not too many plans just gonna change the waste gate. when the car was getting tuned the waste gate was not holding the boost steady i was trying to make only 17 pounds of boost and it wasgoing up to 30 pounds,so im gonna take out the innovative waste gate and change it to a synapse 50mm. im also gonna relocate the injectors i had all 4 injectors put on top of the intake manifold but when we were tunning the car it was useing 94% of the injectors duty cycle. so im just gonna put them back to the original location so the fuel dont take to much time to come down from the top of the intake manifold. later on when i got some money to spare ill do more to it, just had a baby and he is taking all my money. lol. love your cars i also have 2 FD's and a datsun 1200 with a rotary ill post some pics of my other cars later on.

i got a turbo 2 motor in it with a monster street port, but i use to have a gsl-se 6 port knifed with a monster street port but i swaped it out cuz i was still useing the gsl-se rotors and the compression was too high so i always had to use race fuel when i wanted to race , the t2 has lower compression so when i go race i use 91 octane and the car runs excellent . i just hate that when i go race some thing always brakes i broken just about any thing u could think of in this car but its my pride and joy so i never give up on it. this is a pic from when i swaped the engine out as u could see the intercooler pipes and the radiator hoses are not hooked up. i could not find any pics of what the engine looks like now but its a lot cleaner and nicer lookin.

it started out with the transmission so i would just keep buying more t2 trannys then the clutches kept breakin or slipping so i had a special iron disc made and that solved the problem but the transmission only lasted about 3 events before they broke, then i had the drive shaft break 2 times so i had to put 1350 u joints on the drive shaft . then i had the eaton posi clutches on the rear end just get messed up completely , after i almost crashed into the wall due to that i got smart and put a strange spool and changed the ring and pinion too a 4.56 ,since i have a chevy 8.5 rear end i had to put a custom pan hard rod were the welded the brackets to hold it up the metal was too week so it broke the body were it was being held from so we had to box in that spot with some real thick steel. i also busted the braided oil cooler lines in a race oil got all over the rear wheels so the car started twisting and turning all over the place. turbo oil return also kept on tearing on me , got kicked out of the track a few times for droppin oil on the track. my microtech's ignitor box got messed up one time and no one could figure out the problem so for a few months i kept messing with it till i found out the problem one of the spark plugs was not fireing under high rpm's so it was just running on 3 spark plugs when i would race it, but when i drove it normal on the streets it ran good. i ended up messing up the motor 4 times ,there is so many things that have got messed up i would be here all day tellin u, lol.
