sry_not4sale Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Strange there is normally half a doz out there. there is a mazda bongo i want to grab some parts off out there at the moment Yeah I thought it was strange too. Funny, there were easily half a dozen KL-ZE's there, which is what I was after... dunno if finding a whole heap of cars with an engine at pick-a-part says anything good about the engine tho...

kyteler Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Nice to see the Nissan name on there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My name is Russell Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Nice to see the Nissan name on there somewhere. know anything about them? Wonder what sort of upper and lower power they produce? He said he went through three of them and that they kept spitting the dummy on him. Would that be oil flow issues, or from running to much boost. This one has a small amount of play in it, not sure whats considered ok play and marginal. Can only try and learn i guess best way to go.

My name is Russell Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Do they have a T3 flange, wonder what other turbos i could bolt onto the same flange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Mk1 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 That looks tough as shit, good purchase. I like the intake, and its a sweet looking turbo manifold Swap out that (T25?) Turbo for a T28 Ball bearing item. Yumm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honda Ass Dragger Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Looks good man, the skyline t3 should see you right, if your worried about it, it may pay to get it rebuilt before you start id advise getting steel wheels fitted that way you can run more boost with out having to worry about the ceramic exhuast wheel ending up jammed in your rear muffler Nice looking plenium and Manifold as well, great to see no external (I hate external's that vent to atmo also hate people who fit them jsut for the noise they make) can't wait to see how this progress's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My name is Russell Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Can someone tell me if this is a good idea or way bad idea? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 086701.htm 1st problem they have the huge hole in the centre that would look odd 2nd problem making them fit the front hubbs. Narrower ones for the front if i want the steped look or they are to wide for the front. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... =220899640 Im struggling to find 5 studd wheels i like! Something like whats on Al's van is what im after. Once i have the wheels i can then work out what width to make my diff. i can begin by chopping the guards i guess and semi tubbing them. Dish is the main requirment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
