Re: Grassroots-motorsports $2008 Civic Si Build 56K no way

I wanna say there weren't any stock skyline turbos that were ball bearing. The only ball bearing turbos on Nissan engines were on some S14 and S15's. I wanna say some Avenirs or Bluebird Sr20DET's and that's about it. Not even the GTR's were ball bearing. The later GTR's with the ceramic wheels were for faster spooling but still weren't ball bearing.

I heard it was BB from 2 people, and ceramic from 2 others...

it was cheap and it works!!!! ..

I will eventually go bigger and put something more substantial on , but for autocross this is perfect. the GRM courses are typically 40 secs long , so I don't want lag.

Center that FMIC

Then chop out under the headlights to the framerails so you fit your charge pipes

Everything is so nice and clean then you got that there
