This is my project car that I have been working on for 1 year and put some work into to get it where I wanted it. After the turbo was put on it only brought to light some underlying issues. I was looking into building and going forged but with funds running out, I could use the cash rather than hold onto it unfortunately.
The turbo:
Rev9 turbonetics style turbo
Bosch 550cc injectors
Walbro 255
1 step colder plugs
UpReb base tune by RZG motorsports on 6 psi
AEM Oil 0-150 psi gauge
AEM Wideband
AEM Boost gauge
A/C system still intact and works
The motor:
140,XXX miles Has oil leak in the rear of the motor, unsure where its coming from still holds 70-80 psi on start up and 15-20 psi at idle
- Oil leak seemed to be coming from rear upper oil pan seal. Replaced front and rear upper oil pan seals and RTV'd the oil pan back in place
Valve cover gaskets replaced with Maxima valve covers 100 miles ago
Rear main seal replaced 8k miles ago
Smokes under boost, I suspect its internal somewhere (rings?) (Oil restrictor was a bit too big, installed smaller restrictor. 0.035" and smokes a lot less.)
- Oil return line needed to be relocated above the oil level. Oil wasn't flowing back as it should have causing oil blow by. Blocked off oil pan spacer and tapped upper oil pan above oil level for oil return.
- Oil Catch Can will be installed to further reduce amount of oil in the intake.
Motor isn't knocking, and runs fine, other than the two listed issues above that should have been resolved will post update once a test run is complete.
Transmission:
Stock clutch replaced 8k miles ago
Shifts smooth
No grinding or chatter
Trans oil replaced 8k miles ago
Suspension:
All stock
OEM 19" Rays will be included, sitting on 20" chrome wheels for the winter.
Exterior:
Some dings here and there
Paint chip near front driver side headlight (got backed into in work parking lot and no info was left...)
35% Window tint all the way around
Dual N1 mufflers with a Borla Pro XS muffler
Interior:
Double din Apple car play compatible radio
Bose sound system
Small tear on corner of driver side seat
Motorized seats work fine
Seat heater works fine
Dash has cracks
Price:
$7500
I hope I captured everything I could about the car, if there are any other questions or anything else I should add let me know
