I upgraded the turbo to a Garret T3 but the standard skyline intercooler wasn't big enough. This intercooler I have on the car now is actually of a truck which has been cut in half which improved the performance greately. I have the boost set at 12 psi. The computer has been remapped and a 300ZX airflow meter. It has a commo 5sp gearbox, SCI bov, pod filter, 2 1/2" exhaust. I had the group A front bumper all cut and molded to fit the intercooler aswell as the rear bumper to fit the wagon as the exhaust comes out differently than the sedan. Side skirts and bonnet scoop completed the group A look. I picked up the VX SS 17" mags for a good price. As yet it has not gone down the strip yet but I'll have to strengthen the drive chain. More pics to come. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
