  1. Hey Dade,

     

    Whats going on man, I hope all is well. Curiosity is killing the cat and i was just curious if you have had a chance to tear the engine down and what you found. I hope you are still pleased with the purchase. Thanks again for sending the CD's back!

     

    Thanks,

     

    Wes

  2. Subscribed and thanks for the feedback. I am extremely curious to see results over the Perrin.
  3. Well I guess worst case scenario someone might be getting a great deal on a V1 kit in the market place. I'll contact them and see what they say. Thanks
  4. I have a SS-18GXR on order and was wondering if I need to to do anything different to run this kit with a BB CHRA housing? I am not familer with where the BB CHRA oil restriction resides in the system, banjo bolt? I already have the V1 kit, any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
  5. Not to hijack but since i was questioned here we go. Also, like i mentioned it could have been done a lot cheaper but is what i consider a good stage 3 build for my goals in addition to my current mods. It was a lot more than i originally would have thought, so that's why I spoke up earlier. 100k - Maintenance Crank Pulley Water Pump Water Pump Gaskets Gates Timing belt kit Thermostat Thermostat Gasket Spark Plugs Crank Pulley Removal Tool Accessory Belts Coolant Brake Fluid Power Mods Up-Pipe w/ Flex BOV EBCS Fuel Pump Fuel Pump O-Ring Group N Engine Mounts Turbo Inlet EcuTek E-Tune plus E85 Wideband O2 Sensor KS Tech Intake Heat Wrap 2" x 50" Gaskets Fuel Injectors w/ T1 Top Feed Conversion T1 Fuel Lines
  6. I just spent 4k for 100k maintenance parts, fuel upgrades, tune, and some supporting parts. In addition i still have to buy a turbo! One nice thing i was able to get everything i needed from Infamous so it was a one stop shop with great deals but things definitely add up. I could have gotten by a lot cheaper but I didn't want to half ass it. Spend some time reading this write up, very nicely done. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/turboi-wiki-twist-178684.html
  7. Thats an awsome write up man, great job! You wanna swing on up and give us a hand? Ever since he sold me his 5MT he hasnt been happy. I'm all for him trying it and I dont think I could take the auto either.
  8. So does this mean you will be kicked out of your 5eat pride club????
  9. Ooops, Wrong button
  10. So are you a member of the 5EAT Gay Pride Thread???
  11. This is what i might try. I have access to all the steel parts for free. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzd_F2KkNGs&feature=related]YouTube- Control arm 1- plan C rubber bushing removal[/ame] Do I need to grease the inside sleeve of the bushing?
  12. Were they worth it? So when I go to remove / istall these LCA Group N front and rear bushings can just match up a socket with the inner sleeve and tap them in / out? Will I need to add any grease to the inside of these? A post earlier mentiond the suspenion grease but didnt go into much detail. I also read on NASIOC where someone made a homemade puller. They used a pipe were the I.D. was bigger than the O.D. of the bushing but still fit on the arm. The pipe rests on the LCA. They used all-thread that goes through the pipe and bushing. On the bushing end the used flat washers that match up to the sleeves with a long nut.( the long nut allows you to still back the nut as it travels thought the LCA). On the open pipe end they used a piece of sheet metal with a hole through it and same concept. On this side though you will only need a regular nut. Any opinions would be appreciated before i dig into this. Thanks
