Does it say Turbo ZY on it?

You're getting there. See how nice it is to buy small things as you go rather than to save $3k all at once? Keep it up!:thumbsup:

no it doesnt, thats one of the first things i looked for, because there are some shitty "wannabe" garrett turbo's going around.

Cool. Another person I saw on NICO has a turbo ZY turbo that he got from boostdesigns. His is still working, but after that thread I saw on honda-tech, I wouldn't put one on my shelf.

everything i listed above is what i need to achieve my hp goal of >280whp. then again, i want to go with the ecu..and so i would rather have enthalapy tune the ecu for z32 mafs, and ~500cc injectors, and never have to worry about it, rather than having to send it back and getting it retuned.

Not to mention, it covers both fuel and timing.

Werd. I wanna switch my fuel system over to my built engine when I finish it and be able to safely do 400whp.

Then tell all the guys at the dyno that its the same one that made 280whp the last time I was out here.lol

Tims_240- nice that you got a turbo, another step closer to boost!
nissanfanatic- hahaha, that is an evil plan, tell everyone that it is a stock motor lol. Then all the 240 owners will probably try to do the same.

when random people ask me what i have under the hood i just say its stock. i fail to mention that its a sr20 though. i simply say "its stock"

Nah Pavlo, the same fuel system as before.

if you wanted 280whp why didn't you just get a t28? you're spending way more than you have to for a measily 30whp over the t25... it doesn't make sense. switching manifolds, spending another 500 or so, etc.

you coulda just got injectors/maf/safc and be done with it with a t28. it doesnt take much to get to 280whp.

almost positive i said > 280whp. im never going to stop working on this car for a very long time, there is no way im going to stop building horsepower, i mean have you ever said, " well thats enough horsepower for me. " i dought it. room to grow is exactly right.

Nice and im glad to be back, i havent posted in like 3 months but im glad to be back...im currently selling my s13 and picking up an s14 for 2500, and prolly gunna get away with 1200-1500 in my pockets. But im just not sure what to do with it, i need wheels because its a base model but if i got wheels (FN01R-Cs) i would need to do the 5 lug conversion. But i want power too, ugh soooooo hard haha.
