Well, for the price, power and aftermarket support..

 

Can get it done cheaper than a 4age from what I've worked out, they're not overly heavy and the firewall can remain pretty much as is.

 

GT28 of sorts, turbo manifold, external gate, arias forged internals and 16-18 pound should be more than enough trouble :P

I bought a ca last night :P it's at my mates shed still I reakon I'll leave it there til I'm ready for it.

 

Let the part whoring begin :P

Baha! :lolcry:

 

It'll work out considerably cheaper than 4age, put it that way.

 

I wont start anything until i have every part i need to throw it all in. I want some time to just drive it as it is after all this work before i do it anyway.

 

That said i might start making some engine mounts next week if i go down :)

How do you figure that a ca is worse? I reakon they're better. They're a miniature rb. They're insanely cheaper, 2/3rds the size of an sr, lighter. And once you chuck arp's in them and good bottom end bearings they love life.

Mid mounted? :lolcry:

Spent some time sanding the old leather and used a leather repair-ness-ing kit

Feels good! Sits close. You lose the auto indicator off with it but meh. Will be replaced with a nardi after rego anyway :wink:

I know how i'm going to fix it. The twin cam wheel has an extra 2 holes in the back of the boss kit thing, you can see in the first photo.

 

The ke10 wheel has 2 dowels in the back of the wheel just flick the indicators off.

 

So i'm going to cut off some metal tube the right size and press it into the holes in the back of the twinky wheel, the spacing doesn't appear to matter
