For those that know me, I have been talking about this for 3 years, finally some action..


New parts from the US and here-
Attachment 10133


Turbo installed, had to slightly trim the block but it got in there beautifully. Dont mind my leaking cam cap, got a replacement, just gotta fit it!

Oil return, nice and short, and straight too.
Attachment 10137

The install is complete now, but I don't have any pics of the completed setup yet.

Thanks to the guys down at Performance Exhaust at Northmead for a beautiful job and in a short timeframe too. your efforts are much appreciated guys!

Car is currently getting the fuelling and management side of things sorted out and we will be ready to go!

where did the parts come from who in the states? from spoolin?


i love it u get to keep a/c except if it was me i wouldve used my intercooler... but each to there own hey

love the gauges i wanted to do that to mine but i couldnt get the din the right size to fit... u get that none the less very good man what size exhaust have u got????

i could only fit a 2inch til the sump then 2.5 inch

manifold is second hand bought here, for the life of me I cant remember who makes it. Turbo is locally sourced GT2860RS all the little bits and pieces ate from ATP Turbo.

Your intercooler is a nice setup, but I didn't want to fluff around with the radiator etc.
DIN panel is just a metal item from Just Jap, had to trim the metal sleeve that the radio fits into and shaved a bit of the plastic at the top and bottom of the hole it all fits into. not too much of a hassle and it fits nicely. Gauges are 52mm (I think) not the more common 60mm.
After the cat at the moment I am running 2.25 to the muffler with twin 2" outlets. I want to change the bodykit so will do all this to 2.5" then.

BTW on the air con fan in our cars, the smaller one on the passenger side, which is the positive wire and wich is negative? I would assume blue is positive, but assuming can make a mess sometimes... Can someone check it for me? I can't access the car at the moment to do it myself.

hey does anyone here have a white da with side skirts,lip and rear skirts, altezza lights and very clean?? was down on beach road blackrock today???

[A-man]

it doesnt matter.. because the windings in the fan will determine the direction not the polarity of the wires but easiest way to check is check continuety between both of them...

so connect one to the car body or neg terminal and one to the wire, then if u get continuety then thats the negitive... u can double check this by doin the same but change it to volts and one will give u volts the other wont..


otherwise tmrw ill check for u the wiring.. and let u know
