Well the way the intercooler pipe attaches on the t3 is awesome. i clocked the t3 so that i dont need to route the intercooler pipe over the hot exhaust log manifold. that also let me shorten the IC pipe by maybe 2.5ft so less lag >> my old route wasnt that good the heat from the manifold super heated the pipe. so this should help a bunch. now i have a few questions. if i buy an aftermarket walbr 255 high pressure pump will the stock fuel pressure regulator on the fule rail basicly nulify me even having the pump? should i get rid of it? also im going to tap the other end of the fuel raid so i have a dual feed one that way no cylinder will be sarved of fuel.

question number 2. i dont wanna take my oil pan of to tap it. before i was using the dipstick tue as a return. it worked great but i wasnt abl to check my oil >> so im gunna tap the pan.

heres the plan drill a hole in the pan. weld on a think washer. tap the washer. thread in pipe bam done. but my dad says the welding will possibly light the oil resin that wasnt drained totally. sooo
safe than sorry? or just try it lol.

take off the oil pan and do it right

it only takes RTV to seal it again.

take it off, and put a barbed fitting, drill the hole, but the threaded part of teh barbed fitting in the pan, then get a nut and rubber washer and tighten her down, then top it off with some JB weld.

let it dry overnight and put the pan back on.

took me an hour to remove the pan, drill it, tap it(didnt have to do that) then put the nut/rubber washer on with some JB weld.

looking good so far, get back in that garage and finish up

just saw the part about the 255lph pump

it helps having the pump, its more flow than the stock one, which means more gas in the cylinders.

what do you have fuel management wise?

i would go safer than sorry.

Let us know how that turbo works out! It looks so shiny >>

i have everything from the last turbo setup. 315cc injectors , safc, btm, ik22 plugs ect. all in profile im adding a pump to see if it makes a difference. on he dyno chart with the stock pump it didnt lean out to much at all butid rather be safe on this.

also for tapping the pan i got a new idea im sure will work. back to the hardware store >>

yea, its more of a safety thing.

itchy, why not grab a 3s pan off one of the guys on mr2oc.com or alltrac.net?
u can usually get em for about 50 or so shipped.. >>
setup looks sweet so far, we're gonna HAVE to get together once your up and running again!!!!!! >>

or I think its 110 new from the dealer.

If you tap the pan while on the car you have a chance of a shaving getting in your pan and then up to the cams. Play it safe. while having the pan off you could get solid motor mounts made also.

thats what i ment to ask >> motor mounts where can i get Strong ones? or am i gunna make them?

i'd have Nuke make them. i remember him making a post here about them but Im sure you'll catch him ALOT faster in ctech.com

nice setup. i wish i could run my IC piping that short.

i would upgrade those injectors to 440s tho.

i plan to run 5 psi till i can afford sum rc 550's i not gunan punish the 5sfte till i get them >>

save up for a wideband too. they are getting cheaper and u will be able to correctly street tune the car.

ill tune it at the dyno like before much easier for me there having all graphs printed and not worring about speeding

Hey will Dsm rc injectors work there top feed, my friends say they will, why not?
i can get them cheap from his wrecked eclipse gst

What's stopping you? why can't your compressor housing be re cloccked? Is there something in the way?

that cheap?

idk, when i was buying a 7afe oil pan to put my car back to stock for warranty work, toyota wanted $400 for the damn thing!

got it at a junkyard for $100, i didnt even try to lower the price, being that it was so much cheaper than the dealer.

Hey Jon. Don't do it the ricer way through your dip stick this time >> Def. drill and tap the pan and put an NPT barbed fitting on there!

I'm not too sure if i like that manifold man....but im used to the cast iron Nissan peices.
