Default new turbo'd rsx-s owner here...edited w/pics

just wanted to introduce myself to everybody. i'm from northern va and own a 2002 type-s ssm w/a cybernation turbo kit. it's running beautiful and i'm looking to sell it soon as I am planning on a baby soon.



aha, here are some pics for you guys..



woah..dirty..




the bra is there because my mom decided to crush my hood..cheaper then a new hood for now .




yes it's kinked....and yes-it was a test fit...i shall retake the picture for you guys as soon as the 3" exhaust comes in and i get underneath to install it.

What a filthy engine bay! LOL! It's all good, I'm the same way. I don't care much how she looks as long as she gets the job done, know what I'm saying?

That CN kit still treating you right? (I lurk on crsx a LOT!)

hehe. i'm loving the cn kit, however i'm looking to upgrade to kpro as soon as I have some time and can figure out where to rent time on a local dyno.

install took me about 20 hours in my garage on jack stands (new to this platform- had some reading to do).

will be at the track soon w/my friend who owns a newly sc'd 350z.

i'm in kingstowne but all over the place for business and family stuff.

kik, if you're asking how much i'm looking to get it's 18.5k obo..car has 37k on it. 2300 w/turbo.

if you were to buy the turbo setup i have separately from cn it would cost about 4k shipped. then you have to upgrade the clutch, 60--900 bucks w/labor and get it installed (600-1k).

Your asking 2300 for turbo setup?... labor is free to install. If you cant install turbo you should'nt have it is what i believe. Anywho 2300 shipped with everything ?

i salute you for a modest appearance (except the rear spoiler)...and for a braided oil return line. (kinked or not)

what is the hose that runs right down the center of the bay, over the top of the engine? coolant return?

screw teh dirt, drive it and enjoy it.

hehe..i'm guessing it's an a/c line or maybe it is the coolant return line.

damn you guys- i'ma have to take a pic from underneath to show you what the return line looks like about an hour after i took the above pic and reclocked the turbo. hahaa..that was a test fit above..
