very nice silvia. i love the KA though. they are capable of making tons of power and they are torque monsters. but, you gotta be willing to spend to get there.
Thanks!
Yep Friend of mine is a huge contributer to KA-T.org he owns JGS Precision Turbo in Coos Bay Oregon. He was one of the pioneers for custom turbo manifolds and parts for the KA engine he was/still working on a Bi Turbo set up on his own KA powered shop car
I think his last project was a Twin Turbo 5.0 stang. Last I heard that beast was up and running Lance is crazy he will turbo anything

Celica post made me feel nostalgic so I thought I would post up my last car project!
This was my project for 3 years. I bought the car with a ricer style body kit and 18" rims. For what it was it looked alright was very clean and the body work was done right at least
After driving it around for a year like that on the stock KA24E truck motor I decided it was time to step up the game a little.
This is how the car was when I bought it. (I'll post more before shots later)
I tore off the bodykit and sold most of it off the front bumper was trashed.
So first thing first I needed more power.... So I looked into possible doing a Turbo kit on the KA and decided agents it cause in the long run it would have cost me more with a fresh rebuild and Kit then it was to go the route I did go.
I looked into the SR20DET (Overdone) CA18DET (Small engine but had a lot of torque) KA24DET (Dual cam American 240sx engine in the newer models)
I always wanted a Skyline so I went with the next best thing.... RB20DET! At the time I did this engine swap it was pretty spendy so not a lot of guy's did this swap due to costs and machine work to get it in the right way. Now day's with all the swaps going on people have made these parts streamline so they are easy to get and easy to install.
I had to get custom engine mounts made, Balanced Drive Shaft and a Tranny cross member made. It was totally worth every penny the RB20DET was an inline 6 cylinder single turbo very smooth acceleration and loads of torque. I had mine running at 13psi with 243hp at the wheels on pump gas.
The car was a blast to drive and I miss it! A whole lot of blood sweat and tears went into this ride! I'll build another one someday!
Never really showed this car off much so I thought I would share.

Sweet looking Celica, Those engines are pretty rare alot of the drifters try to find those to replace their [edit] 4A-FE in those RWD AE86 Corolla's.
Those things get down and dirty for being a N/A engine.
Old School right there I dig it!

i think it was something to do with the stuff in the amps vibrating loose on several people.
I never had a problem with them though, 4 15" apx and 4 of those exact amps, was fun times. I miss my truck
Interesting, The local shop back in my home town built a Escort for his daughter it had 2 of those 3000d and 4 Crystal CMP 15's it was never metered but damn it was very intense.
-
Impressive for a single driver!
Are you running the XA-3000d? Those amps are no joke not sure why people bag on PB so much there top end stuff it really nice and easy on the wallet.

man i want those kickers i had a set of 10's like that and they fukin pounded, if i can get the money ied get 2 of em, are they dual 4ohm or single 4ohm? would make some good midbass's or mid/sub bass's for my truck or run in my geo off my majestic 300 how many watts did u have goin to em? hell i might get all 3 if we can work somethin out good, aint 3 4ohm subs like 1.5ohm with independance rise?
They are Single 4ohm coils, I had a Phoenix Gold Sapphire SA3.0x 300w RMS so around 150 each. They did really well. I only ran 2 I was trying to locate a 4th but never had any luck finding one in good condition like mine.
You can use them for both Mid Bass (they are kinda deep for mounting) or just subwoofers they can do both.
Let me know if you have anymore questions.
100 bucks for all 3 is a pretty good price Shipping is whats going to be the killer these lil fuckers are heavy for 8"
I am about to post them up on the bay let me know if you want to work something out.
Thanks

Well Rockband is on it way
That will at least get me going.
And Wii fit is kickin my ass
Rock Band is a blast, Its a great party game even better when drinking!
-
If I get rockband for the Wii, can I use the guitar for Guitar Hero? Or doI need to get that kit too?
You can use the Guitar Hero Controller for Rock Band, But you cannot use the Rock Band Controller for Guitar Hero, I ran into this on the Xbox360 version.
Not sure if its the same for the WII or not.

Bump! New Stuff added!
Just waiting to be bought by you!

OK...... who else has noticed this banner on top? I saw it today and thought it was a joke. Not that I'm homophobic or anything. Just curious at the fact how did that get mixed into the banner mix? I figured we'd see more automotive banners.
Gay.com?
if thats it then yes I saw it too.

I submitted a more detailed description on moviemistakes.com I'm just waiting if they agree. I have quite a few on there.
Post it up on www.imdb.com see what you can come up with there.

no one saw the usual suspects and remembers the scene? It's so good.
I saw that movie the day it came out in 95.
Kevin Spacey was phenominal in that flick, The whole movie flowed very well.
I do remember the scene and I think there was a scene that was cut out that tied into that cop scene you are discribing, so yeah it really wouldn't make much sense.
Great movie still one of my all time favorites. Brilliant piece done by Bryan Singer you need to watch it again there is so much more that I am sure you missed

Audiobahn is now sold. Rest is still up for grabs!
My Sil80 240sx Build (non Stereo Build)

Those are 100% Original JDM triple projector beams from the 92+ Silvia. They are the most expensive so alot of Sil80 conversions like to use the Dual Sealed Beams or the Duel Projectors with out the fog lights to save a lil money.
That front bumper was hard to get those came stock on certain Silvias in Japan they called it the Aero bumper, Again most use the Turbo bumper wich had a different look non agressive look. Both of them have an aftermarket lip that really set off the look.
