tow it with a valiant, not a magna...

No doubt more reliable too mick

Silvia turbos are far too small . T3/t4 is ideal, .5 front and either a .62 .82 rear

When I did mine I cut approx 50 mm out of the strut tube. Minw is bloody low though, especially with the 16's...

Im running camira inserts jason, use the camira gland nuts, just the strut tube needs shortening. Let me know if you need more info

wow that gb hardtop is beautiful... who owns it and will you sell it?

hmm yeah but alot of money for little power upgrade, so it would be 150rwkw? id be going higher compression and bigger t/b, injectors etc aswell...

What's it going in?

be better off putting a blower or turbo setup on it mate

looks like it needs to go to the tip, start with a better shell..

bloody hell, that needs a full resto, not just a paint job!

i tried putting a auto speedo cable into my hardtop, didnt work for long. Lancer one was the same so i chucked the spare in i had

Def need the galant sender. They only run 1/4 on the gauge hot

Are you using the galant saturn temp sender in the astron manifold? Using a astron sender will more than likely give you a incorrect gauge reading. Also ive found in the past that running no thermostat in a astron actually makes em cook ,try puttimg a thermostat in and see how it goes, possibly even...

jason, you sure you haven't got a binding up uni? what does the diff turn like out of the car by hand?

it will need a scavenging pump, oil to a turbocharger needs to be under pressure from the oil pump.

you wont get 2.8 with 60 thou over size.. the crank journals will end up too small

Had a friend who owned a Galant back in the 70's, the story goes he blew 2 pistons and it kept running for 2 weeks until he saved enough money to buy a new motor (again a 1.6) Mine has been thrashed by me for close to 5 years with only servicing needing. Its down on compression in all cylinders and...

The worn saturn and strong dont belong in a sentence

when you are talking to your grinder, make sure your hair dosent get stuck in it, or you done face plant into it.

nice! lancer booster/master by the looks of it?

I think it was similar to the first one but didn't have the O2 sensor. This is exactly what it looked like, the manifold that is, unfortunately it wasn't a twin cam, lol http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee271/Galant_GTO/e.jpg Those 4 holes in the manifold had long bolts go through the manifold an...

Good workmanship Dave. Nice to see other people doing things properly to older cars, makes them look that bit better in the end.

Probably let it cure for a week or two! looking very good mate, nice no see some big progress. I love the jap rear lights

A112H wrote:Some did astronturbo77, I had a LA Coupe that had a cat connected directly to the manifold. I was a weird manifold that looked sort of like a turbo manifold and had 4 bolt go right through it and held the cat on.

wouldnt have been the stock exhaust/engine though.

you would hope there would be a gasket in there, unless you like massy ferguson's? what sort of car? no early mistubishi's had catalytic convertors..

the twin carb factory manifolds are for astron 1 only.

cool story needs more kingswood's and shit! maybe a morris marina with a starfire engine

inch bore size, looks identical to a short wheel base patrol one that hoonboy had on his car!

found this... looks very similar to the stock one!
