That blade is pretty well bent and in an object that spins 100,000rpm, any dmage to the blades will cause it to vibrate itself a...

I'd have to say, neither. That one has 2 extra holes in it and looks like a Z31 turbo. Z31 turbos use their own specialized flanges. I've provided a link to a guy comparing a turbonics knock-off T3 turbine to the Z31 T3 turbine. http://www.redz31.com/pages/turboupgrade.html It would figure... I spen...

Basically, it's like a jumbo version of a regular t3 flange.

JGS saves the day again! Now I remember why I keep ordering parts from him... He has everything I need!

I've been satified with everything I've bought from you before, so I'm sure that'll it'll do me just fine. I'll email/pm you for details.

Does anyone know where i can get a mercedes 5 bolt t3 flange for use with an external wastegate?

hey sorry guys... I don't mind to change the subject here but i am running a stock sohc ka with 88k mileage. I used to have twin cam ka and i knewn what octane gas to run with that but i'm un-sure of what should the sohc run... 87 fuel?? thanks and sorry for butting in like this. but i been running...

Only? It's the worst case scenario in an engine.

If you are spending $3000 on a turbo setup, $3 more per fill-up should be small beans. Especially since you chose to create an engine that gets about 12-13 mpg under boost. If you want to save money on gas, you shouldn't turbo the engine...

I'm rocking a Zeitronics ZT-2. Gotta love a wideband with datalogging for less than $300.

no project silvia it only fits denso injectors or something read it really carefully False. I own one and it fits both my rx-7 460cc and DSM 440cc injectors perfectly. They can mill it out to accept the denso injectors if you order it that way however. Word to the wise, the project silvia rail come...

My SOHC sounded exactly like that when I lost the #3 rod bearing. Thedull, hollow, metal on metal pounding that speeds up when the engine is revved is a tell-tale sign. It did that for about a day before sending the rod through the side of the block. That's no valve problem or timing chain tensioner...

A 5 gallon bucket of carb cleaner. It's "only" $103 at NAPA... In reallity, I went with the cheaper solution, a 1 gallon bucket of carb cleaner ~$34. I mixed it with 3 parts water and soaked the intake manifold for 2 days. I then sprayed more cheap carb cleaner (8 for $8 at Wal-mart) to in...

Been there, done that. It just won't start.

Typically, you'll have to have a muffle shop do the work. If you bring them the parts, they can probably do it up fairly inexpesively. JGS has the 5 bolt flange for $30 ( part number TK049 http://www.jgstools.com/turbo/trbflg.html ). Assuming you aren't going for more than 300hp, you can just have t...

Aye me matey! 'Tis be for the best that ye fab a custom downpipe for ye manifold. Arrr!

I've found it easiest just to pull the tranny with the motor. That way there are no difficult bolts to reach and it all just slides out. Just remember the drain the trans oil first or you'll have a hell of a mess on your hands.

I do all my own work so there are no labor costs for me. I don' have any pics as of yet but I kept a full speadsheet of expenses and how I might do it differently next time. I don't always have the best of parts, but it's all reliable. I recently bought another KA24DE and I think that will be the bu...

http://www.ka-t.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6263 ^Start there for things you'll need.^ You don't really even need to touch the engine internals for any power level 300rwhp or less. If you really want to build the engine you'll be looking at about $2000 for forged pistons, rods, cams and machine work....

I've got one. It's a very nice unit and tucks away in the ecu kick panel easily. The data logging makes air/fuel adjustments so easy it's rediculous.

That is the DOHC build up sticky. It has all the basic info you want to know about what you will need at each power level.

The first time I pulled my engine, it took me about 6 hours because I was constantly labelling and organizing things. Now that I've pulled it three different times, I'm down to about 1.5-2 hours with no help from anyone else and I just throw everything into one bin unorganized. After you do it a cou...

Lol, I just re-read the question this morning when I woke up. I thought it was asking about camshafts not cranks. I'm not posting that late at night again...

You need to pick either a fmu or safc, not both. The safc will work just fine alone with those injectors. The safc adjust how much fuel you want to add per rpm and interpolates between tuning points. A wideband is ideal for tuning properly.

Nope.

Re-install the 450cc's and set the S-AFC for -37% across the board. Download the manual to figure this out. http://www.apexi-usa.com/product_electronics_detail.asp?id=202&pageNum=1 This will make the injectors meter fuel like the stock 270cc's. Don't boost like that, just take it to the dyno and...

It did that for me too when I used Mozilla Firefox to open it. Worked fine in Internet Explorer though.

That's a dodge/crysler t3, good project turbos. It's easy to tell because of the unique exhaust flange.

In order for the VLSD to work for you it needs to meet a few criteria. A: If your car has ABS, the S13 it came from must also or you'll need a non-ABS driveshaft and you'll lose ABS. B: You'll have to swap differential covers on the back to bolt it in. C: Output bolt pattern must be the same. If you...

I just got my JGS kit and that is DEFINATELY not a JGS. That looks like a home-cobbled "thing"... I'd pass on that, that wastegate port is not in a good location and the welds look sub-par.
