very nice, love the colour coding on the engine, very neat sprinter, looks the goods, only thing slightly don't like is the wing from the rear it looks good but the side profile pic it looks odd. Anyway, seems like you have had a long buil up to an awesome car, just get out on the road and enjoy it.

I think a 1GGTE would be well suited to a F series rear end.. I reckon the 1G might scare the T series, especially after the single turbo upgrade.

Joel is on the mark. I'm aiming long term for 200rwkw from the engine and a T series won't be up to the task esp. with an LSD.
And I have 2 F series diffs at home.
The 6 speed isn't a hugh priority except that this is the planned driveline for the Celica I'm building and I'll probably swap it to the Celica at a later date (the gearbox that is)
The tow bar is to add Teh powah to teh engine
and the cup holders are for my buddy of Coke.
I don't mind the wing too much, this the first car I have owned that has a rear wing.

Yeah I intend to, the condition of the car in general is a testament to Wei's passion for the car. this is one of the reasons I got this car against the few others I was looking at.
It is Sooooo Clean Besides stereo there is nothing I wish to do to the interior. (except maybe relocate the boost gauges to where a lanky prick like me can see them properly)

Cool1.... I have no idea... Wei the previous owner found them ex importer but could only get 2 x 14's and 2 x 15's. He was searching for another pair of 15 but to no avail. I'll keep looking for them.

No, not to the drags yet. the engine has some issues ATM that need to be rectified before that happens. Engine puts out about 120rwkw or so which is pretty low.

Yep She's a pretty picture.
I need some options on what to do with the turbos however as I really don't like driving it too much at the moment.
I don't know weather to swap the turbos for another 2nd hand set and hope I get a good pair, Have this set rebuilt and possibly hi-flowed or look at a single turbo setup a little earlier than I had planned. The engine surges under boost an I really can't put my finger on why.

Might be good idea to get a dyno run with the A/F ratio being monitored to make sure it's not leaning out under boost.
I think go the single turbo

There is always that cost factor involved with going single turbo and after the initial recent purchace the missus isn't real keen on letting me go shopping with credit card just yet. In the short term I have about $1500 to get things sorted.
I did have the opportunity however to find myself on a nice long stretch of uphill road on which I got the chance to let the engine wind up under boost... Shortly after reaching full boost in 5th gear the engine dies, and the type of dies that says to me there is a distinct lack of fuel to the engine. looks like a walbro intank pump will be high on the shopping list.
Joel... Rod had time to drop it on the dyno when I was there the other day but I already had a fair idea there were fueling issues. I'd like single turbo but it'll have to wait I think.
Josh... yeah engine management may well get a go either Haltec or autronic at this stage. I'd be interested to see how close I can get to 200rwkw with engine management, Hiflowed CT12's, FMIC.
I'll look into The single KE30 as I'm fairy open to ideas at the moment but would really like to get the diff and brakes up to spec before the engine.
