Hello, Well the past few months has been fun. So i went ahead and bought the famed GT3582R to make it even more interesting! This turbo spins just by blowing into the inlet!!! I am hoping to incerase the spool time by 1000 rpms or better increaseing low end torque, and make 450 whp @ 18 psi. I am REALLY excited to boost this thing!!
Installing the GT was somewhat difficult. The whole downpipe had to be re-designed to accept the turbo The GT is a shorter turbo, and required water lines, something the T-4 did not need. I played with the idea of SS lines, but though it would look to jumbled. So I created them from Aluminum 3/8 tubing. They fit very close to the engine, and have a nice uncluttered look.
SDS has the option of going to a Distributorless ignition setup. I went ahead and ordered the system. It will give me better throttle response, and provide a shorter more direct pathway for the currant to run through to the plug, eliminating all the machanical contact points.

New wheels:
SSR GT2 19x9.5 wheels installed.
The Chrome trim, while it looked nice, did not fit into the picture any longer. I Blacked out the trim, and it really "finished" the look of the car.
After Xmas I will be starting the Big Performance Brake Upgrades. I need to stop it fast now.
The project continues...
