Garrett GT2871R turbo with GT28R style Compressor Housing W/ ACTUATOR : atpturbo.com is the one epstein uses on his s14. Snagged it from the s14 vs s15 turbo post. Should be good for the HP you're looking for. he knows where to get on in FL cheaper than that too. Id get with him about it

So my buddy scrapped what was left of his shell today. He doesnt come online, but his car was incredible in person. It was cleaner than the day it rolled off the assembley line, and he worked his ass off as a teen to make sure no corners were cut.
It wasnt everyone's style on here, but it was a awesome car, sucks to see it go. (Old lady ran a red and totaled it a year ago)
Just wanted to share.

Unless you were the first guy who said he was sending payment in that thread, thats pretty gay, I pm'd him the other day and said I wanted it if the first buyer backed out.
Arent you still planning on selling your car due to some haunting of crashing s13's ?

Oh I pmed the first time, that day that I told you about it. And he told me he thinks the guy is backing out, then he told me he did. That's when I told him Id paypal him in the morning.

The brake pad doesn't need to come all the way down. Braking force is pad area, coefficient of friction, and the mid-pad distance from center (and pressure and some other less important stuff). In fact, if you added 50% more pad area to fill in the inner part, you would get a lot less than 50% brake force back. That's why pads are rectangular the way they are and not rotated 90*. The problem with this setup is that you've got a bunch of heavy, friction area in the middle that you're not using, and could be replaced by a lighter, larger hat. For the drop in the bucket that this kit is, it's easily overlooked.
You just need something out back now to balance out the now-huge front bias.
Z32 setups are not invincible by any means. Where's Patrick L and his tales of easily overheating a Z32 setup with a fairly mild S13SR at Sebring?

Ah, well if you end up selling off the pieces again instead of going through with it, please let me know first, that thing is my first choice for how i'd like to put together my brothers setup, with us just building a tubular SS one being 2nd, and a meganorwhatever T25 style bottom mount being third.
