shouldn't be anything in the IC.

 

You bought a TT Z with a blown motor? I must have missed something...

 

Yeah a guy from SD traded it in. He had mossy performance nissan put the turbo kit in. He blew one motor and went back in for a new motor and a few more mods. He then blew that motor. I guess he had enough. So mossy took it in on trade and sold it as is. The car is a 04 base with 17k on it. Mods are Greddy TT with IC, HKS Boost controller, boost gauge, borla exhaust, 19in three piece O.Z. Wheels, UR pulley set, Greddy rs BOV, JWT clutch/flywheel. I bought it for 17k as is. I bought a long block for 1200.00 fuel return for 300.00 and EM timing harness for 40.00. All the work will be done by myself so Ill save major cash. Ill be into it for about 19k with all those mods. Not bad.

 

I got BOTH my greddy turbos rebuilt for 500 bucks by a very good shop, i was going to by this car but you beat me too it When i was down in san deigo you went down that same morning and left the deposit. Good deal

 

Wow. You got a lucky buy from what it sounds. I wish I could find a deal like that.

 

Steve, sory the damage was worse than you thought . Let me know if you need anything.............a new turbo kit perhaps ???/......Give me a call.

 

Yeah I like to JUMP on stuff like this. You have to act fast or else, Ive learned in the past. Can you shoot me info on the shop you used? Thanks!!

 

Lol yeah I was ready for it though. Ive weighed things out and the only way Im going to keep this a great deal is to stick with what I got. If I change kits it wouldnt make it such a good deal. For the HP goals I have set I think it will be fine. Should be a fun car! Ive already ordered new wheels. Can you see it starting again? lol.

 

Yep...Sure can.....seems ALOT of us have that disease! LOL

I have no doubt that when the Z is done,(the way you seem to do things) it will be nice, very nice.
Keep me posted and let me know if you need anything.

 

are those OZ wheels 18s or 19s? let me know how much u want for them, since you stole the car from me lol

 

They are 19's. The fronts have some rash on em. I can get em fixed for about 100.00 each wheel. Tires are about done. Im going to ask about 2,000 with em fixed or 1800.00 without. Can you PM me that shop name?

 

hes right, metal would have to go thru the TB, and in order for that to happen it would have to be open, and air moving thru it, so that should all be ok.

 

be sure to clean all of the piping and intercooler to remove the oil (not so much shards of metal)
you can run a solvent, like brake clean through the intercooler, in a submirsion tub/tank...for a bout an hour, then blow it out with an air compressor, then let it dry...all the piping, wash it out with brake cleaner...that way, you'll start with clean plumbing

 

good luck with that. sounds like a decent deal for the car in that condition so long as u do the work yourself.

 

Well just pulled the plugs. Seems they used stock plugs and not one step colder.
