LOL usually a widebody entails some widening of the fenders, not just a ledge over wheels. That genuinely looks like ass.

I had one on one of my turbos, it was kinda quiet, but louder than stock.

Sweet GN. Torque thrust II's look absolutely awesome on it.

Nice cars. Pics of the GN please

Connect the vac line from the compressor directly to the wastegate actuator. This will give you ~5psi all the time.

75 shot + lots of fuel.

Maybe they were looking because you punched it in a parking garage...

Beating a dead horse here. Those numbers are in no way even close to right.

Full time, its a mechanical linkage. 50/50

Ok, look at it this way: The mass flow rate through the compressor outlet has to equal the mass flow rate through the turbine inlet because an engine is a closed system. So, the volume flow rates can(and probably will) be different, because of the differences in temperature, pressure etc. The mass f...

example: Is it possible for a 10cf/m flow of exhaust to flow through a turbo and yeild a 15cf/m flow of charge air? all numbers are just for demonstration. Need more parameters. Volumetric flow rate is not enough to define a flow, you need temperatures, pressures, and fluid properties for both flui...

If you want a FWD you can have mine for free you just have to help me pull the motor and tranny out of my 92. Shifts good, I think it has about 175,000 miles on it (been a while since I looked at the odometer). Sounds like a cool car would love to see it stay on the road. I am going to put the moto...

I personally hate painted interiors, to me nothing says tackyness like random pieces of the interior painted a color which doesnt appear anywhere else , but then again this is your car not mine. You might draw unwanted attention to your screen too(which btw came out very nice)...

Yeah... Thats beyond clean!

Ok, I see. You're right that would be impractical. I am going to try to research how easy/hard a cable clutch swap would be. Then I could use pretty much any NA trans (FWD or AWD), right?

vrg3 wrote:I realize swapping to a turbo-type clutch may be impractical

It has the turbo clutch. I will need to swap that to a cable clutch in order to use the NA trans, right? Will the turbo shifter work on a NA trans.?

Also, I'm assuming any FWD trans should work, like this one?

Ok, this is going to sound like a very strange swap to be doing but circumstance has me trying to swap a FWD (or possibly an NA AWD) 5MT into my (already 5MT)SS. From some searching I found that the hydraulic clutch will not work with the NA trans, but everything else should be ok. I'm trying to fig...

Do the FWD for now and wait a bit until you have more money. Just swapping trannies should take a day, 2 if it's your first time. You'll save a bunch of time when you put the FWD tranny in because you won't have as much stuff to put back together. I want this car to keep going! :D Yeah, thats exact...

J/K, sorry to hear it. What are you gonna drive now?

I gotta drive my mom's shitbox 98 eclipse RS. I REALLY hate that car so I have to fix mine ASAP..lol

What happened to all those things? It is an SS...and all ss's have AWD... Guy who had it before me blew the rear end by driving around on a donut for a while, then took all that stuff out. I wanted to do the FWD 5MT because that would be the cheapest and easiest way to do it. I was lookin at this o...

I could but like I said, I will need a complete drivetrain to do the AWD swap, as my car has no driveshaft, rear end or rear axles. If I find it cheap enough, it's a possibilty.

Manarius wrote:or if you wanna fab up something nice...get a WRX 6MT

I wish! I can't even afford a AWD 5MT. The rear diff is smoked, so I would have to buy a complete drivetrain. If i go FWD I would just need the trans and axles, no rear diff, rear axles, driveshaft.

Well, I guess it had to happen eventually, but my trans. just blew so now I some choices to make. Either attempt to put a FWD 5MT in it, or part it out. The motor runs really good, but who knows how much time it has left, so I would be reluctant to put it in another car, plus I can't afford another ...
