Hello everybody! If you haven't seen my other thread about the GT-R turbos, here is another one

My name's Husam and I started this project almost a year ago. I officially had the engine back in by April and had it running and tuned by July.

It started when I stumbled upon a very cheap set of GT-R turbos with very low miles (20k). Got both turbos and manifolds along with inlets for $700 shipped to my house.

Here's a couple pictures for entertainment purposes.

Had another member who was very interested in the kit and is currently about to install his set of turbos verify that the GT-R intercoolers work without modifying them much.

Got my new clutch and flywheel from Z1.
Love how it feels compared to stock

Downpipes and GT-R bovs done locally for $400

Finally, the car ran and was dyno tuned back in August
(460 whp 375 tq with a boost leak and wastegate pressure).

I will be updating this thread when i have time this weekend hopefully
