    Poll: Turbo choices

    If you were closer you could borrow my spare GT30R ;)! I'd go for rebuild2 on the CT for the experience as I hate being beaten by a mechanical things!

    wtf kind of race was that (US grand prix)

    I used to ride my mountain bike in on one of the practice days to soak up some atmosphere then go home and watch it on TV! (missed the last few years due to being a lazy bastard)

    Installed my BIC DP and 3" exhaust..

    Either BHG from the exhaust guy thrasing it if you weren't there watching or maybe just oil and crap burning out of the new pipes? (mine did it for a day or so)

    Supra Holset Dodge turbo Project revisited

    Supra Holset Dodge turbo Project revisited

    Oil Pressure Sending Unit

    The block is tapped 1/8th BSP. There are a couple of points in the block that are tapped so maybe you could screw the stock sender in where it belongs and use one of the others with an adaptor for the Mech gauge?
