We literlary threw this motor back together with a bunch of used parts that we had laying around the shop. hell the oil pump was assembled from good parts from 3 bad/old oil pumps lolol. I did not want to put any money into it because I am going to be putting a 3.7L in it as soon as Ross finished the pistons. I was hoping to maybe get 2 or 3 passes out of it, but I got 6 and the motor is still running fine!

pass #5
Missed 3rd bad (this tranny was a 5spd that had bin sitting in my storage unit for like the past 5 yrs, we took it out of a guys 93 it was his original 5spd, it had a crack in the housing and was leaking looked like something hit it, and was hard to get into 3rd, he bought a new tranny from Kormex and we put it in, and I bought this tranny from him with plans of fixing it, and never did till now. We fixed the crack with JB weld, put a welded center dif in it, and put in it my car. It does not even have a front LSD. The car really has got to be muscled into 3rd)

3rd gear, 5spd.
Quick Mod list
DR stage 3 heads
DR little bitty street cams
Cam gears
DBB DR-1000 turbos
ARC-2
720's
Twin pump
Really Old FMIC with a 2.75" thick tube & fin core (got to get something bigger in there)
ATR down pipe
Turbo Bob ECU
RPS carbon/carbon
suporting mods
everything that’s on this car cam be ordered off my web page, that even goes for the OEM short block.... (well ok I will not sell oil pumps assembled from 3 broken or bard pumps lolol)
PS for those that love to pick on piggy backs, and say cars cant be tuned with them and with out a wide band. Not only does this car have a piggy back, but the car or motor has NEVER had a wide band on it. Not even it the other car when I dynoed it, thy were missing something from there Wide band for the dyno so thy could not run it.
Like I always say, "those who say it cant be done, are usually interrupted by those that are doing it"
Congrats to 3000GT/VR4 comminuty!!
