Looks like the turbo closely retains its stock position.

Now I am a poor ole single batchelor I am making it my mission to get her back on the road. Errr 3000gt gentlemen!!! get it right!! It has 13g turbos on it rather than 9bs which the gto has. 320bhp as standard rather than 280 from the import. I am upping the boost and hopefully it will be running 400bhp by February.

Anyway back to the silvia. Needs a steering rack, better manifold, radiator and hopefully I will have everything else. I want an aluminium rad so anyone who can offer advise shout up.

Or if you want to see her on the road again come give us a hand as my work is painfully slow due to 2 prolapsed discs. Ah well

gto ,gt, still not a silvia, you would be best selling it and getting something with some power paul, 400bhp from a 3ltr and 1670kg or more, it will be nippy, but not anything to get you exited, put the 16 valve head on yours, a bit of tuning and you could be up to 350bhp in a car thats at least 500kg lighter.
