the possibility exists. originally i was told the motor was a rb20. then you chaps helped me determine that it was a rb25. factory turbo or not, it is now. but yes i posted that ish a while ago. now i am almost done with it...oh btw i did not originally put the motor in so i couldnt really tell you if it was in fact a factory turbo. either way this winter its getting rb26 internals and a metal hg (prob hks or apexi, i need to be as jdm as possible these days, i drive a domestic four banger daily and i need to make up the jdm points somehow....)lol but itll be a total rebuild after this winter...i hate michigan sometimes.... but yeah itll be done this weekend, i just need to put on the intake and hook up the harness, and that is already done so no wiring mess!! hurray!

May I ask how much did you pay?

ha ha this isnt brent, but he is in my club. i payed 2500 for the car. oh and btw...the hg wasnt blown. at all. nothing was wrong. whoever took the motor apart is a tard and didnt torque the head down right. last four bolts for 5 and six had scortch marks on them. but i decked the head and got new bolts. comp is even. but getting rebuilt this winter with rb26 pistons and rods and an hks hg. maybe more. but itll just need to movfe out of my garage for now.
