I am really excited now. I am picking up the car hopefully monday or Tuesday. I saved up some money for the turbo kit. I cant drive the car without a turbo for long. I also have a Defi boost guage and the E-manage blue. Taking off my volks soon to get them wrapped up and ready to see if they would fit my SC. I dont think they will fit but i am hoping for it. So here is the plan.

Turbo XS kit
Tein NF-210 lowering springs (no coils cause AZ is bumpy in some places)
ACT clutch and flywheel
Not sure if i am doing the Head gasket now or later. The only reason i dont want to do it now is cause the cars transmission wont hold anyways.

Good luck with the car Somy6. I live in Yuma (Cali/AZ border) and will be down around phoenix Area ALOT during March when I get out of Iraq. We all should set up a meet and a barbecue or something.

Absolutely. Two of my closest friends just came back last week from Iraq and we had a huge welcome home party for them. Maybe we can do the same for you

Sounds good

I just picked up my 95 SC300 5spd today Its pearl white. with beige interior. Did the compression test and it read around 125 for all. Is that good???
I will be getting tires so i can put my volks on there hopefully tom or wednesday. I will also be getting Tenabe NF210 this week or so. I am working with XS power (Mark) so i can get my SC boooooooooosted. It needs a lot or power i think. I am looking forward to 350whp or so for now. Then i wanna upgrade the head gasket, tranny, and turbo then talk some numbers over. Well i already have a Greddy E-manage blue for tunning. I need everything else. Add to the list guys if you think i need it.

XS power turbo kit
IC piping cause its not included with the kit
Boost guage
A/F Guage
Custom exhaust

What else fellas???? Don't mean to sound stupid but this is gonna be my first booooosted car. The others ones just came fast as hell and then i added some extras but never a turbo. BLIZZY WHERE YOU AT

Boost Controller: I would recommend picking up a boost controller for dialing in your boost.

Custom Piping: If you need custom intercooler piping, downpipe or exhaust work, Travis (beantwnsc3) has a local shop that can fab everything up for you.

Walbro fuel pump: Keep the fuel pressure safe.

AEM Dryflow air filter

Upgraded fuel injectors? Depending on the amount of power, you will need to dump more fuel.

kinda dumb question but i have a set of Injectors that came with my 350Z Greddy kit. Can i use those? will they fit or are they car spec kinda thing. Mine are 440 injectors for a Nissan 350Z. Can they be used in an SC??

Boost controller was on the list just forgot to put it in there.

The upgraded sound system that came with the SC is amazing. I have a 12 inch alpine R sub with a box that i had in the Z that i will be putting in the trunk with a pioneer amplifier to get that deep bass i like. I will keep you guys posted.

So can i use the Injectors???

That Lexus wheel looks great. Another option is the one from the Supra/Rav4/IS300/Celica/MR2/Matrix, mine's from the 98 Supra:

Would the injectors from the 350Z VQ motor work with the 2JZ-GE????

Does the airbag work if you get that steering wheel?????????

Just oredered my Kit today. Already paid for and everything. Great, now i wont be able to sleep for the week or so it takes to get here. I got the XS turbo kit, IC piping, Boost controller, Turbo timer. Will pick up on monday the Boost guage. Already have the E-manage blue that i am using for tuning. I have my Volks on there and i think they look sick but need some modding so it wont rub. Will keep you guys posted.

My Arizona peeps:
Anyone here in AZ good to tune the emanage??
Is $700 a fair price to install the kit + emanage + Boost controller??
