Re: start of h23 build
Not yet I don't, will very soon though (I get paid Wednesday, but don't get my car back so I can go meet up with Hitchikkr for another 1-2 weeks 
).
Not to mention my clutch dillemna. Oh well, he's just going to keep replacing them it seems.
What numbers would I be seeing when I started to need a bigger fuel pump? ~250? That's good that means one less thing to buy.

Re: start of h23 build
Cleaned some of the oxidation on the inside out, as well as a fair amount of rust on the outside. There are cracks on the outside. 
Some super-n00b (he's not even in n00b territory at all) offered $75 to the guy I got the manifold from for his 14b that has shaft play. I'm going to see how much I can get for that manifold I got today.
It's all supposed to go on an N/A '88 300zx.

Re: start of h23 build
I do not recommend a 14b on an h23, unless you like your powerband dying before 6500 rpm.
Not only that, but the heat produced by that small turbo at anything above 220whp is pretty stupid, for the power being made. You'll quickly put it out of its GOOD efficiency range. You'll end up having to retard timing because of the high heat causing pre detonation(at higher boost levels).
So, if you plan making over 220whp, don't go with a 14b. Get a 16g, at least.
H23's can handle 350whp+, stock block. Since JD will be tuning it, I'm sure it'll be safe too.

) so I can't go too crazy on it. I think the 14b at the factory setting on the wg will give me what I'm after, for now atleast.
