DA9 Turbo
 

hey guys im new to this new home made turbo website...but i thought id show u guys what iv been up tooo and see what u think so far, still work in progress and more is going to be done.

SO.........
After a long time I finally have something I can drive and ENJOY!!!!
I started with a 1993 Nissan sentra CLASIC

After driving that around for a year and the g/f leaving me and taking all my ---- including the car I decided I’m going to start a project...

What inspired me was my best friend Jon. he had a awesome and clean db1

We worked on his car for a wile, rims stereo upgrade rim, and finally, did a B16a1 swap with the s1 tranny and loved it YouTube - Integra b16
But sometimes fun comes to an end...were in this case, his fuel line bursted shorted the pump and lit his car on fire

after driving it around for a wile and paying some stuff off, I started to save some for some little things to make it look a little more sexier something worked...others was just a waist of time and now it's off(like under glow)

And I think that looked to "rice" so I took them off" THE NEONS ARE OFFF!!!!!

Got some new rims, lowered my car with skunk 2 springs, some headlights and that's all I wanted to do when it comes to the outside.

ENGINE:

So I started off with a stock B18a1 with an YS1 tranny

First mod: a COOL AIR INTAKE!!!!! Not lots of power but it sounded cool and throttle response was better.

Then I painted my Valve cover.

Put in a DEL SOL SI dual core 1/2 rad and junked the a/c so my engine ended up looking like this.

Drove around for a while liking to but then I did some hmk on forced induction and it let me go TURBO
At first I thought this wasn’t going to be a hard task. run some pipes do some exhaust work this and that, more I got into it the more I realized I better take my time doing this. So after 6 months of working my car and making sure every time I installed a new part it would have to drive 6hr's b/c I always did it at my parent’s house. I ended up getting a turbo kit and installing it like SO.

Removed all the A/C stuff

Put in the intercooler ran all the piping, made a whole in the side of my car to run the piping. Installed a custom washer bottle, got my bov welded and some holes shut and ended up with my final product. I just have to clean up the engine bay, get a new battery, relocate it in the back, do some body work…

dont bash it up too much, it's still a work in progress, most of it was done at my dad's garage so most of it is home made, but w/e lol, but i think im doing allright for now considering iv had the car for one year. and no to much funds...

Inside.

I haven’t done too much, DEH 5900 poineer gauges boost and a/f LED swap and 2 10” subs type “S” with a Mono v12 alpine amp and a CAP

updated news, i have a new tranny going into it, a gsr ys1 and also a new t3/t4 turbo with a better tune.

That front end shot looks nice. I love DA integras and would love to boost one.

looks good tiny turbo, but better than no turbo. i like it/good job

Yea the turbo is small but quick spool and stays in the range where I wanted it, but never the less bigger is better so a t3t4 setup is underway

nic job man

last picture is just cherry. i like it what a turn around

looks very good, but I want to see bigger turbo on it.

me too, and that's y i was gonna go t3/t4, but because of time and a place to put it all together, the car is going up for sale, i just bought a 04 maxima 6speed for, the space, the style, the power, and i wont have to work on it as often:P but i allready got and intake and iv been looking at some new chips to buy for it to gain a good amount of hps.... so i might be looking at a new money pit car that im going to be spending time and money i dont have on it...

looks sweet keep u the good work

i hope that maxima has a factory warranty and that the chip you plan on putting in it does not void said warranty. nissans have been extremly unreliable for some time now
