What you got planned....

What do you have planned for your car?

I plan on selling my supercharger, and then selling my car after I get air struts.

Then with that money, i plan on getting an Acura Legend GS (91-95). Get a type II engine swap, 6 speed tranny, frank 5 turbo, reinforce the engine, fuel pump, bore and port anything possible, port and polish, external wastegate, o2 housing,full piping, intercooler (24 inch jdm), try and find JDM rims. And then plop a real clean bodykit on there, and get JDM headlights. itll be a nice lil sleeper.

Hmm plans for the Z... drive it... a lot . I am fighting three thoughts in my head, but the Z is staying the way it is for now...

1) Project car, most likely 240z w/ charged LS1

2) Save money until after college, then dump into Z mods like internals, turbo, etc... do it right the first time with lots of cash

3) Save money until after college, buy a daily driver, GUT the Z and swap a built RB26DETT in with the RB25 rwd tranny...

Well...since I've discovered my block is on it's way out, I'm considering more cubes....maybe a turbo'ed 389 or 408 stroker motor. With a few adapters everything on the motor now will fit and with a little "massaging" of the engine bay the turbo should fit. Aside from that...maybe a cowl hood and eventually a full repaint (the car was repainted long before I bought it and they didn't do the best job...but you'd only notice if you're insanely anal about your car like I am).

well, ive had a change of heart on my plans.... ive decided to keep the civic, but dump the supercharger.

I also am going to experiment here. this may sound stupid but i think it could be interesting.

from what i hear, the KLZE gives out after 65,000 miles and just runs at the hp as a stock kl-03. So...im dumping the engine, and supercharger, (keeping them both just in case). I am then gonna go and buy a single turbo put it on the stock KL-03, and get ignition, pistons, bore, port and polish, bascially everything i was gonna do with the legend but with the probe isntead....its a lot lighter then other cars, and i am getting rid of the back seats and getting a rollbar once its fast enough to the point where i feel i need one. Reason for turboing is cause i really love the sound, and I just wanna play around with the performance of it on an autotranny. Supercharger looks great, but then again it barely loses any boost through shifting, but turbo on a manual does, so i was thinking...maybe it will react like a supercharger and never lose any speed. hmm. now im excited

Ya know....you can buy a speaker to do that for you and keep the SC.

My plans for my car....

1. Remove CAI and put back on stock intake.
2. Drive it till it dies.
3. Before car dies, buy a fun car such as S2k, 330, or IS300.

Once this semester is over I'll finally have time to install my procharger. After that I'll need stronger axles, clutch, and light weight flywheel.

Umm, my first plan is to get mad jelous of Thermal cause he will have 2 Boosted cars before i will even have the one.

Ok, i want to replace my struts with Koni Yellows and do some minor body work on my car.

Then after that its gonna be the 99SI Greddy turbo kit with an FMU and Missing link instead of the blue box.

Yay for Procharger. ATI owns you in the blower market.

Not that many options for my max right now. My parents said i must keep it stock cause they aren't going to buy me another car anytime soon, since this is my second one in a year and 4 months. But i'm deffinetely lowering it, Mille Miglia rims, a better clutch and reupholstering my interior.

Dont be jealous bro. I'm broke as fuk.... he he he he... I have 80% of what I need to for the turbo Teg project. I'll post pix soon.

My advice on your fuel management, dont spend the extra cash for the FMU and mising link combo. Ride around with the gas hungry blue box for the time being. Save up and get a Hondata and a minimum of 440cc injectors. It'll be worth it. You'd be able to run more boost on stock internals with a well-tuned Hondata....
