its a hatchback SE model with a redtop SR in it with Jspec LSD, Ghetto Greddy FMIC (the core is from an integra turbo kit and the piping is custom), off brand intake cone, full 3" exhaust. My problem is that the A/C and PS is not hooked up. The guy that I got it from said that the lines just need to be made due to it being a 90 model for the A/C. as for the PS the lines need to be installed for it as well. Does anyone have an idea what I'm talking about? any feedback would be greatly appreciated. oh and also the gauge cluster has an issue. the speedo is off by like 10 mph and i think the tach is off too.

The ps lines need to come from a DOHC S-13

You can get some ac lines but you gotta bend the lines to clear the turbo.

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta!

Thanks for the information, I called Truboost, a local shop and forum sponsor and they told me that they could help me out. I'll let everyone know how it goes and how much it cost.

Thanks again.

yeah the Z was a great car. I just needed a car with a back seat. (married with a two year old.) So the Z had to go. I've had 3 TT Z's they are awsome machines and I will have another one one day.

Here is a pic of the engine bay and a link to my twinturbo.net profile listing my mods.

yeah right! a VG30DETT is a ***** to work on. that swap would be a nightmare! I'm going to stick with the SR20DET parts are so cheap for it and I have to just get one of everything rather than 2 like with the Z.
