Front part of the exhaust will need changing too. Buy a GTT, much much simpler when considering registration hassles too....

what do you mean?

the engine i have found includes mainfold with the turbo on it.

and no, im not buying a gtt.

i couldnt give a rats about rego now lol once the rego runs out end of june she wont be registered again untll october,.and thats cause of the fact i got 3 shows on 3 consecutive weekends, and rego up here is cheaper than it is in adelaide :P

Front/dump pipe part that bolts to the back of the turbo will be different to your NA

You'll need to change engine number for registration and also more than likely *(I'm not 100% sure) you'll need an engineers certificate because of the turbo addition.

oh ok well getting a dump pipe aint that hard lol

not sure on the engineers certificate i know i have to fill out some form letting them (regency i think) know about the engine swap and they send me out a list of stuff i have to change, something like that. ill give em a buzz tomoro

diff, suspension, drive shaft.

im just plucking but there could be other potential things in there.

only benefit i see in moding the current 1 is you wont have to swap over your body kit. thought that woulda been an easier job than swapping an otherwise perfectly good engine out of a car.

and the stereo of course

diff i can get away with, i dont intend to be doing burnouts anyway

suspension is same as gtt (my lowered king springs and shocks are from gtt), clutch is gtt too

- 1 AGAIN to the media.

we are being blamed for a hep. A outbreak in our semi dries tomatoes. funny that seeing as :

A: we do not make them, they are grown/dried/packaged in queensland.

B: we do not supply interstate ( where other cases have been found)

C:we are haccp certified.

D: there are 3 other major suppliers of semi dries in adelaide, all of which come from the sphincter of the universe where food safety is nearly non existent. (ours are aus)

Once again, media blabbering without re-search.

:P

He still doesn't know :D His son does and also works with us, he sent me a message not long ago saying people were laughing and beeping all the way home and the old man couldn't figure out why :(

thats pure gold. lol nice work hahaha

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
