Yeah it was my Mech fault, lol. We found the other peice to the shifter relocation. It was stuck between the rear seats. Xcessive sent us a new starter. The starter i bought from the first place was a member on here. He said it bought it from Xcessive ka<vg trans adap kit. Kinda think he lying now. lol
Got shabookied eh? Well at least your making progress again that's always good to hear. How much did you manage to get the tranny for and where? I would be interested in sourcing a jdm z32 tranny if the price isn't too savage.
I had a really hard time finding one locally or 5 hours+ away. I came across one online, the guy was selling it for 400 shipped with a very good feedback.
I would say the jdm is probably double of the price I paid for the usdm. Just a guess. Lol
It's been a long time coming. The car is pretty close to getting complete. Harness, fitting, welding and other stuff before starting it. I switched out the turbo while the car was being put together. I picked up the new turbo that precision got in line this september?
Not sure who else is running the 6766 on ka-t.org but i can't wait to actually push this turbo. =)
Came in last week. Winter is realy slowing us down on this build but updates to come soon.
Sold the rear wheel set up since it didn't really fit.
Just purchase for (2) 15x10 7 1/2 BS Billet Specialties street lites and (2) QTP 27x11.50x15 . Pictures coming soon. Hope they clear brakes, crosses fingers,
Got the intake finalized, elbow welded on the comp, housing, have the ic pipping finished. She is almost ready to roar.

I think low is 14 mid is 20 and high is above 25. Back in the days low boost was 7, 10, above 15 was high lol. I guess it is more of a trend thing and technology.

Sorry, didn't mean to offend anyone here. The goal we are trying to reach with the KA-T set up just requires more than 35psi+ with the old turbo . Maybe I over exaggerated. Over all we modify the car a lot more than it was originally was and looking into more power now. Stay tune.
I took this about a few weeks back, Everything is basically hooked up now and the car has started. I'm going back to the shop tomorrow to take newer photos of the setup. It's very dirty please don't mind the dirt and unpolished chrome. lol

no u didn't offend anyone, not me at least. I was just curious to know why people still use the low/high boost nonsense...
I just wanted to know what the new parameters are for low and high boost ... Since people still use that terminology...

Well sad day for me. KA-T.org rides has mislead me to a bad offset that didn't fit no matter what you had modify. Even with spacers i would had ran out of stud to cover.
Here's how it would look if it fit. Its 15x10 6.5 that would fit btw. I will have to get a new set of wheels and sell these. =/

Most people use LOW and HIGH boost because they run different tunes for different fuels.

Haha no its just what we want to reach for a while. I been messing with turbo inline fours for a while. I just want to take it up a notch for TX2K12 and rep for the KA-T folks out there.
187 ill try my best to write up something quick for ya bro. I lost it
I'm buying another set of the same wheels unfortunately. 6.5 BS and it will fit like a charm.
Score! Paid 40 bucks for some beat up fn01c and got them refinished for 80 bucks. I hope this is enough braking power w/ Escta XS. I really own this one to Race star Industries. The fitment was incredibly right on, the big brakes is going to stay. Thank god. =) Story of my wheel set up, can't wait to snap some pictures with everything on.
great build, very interested to see how that new turbo does. Love the looks of the new turbine wheel, would be cool to see the weight difference between the 2. (notice the old 65mm unit has a decent amount more material on the blades especially towards the center of the wheel.)
Big progress, drove it around town and get the exhaust fabbed up. Cops wasn't really pleased with me dumping from the dp and big white letters on the rears. lol
Here she is finally after 2 years of stupid custom work and major headache.
Remember when the car squats, negative camber happens. You might have seen some drag cars with positive camber so when it squats, the tire is perpendicular to the track and good traction.
