Do you know what internals were used in the motor build? What flange is on the turbo? So you do not have to change manifolds.

The car at 15lbs would get you near the 300hp mark. Ever have the car dynoed? Personally I wouldn't buy a new turbo, unless you want more. You could probably get away with running 15 on the motor if you have it properly tuned. The new GT25 is suppose to be a good turbo, but I am still running a stocker so don't listen to me

What flange is on the turbo you are using? I would really look into building the motor with forged pistons and rods and make sure it is all up to standards put some cams and a different turbo and you could go to the moon on power. What about a Manual boost controller?

I have a manual boost controller on mine. Only cost about $175, completely worth it. I was just reading up on the 25t turbo, and I saw a lot of, "The turbo will take a dump after 15psi" I say since you plan on spending money on a rebuild, why not drive that one into the ground and see just how much you can get out of it!
That's what I am planning on doing anyway.

Hey every one I am looking for my second card. I went through the whole get a junk car and going through the first few years of driving in now, floods, and plenty of road conditions.I have had my eyes on the Nissan Skyline for quite some time now and every thing I have heard and read about them is amazing.
I currently own a Honda CRV but really want to switch over to a more sports car/coupe feel.I know they where never really released in America except for a few shipped to Canada and into America. I was wondering what peoples views on the Skylines are, also what do people suggest as a medium to higher range performance sports cars.
