My Turbo Conversion

[JET-086]

[goergie]

louie i am impressed...!! and very happy... its about time my friend..!!

Jono...

[JET-086]

haha thanks Jono, whats the latest at CV Performance any new big guns? i might be coming there for a tune once i get this thing running

[JET-086]

Running Gear

Block: Standard high comp bottom end, will put de-compression plate once this head gasket blows
Head: might put a mild cam in
Box: Standard Jatco 4spd with a tranny cooler, i'll be goin straight to Al's race glides once it blows
Tailshaft: Standard 2 piece
Diff: 3.8:9 gears and lsd

Bolt-ons

Turbo: Standard T03 Turbo with standard manifold
Plenium: Standard turbo plenium (getting it painted gold)
Intercooler: AVO Stage 2 (piping in engine bay is going to be painted gold too)
Computer: LINK With a handset (plugs in the standard harness and fits in the standard box)
Injectors: 440cc Porsche injectors (Cleaned and Flowed)
Fuel Pump: VL Turbo
Fuel Regulator: Malpassi
Turbo Timer: Bogaard

As you can see i've welded fittings on the side of the sump and on the turbo for oil return, i'll be recieving oil from the oil pressure switch with a T-Piece. i will be tapping a fitting in the radiator hose flange to recieve water for the turbo (just behind the water pump), and i'll plumb it back into one of the water lines around the block somewhere.

[88tbo]

Looks nice as.

All that gold in the bay reminds me of PLATNM (Bresciani car). Might want a better fuel pump tho. No point buying a VLT pump as when you turn up the boost it'll probably need to be replaced.

[JET-086]

Thanx, haha yea i get that alot, i already have the vl turbo pump i got it with the turbo conversion kit, but ill leave it up to the mechanic when he tunes it, if i need a bigger one ill change it, but i doubt it because i will be running standard boost so i think it'll pump enough.

[kakimoto]

what has Bresciani done to the car the rocker cover is very well done

[JET-086]

my mate owns LTSFLI built by bresciani, we went to vic to drop thr car off for the dyno day, he gave me a sticker and a shirt. yeah the rocker cover turned out nice its painted in 2pac PPG with clear ontop.

[Sexy Berlina]

To3z are pretty cheap to buy brand new arent they, im concidering about getting 1 for my calais but these new qld laws, haha fuck em i have no liscence anyway so what do i have to loose haha, might just need to do some internal work 1st, or atleast break everything inside so that way i have an excuse to get a loan and do it lol, mrs is strick on me getting loans lol

standard turbo will be enough for me. i was even considering of putting the cross over pipe too, but i came across the AVO and it was a deal too good to miss...

[JET-086]

[dss58u]

who is doing the conversion,Bresciani
nice paint job

[JET-086]

thanx, nah all at home in the garage. as for the sticker read post #8 lol

[Sexy Berlina]

hey man i brought a motor yesterday and i was looking at it today, theres oil feed line bungs on the bock already for the turbo, i looked it up in the manual.

[dss58u]

you must know your way around tools to take on a job that big
are you sponsered by bellevue
what times you expecting

[JET-086]

man to tell you the truth, its not that hard if you set your mind to it and kno a lil about mechanics its pretty basic. im close mates with they guys that own bellevue and they've respayed parts of my car. im not building the thing for power im just building a nice cruiser, if i was chasing numbers i wouldnt bother putting a standard turbo on it. im only tuning it on 7psi si im guessing it'll run a high 14...

[JET-086]

yeah, lucky you. u dont have to go through the headaches im goin through lol

[Sexy Berlina]

its not a turbo motor though, its an 87 motor but u should have the holes near ur engine mount on the exhaust side, what year model is ur motor or calais?

[JET-086]

it doesnt have the fittings on the block. mine is one of the early series 1 calais. in 86 holden/nissan brought out 2 different rb30 blocks one with the fittings and one with blank spots like mine. when the series 2 came out, they discontinued making blocks like mine and just put plugs in the holes.

[JET-086]

this is my series 1 block...

http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/wog40t/100_4914-1.jpg

this is a series 2 block...

http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/wog40t/S4.jpg

Blue = Water in.
Pink = Oil in
Yellow = Oil return
Green = Water drain plug, leave in place.

[CeloV]

If your not going to use the fuel pump would you sell it??..
would that do for my vl calais..??
I like the colour on ur car..nice.

[JET-086]

thanx man. nah im gonna put it in my car sorry dude.
