a word of warning now dont skrimp on major parts if your gonna do it do it right the first time :)

there a bloody lot of fun tho even with 300 or 350 there aint alot that will kepp up with ya i love embarressing the porshe boys when they come up side of ya with there lady friend in the passenger seat and they go to put there foot down and you sit with them then leave them best feeling ever seeing there face

just give us a shout when you want some arps ill sort you out :)
I drive my dads car quite often thats 280hp and is very fun, but it's a bit boring now. After going in a Skyline engine'd E30 with 360hp, I wanted to turbo mine.

I will be taking my time doing things, at the minute I haven't got the cash to go out and buy everything so it will be done in stages.

I haven't even thought about brakes or suspension yet either.

Jamie that's what I done I took it off the Rd took me over 2 years to do it
and I've knowingly spent over 7 k on the last count and I've spent more than that now so I rekon it's over the 10k mark easy lol

Mesaage to all the turbo builders you are entering a a whole world of hurt lol and fun at the same time.
I have mine up and running for over 4 years now and it has more re-incarnations than elvis but it is great fun TBH you will struggle to see the wrong side of 400bhp without some serious engine mods as i have been there done it and felt the price. 350 bhp is more than enough as you will break things alot of things at that point...
Please everyone set obtainable targets as you will never hit the power of the sweeds Norwegiens as we are RHD and cannot run the downpipes.

@ Ross keep going fella looks sweet i just want some one to purchase mine as it has all been done i think i have priced it cheap considering you have dropped 10K already..
Sorry to hijack your therad but as i helped you in your build i though i would pass on my information/knowledge :D 8)

it does roar when it comes on boost with a 3inch exhaust straight tho
it does sound good
no worries fella if you need any help just let us know as I said I'm only near bedford I'm not far from ya :)
