Re: she wont spool :(
heh, its a fairly large turbo but suited to the engine (i matched the engine with the turbo maps)
somepeople down here use bigger turbo's with the RB30.. (rb30 is a very popular engine down here)
yeah anyway engine issues are fixed, bolted oil lines back on last night and removed stock manifolds
modifying dump pipe this weekend, should have it done then

Re: she wont spool :(
hahaha 
best of all their dirt cheap
they rolled out SOOOOOO many of them and they cost $500-1500 AUD (400-1200 USD)
the honda's are expensive as over here like a crappy crx will cost you $7000
ive got 3 spare engines for my car, and im going for a job at the local wreckers so i can get more parts, and a daily driver
the cars got
4x power windows
power mirrors
full good interior
cruize control
trip computer
all that crap so it was pretty hightech for 1989
i got it for $2500AUD 3 years ago spent $10,000AUD on it in total (including car cost)
gonna build a transmission for it and a new engine for it (probbly based on the last of the buick engines they used)
it has a LN3 in it at the moment (buick boys will know what im on about)
tonight the dump pipe gets hacked and i get to boosting it again
it weighs 3300 lb, makes 165hp @ engine and around 130rwhp atm, with 10psi boost and a few goodies 300rwhp + is pretty easy to get, over there you have the buick grand national turbo's making like 1000rwhp + they have the really high flowing heads, the LN3 has restrictive heads
i got a spare set im porting at the momentto see if i can get maybe another +20rwhp
