well. no power adders so far..other than pulleys if that counts.motors bone stockIt will drift so im happy for now

only thing that sux is the 4.08 rear end.its horribly matched for that motor.

KYB GR2s and Nopi #1 Springs ha( got em for 40bucks)the springs ride good to be honest. i was surprised.my struts arnt blown yet either.so about a month and no blowing..( hope i didnt jnx.. i need them to last atleast another 2 months)

but the setup handles mountain roads extremely wellpaired with the bfgoodrich gforces i Love it.

im fond of boost.this motor was readily available when i needed one. and fairly cheapif i had the money at the time i would have gotten a det.

it wont cost me but 700 or so too boost this. so thats what i plan to do.

although the N/A has potential.boost is easier.. and im lazy...

i did pick up another KADE to play around with so idk what ill do really.

yeah gr2s arent bad at all.. ive had good experiances with them..

i say you boost the n/a sr.. its going to flow better than a det would since its n/a and it has bigger ports.

Looks nice. Clean! Less is more imo. Cars look ugly when there's too much going on.

best investment so far.went from a welded to this.

i will NEVER do welded againso much more streetable.i love it.

yeah i plan on leaving internals the way they are and just boosting.200-230 should be safe for stock n/a sr internals.

so a repetitively small turbo- t25/28 and ill be happy.im not power hungry.

Looking very good my friend.

I have really been wanting to get out and take some pictures! Mainly of different roads that just look cool (Sounds lame I know). Do you think if i posted pictures of cool roads i like to drive on, it would be a waste of a thread or people would join in and post their favorite roads as well?....

Any who, car is looking wonderful.

One Love,

Ghasty

thanks manand yeah i think if there was enough interest yeah the thread could work.but thing is. most guys don't hit up their fav. roads that often(my fave roads are ways away) so it may take a while for them to get some pics

Welded is ok.its just that ok.

for daily it sucksfor drift. its great. but your prone to under steer

its hell on your car/drive train

but bottom line it gets the job done.thats why i did it.but it gets old. some people can get used to it some cant.i got used to it on my old car. but hated it on my current car.

if you can find a used clutch type lsd. don't hesitate to buy it.it will be a great investment.

Thanks for the love guysi try with this car.its come a long way in 6 months.form a shell to this.thanks for all the comments

so what would you suggest for a rear end on an N/A SR?

4.36 or do you need to go lower? like 3.76?
