My 88 notch turbo build

Great work! Your car seems to have been in about the condition mine is in currently when you started working on it. Its nice to see someone else who did all the work, and makes me want to get to work on mine... but first I need my own garage lol.

Thanks guys! It has been a long build but very fun. I have over 500 pics of this build, most just pictures to make sure the crap went back together like it did before. I suck at electrical work. No time to get it all in order. It took me 4 hours to get all of these pics together. Just a brief pic log of what went into it.
Car is done, just waiting for my tuner to install the FAST XFI system then the vids will be plentyful. Can't wait. I have some vids from when it just had nitrous that I will post later tonight. More pics too. About 60 I think. Really had to narrow it down a bunch. I have pics on so many discs running around my room, it's nuts.

The underside was stripped down, primer paint out of a can, so was the black paint, then used a wheel paint from I think Dupli- color then cleared it. All from a can. Losts of prep but that is all I had to use at the time I started this then I got sort of serious and sprayed the engine bay like you should do. Way better. Vids coming tonight as well, next post, then thats it till I get it tuned and more vids.

I am proud of it but sometimes I get tired of looking at it. Was a lot of work but glad I did it. Can't believe I did that.

I have not run it with the turbo. Still waiting on a good safe tune. I did get to play with it at 10lbs and it got freaky quickly. Third gear rolling smoke show!!!!!!

Sushi rules. Nothing like a dead fish in your mouth. Say that reminds me of a story when I was in Okinawa. See, there was this gi....
