what's up guys, 87 mkiii turbo over here in WA

[87mgte]

i was all about Nissan until on the first day of this school year, i bought a white mkiii turbo for $1200 and of course it has a few problems. not too horribly many, but enough to keep me busy.
needs a valve cover breather hose [ordered],
vaccuum lines comin off the intake accordian tube [probably gonna fabricate those],
a valve cover gasket [and some pressure washing afterwards cuz there's oil EVERYWHERE],
and a few power steering leaks here and there should probably get some attention soon.
i've seen these cars go for $4500 all day, completely stock, so i had no interest whatsoever only because i thought they were no where near my price range. but now... woo i couldn't be happier. :icon_bigg

welcome

what are your plans?

welcome i too got lucky with my 87 i snathced her up for 800 bux and it only needed a turbo and a couple boost leaks fixed:icon_razz

what are your plans?

haha sick brotha, i think i have a lot of boost leaks too cuz my boost gauge doesn't show at all, even when i rev to like 5 grand. i know it works though cuz it shows 0 when i turn the ignition to acc. and it shows vaccuum at an idle, so i'm guessin it's just a boost leak somewhere.
but i'm planning on:
full upper [intake] i/c piping with a ssqv [cooleeze]
blitz nur spec and a divorced downpipe
LIPP adaptor and 3 inch filter
b&g lowering springs 1.6"

and then when i eventually blow the HG,
hks metal 2mm HG
cams, gears

and that's basically it for now, hopefully i'll be makin like 400whp by the time i'm done with everything, i'm hopin my stock internals are gonna make it to 350 at least.

what all have you done to your poopra?
