anyone selling a used turbo for the Z?
 

anyone selling a used turbo that is fully working for the Z, can be twin, single, or rear mounted turbo.

Wrong forum. From a lot of your posts it appears you are trying to do FI on the cheap. I would strongly, strongly recommend against that.

If you are trying to slap together your own kit using a bunch of used parts be prepared to enter a world of hurt. You're better off trying to force feed a Ruckus.

Our cars are very finicky. Some of the owners here with custom kits can chime in. It's not for the faint of heart. It's your hobby, but if you can do it with lots of patience props to you. Give me a brand new kit and this stuff is already over my head.

We're here to prevent you from months of downtime, spending more money in the end, and blowing up your motor... leading to more down time and more money spent. Get a legit kit with a good installer and you'll be up in running in a week.

Cost-wise, modifications of this magnitude is very costly. I spent a couple of years saving up for this project AND saving for a down payment on a house. It's financially wreckless, but I try to plan very well. I may be spreading myself a little thin this year, but I managed to achieve having a nice house and force fed car. It takes lots of financial planning and balance.

:stirthepot:

sounds like i will have to hold on a year or two to get fi for my car and just save up.

It sounds like you need to do RESEARCH first. Money buys things, but incompetence will get you nowhere.

What he said ^^ and more, not for the feint of heart. Do it right the first time or you very likely regret it.

U get was u paid for.. alot of ppl don't understand that. But yea save up n u won't regret it.. =)

Geez take it easy killer. we don't all have custom turbo or supercar money here :stirthepot:

:icon18: Haha, I wasn't trying to be that rude. Research is key to going FI in my opinion. With any big dollar investment, it requires adequate research. Research will pay off if/when you have sputtering issues, hard start issues, AFR issues, smoking issue, etc. You can at least know how to diagnose the problem without having to have the car towed to a shop everytime.

how much did building your single turbo kit run u anyways?

With all the necessary accessories (clutch, flywheel, injectors, gauges, etc), I was at more than 2x the cost of a Boosted Performance single turbo kit. :crying:

I bet....and a lot of people don't realize how much it really costs to boost these cars properly. If you were to buy just the parts that are used in the twin scroll kit at retail, you would be approaching the price of the kit. Then, you have to get somebody to actually fabricate a kit out of all the parts. Custom fabrication is not cheap.

You were the first and had a lot of obstacles to take on. I applaud your effort. It made my life easier and things a whole lot cheaper doing it after your trial and errors. I owe you more than a beer, ill get u a keg delivered!
