I like it, I think It would look better with a lip spoiler.
Sucks about the head, I've got one from an jdm na engine you could have. I won't be in Vic till August but I could throw it on a greyhound if it turns out you'd need it. It was among a bunch of stuff someone was getting rid of. Visually it looks fine, no dents, cracks or deep scrapes, I don't know anything about it beyond that.

What do you currently have holding the duct in? Or is it just sitting in there for a mock up shot?

After redoing/remounting my duct 3 times. I found out the only think that worked for me is to fiberglass in the mounting studs to the duct

nice talking to you too rich ps I left msg for you on you phone about a gasket and bearings, if yea can get back to me that would be great kinda on time crunch yet again




now on to the progress, I got my head back from the shop were I got the crack fix turned out it cracked all the way into the port and over time my valve seat would have failed to fail in it's place which would be pretty bad


as you can see it has bean done properly by ball penning to get rid of pock holes\debre ect

Looking good bro! Question, can you send any turbo to pte for refreshing or does it have to be their brand? $300 isn't to bad at all for servicing

Well I pulled my diff because my oil broke down to fast it's band new and hardly no mileage

Suspect was to much heat reason to tight of gear mesh

I got this diff done for me like 3 year's ago and they did a shitty job the mesh was from heel to toe of the ring gear and zero back lash

and they hammer in the side carrier shims and looks to me like they did not use a case spreader

well i was going to fix it my self but i don't have shim's so fuck it i called them back and bitched at them about what i saw and they agreed to fix it as they should why should I have to fix something I paid for and the funny part is i told them gonna check there work it did not phase them so i though ti was all good.......



well i was happy tell I got the diff back


gear mesh was good thank god perload was good too

cons-
only 3 blots were tight on the back cover last ones were hand tight if that
use shit load of silicone about close to 1/2 sweez though
diff itself was cover in metale like some one was grinding near it when it was open :furious:

so i called them open told them what i saw and that was that




any way this is the turn out i got aka my pattern it's pretty good so that is a plus


p1716175_1.jpg

p1716175_2.jpg
