I had no idea the first gen came in turbo, im guessing I've never seen one becuase it was only availably in japan. Neat.
I'd love to see more pics of the engine, in particular, the stock turbo, and the manifolds.

This is my 12AT. It is in the car but not finished yet. Some parts are out for powder coating. It should be done in two weeks. I will have more pictures then.

That 12at pops up all over the place you would think that after a year of being on e-bay he would drop the price.

Are you referring to mine? A previous owner had it on e-bay at one point in time but now it's not for sale.

I have some pics of my original 12a Turbo

Lets just see if i can dig them up for you guys. Warning, pics are freekn huge! And upside down.. And the engine is hella dirty! Take it easy, i have cleaned it up now



By the way, these cars came with two different turbos, one is smaller than the other (GT turbo). I of course bought the large one! (GTX) There is only a 5 bhp difference, but the GTX is rarer and more sought after. Its even more expencive than a Turbo II over in Japan!

Oh, i only paid about 4000 dollars for mine, almost mint, with only 60000 miles on the clock. That was FREIGHT included from Japan to Europe!!!

Have a look at www.kaizousha.com, they have a couple of nice 12A turbos

people from norway are special. They have super cool cars that they ship over fromn japan with redic. low miles and for super cheap. But can they buy an assault rifle or protect themselves from the commies with Sven ( that one dude in their standing army)? NO! I say we go get his jdm rx. WHOS WITH ME?!?!?!?!?!
