First things first. To lower compression you need to put in a thicker metal head gasket. Most turbo manufacturers will carry a selection of different head gaskets of various engines Hope this has been helpful. Alex

When it comes to Big HP turbo is always the best way to go and if done right its reliable as well, an N/A tuned engine will not match a turbo car and reliability is always a factor. I would have to agree with Stephen. An RB swap would be good for both power and reliability if done properly. All in all BIG HP means big money and lets not forget alot of time and patience. Work out what your budget is and then tach on an extra 2G's to be on the safe side. Thats my 2 cents, hope its been helpful. Alex

Hi Mull Here's my 2 cents. Add on pieces are fine. When you get into making hoods and doors and other important parts you must consider strength. I have alot of experience in Making fiberglass and carbon parts for Aircraft. I don't think a hood that weighs 1.5kg is going to be strong, what about the fenders and doors? A Carbon Fiber part is strong enough when built properly and weak if its built badly. Please don't sacrifice safety just to save a few extra pounds! Thats just my 2 cents

Hi Guys L28 engine I was wondering how much it would cost to have the crank, flywheel, pistons, etc balanced? A rough estimate. How much would it help the revving of the engine? Any help would be appreciated Thanks, Alex

When I bought my 75 280z it didn't have a lighter and since I'm a non smoker I never bothered replacing it. ALex.G, 87 Mazda RX-7 87 Toyota AE86 75 280Z Custom Convertable
