Looking good, were did you get the towhooks from, and how much did you pay for them if you dont mind me asking?

[amnash]

so i guess that down pipe just blows the waste gate exhaust to atmosphere?

[Oakville]

GTR front bumper?

Ben, what's the plan with the turbo? The HX35W is internally gated, but you posted a Tial gate as well? The dump pipe will only work with an internal gated turbo provided the flanges match up. If you run external, you will need to have someone fab a screamer pipe for the wastegate.

LMK if you need a hand with anything.

[dah_hunter]

the Turbos Intern gate is going to get "Blocked off"

not exactly sure what external gate to use yet.. the tial one is an idea..

we can fab a screamer pipe for sure..

screw the dump pipe. lol

Time to Drain the Oil:






After about an hours of bloody knuckles and breaking tools. Turbo came out (Cell phone pic) Which is the old one?



Look a suprise..
Not supposed to have that much slack.. Good thing i was planning on Changing the timing belt anyways. (Car has 8x,XXX and its the original timing belt.)


Bought the ECU today.. (Gulp that the most expensive part)

Updates: Battle with the Intake/Exhaust manifold, and the Head.. After getting pissed off, and cutting some lines everything came out, head is good shape.. cylinder walls look nice, everything minty, glad this is such a good condition engine.
