    Might buy 87 Na -> Turbo.. but rusty

    take a peek at my build thread (in signature). Mine had a little more visible rust than that, but underneath the car is where it got hit the hardest. The rear fender wells are very susceptible to rusting out...poke around up there for a while. If anything feels soft, chances are it has been...

    Just how much does your subframe move?

    You remove the subframe and pop them out. That doesn't look like a hell of a lot of movement, but they might be rusted out. If you have a press, they are easy to replace.

    Steering rack knock

    I had to swap the units over when I got my re-manned rack. Do you have both units side by side? If the racks look the same, there should be no problem.

    wheel well coating

    head on down to mopac auto supply - they carry a pretty wide range of the por-15 stuff. I highly recommend the rust preventative paint.

    How much do you boost in 1st gear?

    I'm not so sure your problem lies with your boost controller. If it did, the minimum boost you should be hitting is whatever your wastegate would normally open at. I can hit positive manifold pressure pretty much instantly slipping the clutch from 4.5K, but this is with a much smaller turbo.

    Part number for jza70 front lip and brake ducts?

    it is much cheaper if you know where to look (champion toyota) ordered the lip last week as a matter of fact, so there are now 6 in the US.

    20psi at 2800 rpm's. 800rwhp. Compound turbos!

    It will certainly be laggier...but your manifold pressure is still +20 psi irrespective of what the large turbo is doing. I'm sure it takes some tinkering with the sizing to avoid a dip in the boost vs rpm chart from this lag though.
