Words of wisdom there! Guess I'll just have to spend more on the lude instead, perhaps a turbo kit would keep me entertained?

Turbo can be an option for you as you already have a lower comp ratio. :lol:

you would do better to spend the 3k you will need on a turbo build (decent one anyway) and buy a 200sx for jobbies and giggles.

put the lude on blocks if you have to but better to buy an engine MADE for turbo fun than try and make an apple an orange.


nothing wrong with building a stable of cars is there. having also spoken to quite a few honda tubo conversion owners they all say basically the same thing. ''yeah its wicked but its not like being in a turbo car thats had half as much spent on it.

Colour match isn't great but they were already painted. The 4g zorst fits much better under the standard skirt :)

Now I know why you want the twin exhaust set up. To fill the other side of the spats :D ?

:lol: I know! Think it must be from a can, the motegi kit colour match wasn't great either and that was off the paint code but hey ho. Need a pro to do it ratty ;)

Nits, I was looking for symmetry so you ain't far off :D
