend $ buy a newer model garret gt28r or ring Steve murch for a rebuilt flowed t28.
T28 from gtir pulsar flows more than t28 from a s14 or s15 sr20det however s15 t28 is ball bearing so will boost earlier. Tdo5h from Evo 1 2 3 etc is also non ball bearing but an awesome turbo and can be Frankensteined with the canter truck td06 if you wanted a monster. Anyways I'd go s15 t28 silvia turbo if on a budget and hope for a low K good one. Or if you want to buy brand new then buy the disco potatoe gt28r or go see Steve murch. I'm talkn 5 year old speak BTW so maybe better off hear days.

Cheers for replies will send some pics off n get quotes.
Found oldschool beater n Featherston, none in welly apparently... $60 an hour which includes sanding pits after dechroming.
Q. How does one Dechrome/what process. Thinking just could get dechromed n sand myself to save on $
Actual chroming cost from 2000-2800 depending on finish.
2500 on bumpers for a road car to me is not going to happen!

Anyone had bumpers re chromed?
I have some that are pretty straight (still need some work though) and are also rust pitted. Quote so far is over 3k to panel+chrome. Is this normal?
Where else can I get quotes? Wellington based but can send em round if I have to.

Yeah people fishing prob doesnt help the matter. I paid 550$, gonna pay bout another 250 to have them made mint and polished. Then if middy has time I could get her to make mould of them to have some cast. Thinking bout it.

I got the wheel out of the rx2 I need to ID to see if its std. Will take photo tomorrow/don't think it is.
Also engine has now had 45 mins of idle/few revs.. aka first stage of run in done. Did it in two sessions and it used bout 12l of 98oct! Gotta figure out how the Holley fuel pressure regs work as I had no return on it. Also engine didn't go over 100deg idling @ 3g for 25mins today. Good signs.

Engine + cooler took 5l of 10w30
Running, need timing light to time it a bit better now, this running straight of the stab.
Oil pressure sweet as.
Temp sitting over 100 n not going down so needa look into shitty old sender unit, timing, and thermo.
But all in all good result, im stoked that engine runs as it was a bit of a gamble purchase.

Struggling to go to cold garage tonight. Had KFC for dinner and just wanna feel fat on couch and watch stupid modern 'rap' pop clips and lol whilst at the same time getting angry inside and wishing it was still the 90s with the Killahillas and thugs.
Thanks for accommodating my bs post. I'm going garage
