What have you done to your MSP today?

[SCMP3]

That's what I thought. He said he knows of a totalled spicy near him that had the turbo as of 2 weeks ago. He is gonna see what he can get it for.

ok....possible stupid question...

I dont have any fans installed right now, but would it be horrible to start the car and make sure it runs with the new IC? Obviously I wouldnt let it get up to temp.

any idea what i should offer for a gt25 turbo for a silvia that needs a rebuild? found one on a silvia forum.

 

[Knox Joe]

Well since you'd be replacing the center housing roatating assembly. $100.

You may as well buy a new turbo.

Would like to thank the city of victoria for tearing up the road doing sewage work and not bothering to fix it. My driveway normally has a 1" lip now its like... My ride height.

Backing out maybe a little fast and a non gangster enough angle and rad support smashes the curb. Didnt crush hotpipe but broke welds. Good thing i run relocated maf. Though the only air filtration it got this
Morning was the intercooler lol. Ah well. My
Ssqv idles open anyway.

Ah. Actually starting to think of life without a modified car again. The rc thing is hitting the racing spot plenty. Poor
Msp.

The nissan gt25 is smaller than our gt25. It can work if you clock it and get adapters, but I bought one and thought it was exactly the same only to find I wasted my money.

 

[SCMP3]

the t25 from the silvias are journal bearing (correct me if im wrong) and they are rebuildable. the dual ball bearing ones are not rebuildable. but $100 is what i was thinking

and id love to buy a new turbo but i dont have the money. and it seams like no one is selling a stock turbo right now ironically

 

[Ricktalife]

Hmm I'm not so sure about that. I believe I saw a stocker in the for sale section...

(skims marketplace)

but how hard is it to get it to work? and what all would i need to do?

and it would be a temp cheap fix

and after browsing quickly i didnt find any.

I would inquire about that ^^. He says it probably needs rebuilt but it's possible that it could be good. Get some better pics and ask where it was leaking.

Well like I said, you need adapters which I believe you can find on ATP turbo's website, and you will probably need to clock it so the intake and such matches up. If it's just a temporary solution then it may be worthwhile, but I for one don't want to remove the turbo any more than I have to. I've already had it done 3 times lol.

so here is my story, whenever i drive around in th evening or at night, when its not clear sun outside, my car shifts just fine. but everytime i start driving around in rush hour traffic or just when its really hot outside for a while, its becomes harder and harder to shift gears to the point where i have to literally pump the clutch 2 or 3 times and then the gears slide in beautifully. The tranny is full of oil, so is the brake reservoir, and i dont have any leaks as far as i know.

so what im thinking is that there is some air in the clutch system and it expands rather significantly during traffic periods, to where i have to pump the pedal to shift. what do u guys think? just bleed the clutch right?
