I have the 800cc SARD's - The units fit right in on the stock rail; I didn't have to lower it or anything, But I did modify the plugs slightly to fit the stock harnesses... they fit and work fine now. I basically just shaved down the tabs on the injectors so they don't collide with the stock harnesses and clipped them on. :D

I'm about to pull the trigger on buying a new pair of -5s, but a Greddy T517Z came up for sale for a lot cheaper after the Yen/USD conversion rate. Should I stick to the original plan of picking up the -5 or save some money and get the Greddy kit? Also, would the 900cc SARD fit right in like the 800cc ones would? Thanks in advance guys!

Have a search on here but the general outcome is the -5's come on a bit more (there have been a couple back to backs).

I did see a thread about comparing the two, but I wish they gave more info on the Trust turbos such as if it's ball bearing or journal bearing, etc. Maybe I'm not searching well enough, but I couldn't find that info anywhere.

Never mind, I found a decent thread from another forum. Anyone have experience with both T517Z and -5s that could tell me if there was a big difference in the two or not?

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
