so none im guessin?
bump

 

You looking for a kit, or a LSJ that was changed over to turbo (a complete car)?

Why not just turbo your LSJ?

 

im lookin for a complete car, a lsj swapped to turbo. i dnt have a balty anymore im lookin to get another one

 

Oh gotcha. Buy a good priced LSJ and make a project car, it is so much fun... Also you dont have to worry about possibly fixing someone elses issues.

 

I'd sell my car for the right price but your a little far.

 

ya i definitely agree with you in not having to track down someone elses mistake. but i dnt have the time to do a turbo swap id rather buy one that is done right, jus have to make sure it is. i aready have a money pit, my 68 nova i jus dropped a big block in it, i dnt have the time to take on a second project. and i cant afford a lnf but id like a turbo instead of the lsj i used to have

whats the right price?

 

11k

 

ha buy an lsj with 50000 miles on it for 10,000 and then spend the 2000 or watever it is and make it turbo... i rarely see a turbo swapped lsj for sale

 

ill keep you posted. when i get some money together im about to post my 5.0 notch for sale today.

ya i kno it seems like they dnt come around too often. i remember about 2 months ago there was like 3 for sale, ss-erious, spike and some other dude had one for sale

 

i'll sell you mine. it will need some work. but it would be a good project. i'll sell it for 9k

 

what are the details on it? and what does it need to be complete?

 

turbo setup is fine, just needs engine work. im the 3rd owner of the turbo setup, 2nd owner of the car its on.

FP3076, billet compressor and turbine wheels, oil and water cooled.
HKS bov
turbosmart wastegate
GMP intake manifold
Custom turbo manifold
Vibrant intercooler
Powdercoated piping(engine bay only)
60lb injectors
Methanol 5gph i believe

reason it needs work. engine has 112k miles on it and smokes after highway driving. compression test showed all cylinders were 30-40psi below average for local lsj's. it made 346whp on the dyno on 20/21psi. also confirming a hurt engine as INFE made almost 80whp more with the same turbo setup and boost, also with 80lb injectors. and both the bryans on this site said not to push it any more. i've been talking with zzp and they have a 60k mile engine for 1200 we were going to swap in and retune. and i have a breather setup in the works that would be overkill for this engine(good to about 800hp) so with a new engine swapped in, plus 80s, you'd see mid to high 400s. i even have some extra parts i'd though in for 9k. including 555r's mounted on 16s

non-engine mods;
wingless trunk
blacked out 3rd brake light
vinyl over key hole
5% tint on all windows +banner on front windshield
ksport coilovers
tc upper and lower grill
black/chrome front bowtie
black painted stock wheels with chrome outer lip(could use a repaint)
Potenza RE11 tires
antenna removed but i can put it back on
black painted lights, passenger reflector fell off though..

 

car also went 12.4@115 on the radials, 2.2 60'. the tune that was on there for that pass did 307whp on the dyno









MOST RECENT EXTERIOR SHOT

 

yeah im the one that did the testing on exsoccers car, is ******* clean and is well worth the 9k.

 

thanks james.


only body "damage" is a dent one the pass and driver door. a mark on the trunk from a softball. and 2 clips broke on the drivers side skirt. it really isn't that bad as chevycobaltss03. i just never bothered getting them fixed cause i wasn't concerned with having a 100%clean show car rather than power.

 

whats not as bad, i have no issues on my car just the trunk lid, but yeah his car is sweet, him and i would trade as well when the time is right if he dont sell it.

 

thats a pretty sweet looking engine. love these turbo lsjs, gotta save my pennies to swap mine out. how much do you think you have dollar wise put into a swap?

 

i bought the car already turbo'd. but the intake mani is about 1500 i'd guess cause its a GM part. and the turbo is 1,700 new... sooooo. hahaha. but i've also spent about 3k in putting a new transmission in it. new tune. had the manifold rewelded. and misc things

ya im not really lookin to take on another project i more want a reliable turbo balt. i kno thats a lot to ask for wen you throw on a turbo... but its possible lol. but i can understand the rings goin with that setup. that wud be a fun car in its prime it has alot of nice parts. whats on it from the "legendary" rpf1

 

lol just his old ksports

 

haha ya i thought u were gonna say somethin like that. well then ya ill consider ur car i dnt have cash together right now but in the near future. i saw a crashed lnf in my area that sed he wud sell me the complete motor, tranny, harness for 1500. it has like 35k i wonder how hard it wud be to do that swap and then id have direct injection but idk if the header and intake bolt pattern is the same as the lsj to use the same manifolds. and im sure the lnf wud be able to handle the boost

 

Here are some pics of my car pretty much as it sits right now. I've been daily driving it like this for the past 8 months through the snow and everything. I have a clutchmasters stage 4 clutch in my living room waiting to go in as well as OTT's return style fuel system with the walbro pump.
