how do you build a turbo na?
GT
Well, you see, you take the NA motor, which has different intake ports, higher compression rotors, etc. etc.; you do a LOT of custom fabrication and modification, and you turbocharge it. Voila, Turbo-NA.
Used S15, R33, or NSX and a bike.
I’m leaving Canada next year and parting out my car!

Already 1/3 the way there… I bought a Subaru Impreza, going to sell my 240, and buy a bike. Yamaha probibly… R6 to start then move up to the R1.
STARTING with R6 … wow… R6 is still a lot of bike for a novice… plus insurance will suck.
EDIT: to stay on topic.
I scrapped my 240 and got a 1987 pathfinder for a work horse… it sat in my driveway when I got my 300ZX, scrapped the 1987, got a 1993 pathy, sold the 300ZX, got a skyline, looking for old S30 chassis Z car (S130 isnt my cup of tea), now im looking to sell the 1993 pathy. Considering a GTiR if none of my charges stick (instead of the S30). If my charges DO stick i’ll end up selling the GTR most likely in favor for something cheaper on insurance, might move to toronto and get a metropass and lay low until my rates decrease.
lol

bing:
u guys suck balls,
a nice mid/low 12 second S13 will be just as if not more fun to drive than all those cars.
heck, most of us already spank the doors of those cars now.
and do u realise how expensive it would be do TT a Z33?
u gotta buy the car first, then buy the kit, then pay someone to install that that actually knows what they are doing (<<hardest part of all) then you gotta run some sort of fuel management.
and tell me you are going to do all that on stock suspension and not tell your insurance comapny about your $40,000 investment.
also, try doing that on a lease… good bye…
when someone here actaully has $40,000 to play with and $600 a month in insurance for driving that car in teh GTA then we talk TT Z33…
S4’s are nice, but not that fast until you tweak it, then try to maintain it afterthat… good night…
S13 for me for long time…
my gf was asking me about that when we were driving the other day… what kind of car i would get into after the 240.
i really cant think of a more practical RWD car that can be this fast this easily, still be a tad rare and intersting, comfortable (im small) and cost so little to run.
no BMW could do this.
at the end of the day your still driving a unreliable early 90s s13.
z33 TT > s13

Oh and not to be a prick… but I know of at LEAST one supercharged Z33, and one TT Z33… also a TT G35. Supercharged + Turbocharged Zs are both driven all the time on the public streets.
also 5 litre mustangs are cheap, RWD cars…

Then you know too many overly rich people
Nah, I was driving down the DVP in the skyline and the blown 350 and I had some long chat, holding up traffic going 80.
The TT 350 comes out to the shwa meets, and i believe its the same guy who was at the auto show.
Oh well, bye bye S14.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllloooooooooooooo bastardized FC!!! Pics to come. Torque is good.
Carry on ladies. muahahahhahaha.
Bastardized? LS1? hmmmm :naughty:
GM’s are for rednecks…lol. Just kidding.
Ummmm, it starts with a 3 and it ends with a 2. with the letters H.O. right after it. lol.
That’ll be devastating!
Wishing you best of luck on that project!
Thanks dude. Picking the car up tonight or tomorrow.
