Are you wanting to use 4 ITBs one for each intake port or 2 ITBs for each rotor? Either way, look into this guys. They make it look easy.

i'm guessing 1 per rotor would make the most sense...

 

Love the build and the ITB idea. Have been pondering the possibilities of it myself for when I get the chance to begin my build. And, for the record, mine is named Roxxy. Just had to add the extra x, shes been around a bit.

 

Looks great VJ. Best of luck with the build.

 

thanks guys!!

today is the last day before i start tearing her to bits again for the new twins build

gota do a photo shoot today, so im enjoying driving her all over the place today

 

PIMP DADDY KANE!!!It looks awesome

 

thinking im going to have to watch u and this manifold/ITB setup.. very interesting, might have to see bout doing it for my twins. cant wait to see this!

 

Jose,

Awesome car and great pics.

I don't see and explanation, and I'm wondering what your goal is with those 2 turbo's? Is it quick spool up, or high end power? Are they going to be sequential?

Asking because mine is going single with the idea of short spool up time, as close to the original twins as possible, and good midrange with approx 400hp.

Thanks

 

the idea behind this setup for me is quick spool up while still making decent power without having to max out a small turbo

power + reliability (relatively speaking)

and also

my name is VJ ...i think u guys have me confused with a Jose?? lolol

 

Well for the forum sake, you are JOSÉ now.

 

lolol alright

 

Hey VJ,
Awesome build man, very interested in how this twin turbo kit turns out. I'm too poor break away from the stock twins yet, but i'm going non seq.

 

bad *** build keep up the good work loving that miss shift plate!!!

 

i honestly had no plans of doing this build anytime this year...i just went poor man's non-sequential a month ago

then i found these turbos on ebay for an unspeakably low price
this guy was upgrading these turbos from his 350z twin turbo kit

thanks for the great reviews guys!!!

 

quick little update here guys...i got the turbos in the mail this weekend!!! woot woot

here are some pics!!

 

and here are some pics at saturday nights shoot...the last day for her for a while...now its off to ISS Forged...can anyone say turbo build time!!!

 

i'll post up the pictures from that shoot when they're done...and video as well!!!

 

Very nice and a great project!
I hope to see the photo shoot!

greetings!

 

good work nice car

 

I love your seats. How do you like the E-01? How do you like the EDFC Teins?

 

the seats are one of my favorite upgrades...they really change the feel of car, makes it feel like a little go cart!

E-01 is hands down the best boost controller you can buy

i've had a couple already (profecs, blitz, apex'i, hks) this one is definitely the best


the EDFC is awesomeeeee

when you're tracking the car is great because you can change the damper settings on the fly rather than having to go a lap come in and change the settings, then do another lap and come in and change the settings....its a great upgrade to get with compatible Tein coilovers

Did you get the car repainted at some point, or is it just a really good wax and polish job? The paint looks so good in that last set of exterior picture!

P.S. Nice job on the rim/color selection. I've looked at a lot of rims, but something about SSM that competes with the silver in a lot of rims and don't seem to matchup well.

 

no sir this car has never been repainted...i got her in '08 and did a very in depth clay bar job on it and then wax

and now i clay bar the car twice a year, and wax once a month to keep the paint like that

gona get it properly repainted in the same SSM soon though...theres a bunch of little imperfections in the paint...you can only do so much to save 16 year old paint lol

 

Photoshop is your FRIEND...
