Edit: UPDATE ON PAGE 2!


the s*** exhaust...ended up selling it for $50 haha


since i had the exhaust off i decided to take the turbo off and manifold to check out the other leak.


i think this had something to do with it...


and the turbo was being held up by one f*** bolt, ONE f*** BOLT!!! WTF

WELL i fixed that leak and went and had some fun with the car at 10 and sometimes at 14psi






went to the lake(Carlyle, Ill) the other week with some friends...






my friend Eniz(coupe) Idriz(his on the forum) me


sorry about the zip ties...it had fell off while drifting and i just zip tied it on there...i got rid of the zip ties

thats it for right now...ill update when i get my parts in

[yourbullit]

i'm sure people will have a word for you about the racing, but i couldn't help but notice when i look at your car i see this.......


i like it

[badbob2121]

nice, i would recomend getting rid of that breather filter your running off your valve cover and run it back into your intake while you have it all apart... do some research if you dont trust my suggestion..

[Sabot]

looking good and keep us posted

Cast iron manifold? Who makes it? Just curious.

Looks good tho.

[MyNISMO314]

yeah its cast iron...a buddy of mine got it and its working really good for him so i got it to JDM Sport $95 free shipping cant beat it...only thing really is you'll have to port out the exhaust side make it a bit bigger bc its same as stock...you dont HAVE to but to make it flow better and s*** id recommend it

[Steady_One_S13]

Cool beans. Can't wait to see it installed.

[MyNISMO314]

yeah me too...currently laid off so it might take a while...just got laid off like a week ago so i didnt even start to receive my unemployment...hard to find a good job these days

[MyNISMO314]

is there an easy(er) way of getting the stock t25 off or is it the way i did it first by taking the manifold and unbolting the downpipe and the turbo lines and pulling it out as one? i just need to change the 4 bolt gasket and i just think there has to be a easier way to do it...anyone?

[Steady_One_S13]

I think it's easier to remove as a whole or as one. And much easier to put back as one. There's limited accessible space for tools. Especially around the turbo to manifold bolts.

Those last 4 pics look sick. Wonder who took them.

[MyNISMO314]

why is there "oil grease" its what it looks like in my IC pipe on the turbo intake side?


maybe just dirty orrrr?????.......

also got my top mount sort of mocked up...

took the old manifold to get rid of the blown gasket...found it easier if you can reach all the 4 bolts from the top so you dont have to disconnect the turbo lines and take the turbo off

and some more pics i found


i dont care what you think i like it



this is so far my favorite pic...shot with a cellphone nothing professional but cool

thats it for right now...hopefully ill have my turbo and lines soon

[MyNISMO314]

ooops a double post...idk if its just me but sometimes when im on NICO it doesnt want to load right away...anybody else deal with this?

[Midwest_240sx]

Are you the guy that I almost bought that orange hatch from for 2000 dollars a couple months ago?

[MyNISMO314]

maybe? i had an orange 240 before...idk more details would be cool

[MyNISMO314]

tried on some sportmax wheels on my car that i want to get 16x8 215/40/16 and im lowered on Eiboch Sportline





need bigger series tire at least a 50 series tire to fill in the wheel gap...i wants coils pretty bad

[Koshin]

it needs lower

SR's are notorious for loosing manifold bolts....I like your new manifold, stout

[nismobenzo]

any non hardparking/cruising shots

[nissans13240sx]

What turbo is that?

[numbnuts240]

considering how small it is, i'd venture out and say it's the stock t25.

[MyNISMO314]

any non hardparking/cruising shots

theres a third option? i thought if youre not cruising youre parked?..ill go try to make the car hover or float on water and ill post some pics up just for you...for real tho what kind of pics do you expect?..if im not cruising im going to be parked...heres a pic of mi stickers

now you cant tell if im hard parking or cruising

[MyNISMO314]

considering how small it is, i'd venture out and say it's the stock t25.

yeah its a garrett t25 nothing special but gets the job done

[nismobenzo]

i like how you have a drift sticker but dont know of anything besides crusing/hardparking

maybe i like drifting and maybe try it every once in a while in some random parking lots/ ever think of that?
