swap nearly done (dec.12)
installed front bumper, headlights and walbro pump today. test drove the car and man what i diffrent feeling compared to my sr20det powered 240sx !! the torque is amazing and the 2nd turbo didnt have time to kick in cuz we ran out of road........hahhaa
im very happy with results. heck, we didnt have the boost controller and boost gauge hooked up so we didnt know how much we were boosting !!!...hahhahaha
prolly 8,9 or even 10psi......maybe?? i dont know....... i had so much fun driving the car today even for about less than 10 mins. i took it around a few blocks to test my coilovers as well...
it felt real good and less body roll......way better than having aftermarket springs alone...that is for sure !!!
we steamed clean the engine today. we still need to finish installing the electronics and
other stuff. car shud be out of the shop this week, that's for sure....i will take final pics when she's clean....in and out !!! for now, enjoy the pics.....and some blurry ones.......hehhee

update:
finally got the car out and gave it a bath and fully detailed...........damn!
there were a lot of dust inside and oil stains all over the body.........but it's perfectly clean now!
the car drives real strong..i just need to get the greddy bcc so that i can boost a little past beyond stock....which im assuming is 14-15psi. im running the greddy profec b boost controller now. i also reconstructed my exhaust piping. sine our cars have two catalytics, i personally requested to take out the first catty coming from the turbo and replace it with 3inch downpipe. since the motor is obd1, we only used one of the o2 sensors for the ecu. the 2nd catty is acting like a "dummy" catalytic since there is no use for it but i took it off and replaced it with 'free-flow' cat to lessen that 'rich' smoke coming out of the exhaust piping. car runs a little reach by the way.
also, from the free-flow catty, im running 2.5inches "y" piping which goes all the way back to the mufflers. i also have taken out my two stock resonators.
i will take lots of pics of the car, engine bay and exhaust in a few days and will post
into another thread.
