    It's not RSP. it's 350Z blue. Oh and nice car. Didn't the last owner just get this couple months back?

    yea that's him. He used to spam soo much in the other cars section to get his post count up so he could sell it. I think his name was my98twinturbo6speed or something like that.

    [QUOTE=Supra109;5142909]I had the NA-T on my first Supra and I owned my engine running only like 8 psi, that was the end of that.

    So you blew the engine running 8psi? I have a '95 NA-T that I turbo'd 2 years ago with the Turbonetics kit (which I guess is no longer available). I haven't had any problems with mine, and I drive it pretty aggressively. I want to eventually upgrade the fuel system (after putting in thicker head gasket) so I can run more boost.
    I'm curious what setup you had, and what caused the failure on yours.

    I don't really know, one day after pushing it hard and I think the boost spiked and it owned my engine and I started to get rod knock.

    lol, yep I talked to him about this and it is him indeed. He's a really nice guy though don't be fooled by internet forums... Also, I'm pretty sure the car never had nitrous installed, that guy owned a couple of Supras so it could have been another one.

    By the way it's the 350Z Daytona Blue color

    The only thing I'm disappointed with is the right headlight was "restored" and became foggy very quickly. Now it's ugly as hell. Ima buy a brand new one next month or so!


    Thanks for all the comments guys! See you at the meet!!!

    UPDATE:

    Wow. What can I say, other than NEVER EVER deal with this fool who sold it to me. His name is Brandon and from De Pere, Wisconsin. (Yes, the guy who was spamming the forums all over the place). I'm not going to post his personal info, I'm not that low.

    This crook actually removed the headlights and let me have his old 93-96 headlights that are all fogged and he tells me to %$*! off ... What an loser

    You guys were right about him all along. The good news is that everything else is cool with the car. It's just gonna cost me another $750 to get a new pair I guess...

    Anyway ...... Internet = ALERTED!

    Brandon is a good guy. Headlights? who cares? you got like a 25,000.00 car for 20k. I wouldnt complain if I were you.

    98 in that condition with all those mods....i mean COME ON.


    Also brandon has moved on too I guess...he bought a 98 RSP twin turbo 6 speed(really low miles I heard) pretty sick. I think this is his video of it!

    Yes I know he has a RSP Supra, I also got his ass banned. I guess that makes us even. The greatest thing is that eBay will pay for them, so I couldn't care less.

    Can't wait to have money to put more power into it though! Where would you guys start? Are cams worth it if I'm gonna swap the engine later? Can I keep em? I already have a decent air intake (could be better) and 3" pipe.

    I would do NOTHING to that car..it looks amazing the way it is... I would leave it until i had enough money to make it a 6spd TT. if your not a HP freak then the swap will be MOREEEE then plenty for you... if you have never driven a TT before i suggest you find one and test drive it lol youll never go NA again.
