Awsome

RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - Midnightclub - 24-09-2014
Are you sure they're golds? The ones that most get off eBay are GHA's, the golds are substantially more expensive. GHA's are around £100
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - ash23 - 24-09-2014
haha i suppose that your way of asking ?
they will be perfect as long as the adjusters are free!?!?!?!

I wanna do as much as I can but help always comes in handy and yer the guy said they are free and fully working so if there not I'll be sending them back.
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - Midnightclub - 24-09-2014

So cost so far
Turbo £40
Biscuit tin lid (gasket) FREE
Chemical metal loads in shed so FREE
So far I'm no were near £800 for fitting costs but I'm sure there's time yet
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - Piggy - 25-09-2014
Yeah but you had to buy the biscuits in the first place :p
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - ash23 - 25-09-2014
told you a tin lid would be fine haah but in you post i cant see the part were you bit my head off for giving you advice ?

Oh sorry I shall try harder next time
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - 306Dan - 25-09-2014
So really you've saved money by getting her indoors to buy the biscuits that you'd of eaten so you could take the lid?? My god I think I've just confused myself a little there
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - ash23 - 26-09-2014
but really when you think about things
petrol to get the biscuit tin then the tin its self so lets say between £3-8 to get that.
then theres the chemical metal you would have had to buy that at some point? lets say £5 for that inc postage.
how did you cut the biscuit tin? grinder ?well again that cost you money at some point ? cutting disc? ect.
what about the rag you stuffed down the inlet thats more money then the shed you worked in the bench the list goes on and on that turbo isnt looking so cheap is it now..............

Still no idea if there gold or not, bit of surface rust on them but they work ok and adjusters work fine so have to get them on now
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - powerandtorque - 29-09-2014
Look like normal GHA's to me
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - Midnightclub - 29-09-2014
Yeah they're the GHA's
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project gt2052s - Chris_90 - 02-10-2014

Yer she does coal well, depends how I drive it but since it's been on 100% veg hardly smokes with "normal" driving
it has been over 2,000miles since she was last washed to. I'm supprised with the noise level consideing it has 2 silencers in its louder than I expected.(02-10-2014, 03:59 PM)Piggy Wrote: same GAZ shockers I got. Seem pretty dang good to me.

Won't be on for a while the costs are mounting up fast looking at £150 minum for all the exhaust bits before I start with oil lines, manifold, actuator etc
It'll get there one day just depends on money
