i am going to keep the ca in for as long as possible, i will build the sr20 on the side and work on the ca as well, the car had a bad turbo seal and it sent oil all through the intercooler, intake, injectors so i need to rip off the intake today, i swapped turbos yesterday and it runs fine now just need to clean up the injectors and intace so the car isn’t runnin on 1/2 oil and half gas 😉 the car was tuned in japan and it runs REAL lean overhere so i need to retune it! i will get the s15 turbo rebuilt then retune the A/F and i should be good for another 300hp pull on the dyno! hopefully 🙂 thanks for the replys! rob ---

oh and also this was not an IC buy it was me looking for a car on the auction lists (yahoo japan, ASNET auctions) and then lon hall doing the shipping work over in japan and me doing the rest! hahaha honestly i was not expecting all this shit! i just needed a shell to put the sr in but a 300hp ca18 will do just fine 🙂 i am way to happy right now rob ---

I remember seeing this car in the auctions …I remember the front mount and wheel combination … Working on your own car is always more rewarding and you can always learn something at the same time …but nobody wants to get in over there head … ---

> [@Impact](#): > > did you find it more convienient doing the work yourself? find it cheaper in any way at all? yeah it is cheaper in the long run cuz you don’t have people making money off of you and so on! clearing a car is very simple when u have all ur paperwork and a import/export license, u can get them for free at the government building! just go there and ask for an import export number and fill out the forum and they will hook u up right then and there then u need a ups account and then u should be set! but yes in the long run it was cheaper and a good learning expierence! rob ---
