Does anyone have any suggestions on a specific size turbo I can use for putting my own kit together. There are some many different turbos out there, but which one can I get the best preformance out of at a reasonable boost for a daily driver?what color paint?

Son, What The f***?Asking about turbo size then a poll about paint color? That hurts mah bwain. :(

(T3/T04 seems to be the general consensus for a great KA turbo for high power but resonable delivery)

T3/T04E 50 trim, .63 a/r compressor should work lovely.

Ball bearing up grade + GTR badge = even more fun fun fun!!

Oh wait the GTR badge was just on your Altima......:rolleyes

T3/T04e, 360 thrust bearing, .63 A/R, 50 trim or 57. That's what I have and it's in use on my friends KA-T right now, damn the things spools good. You don't need the super expensive ball bearing upgrade...but it would be nice.
