FRESH TURBO HATCH
So this is the deal, i have a 92 hatch lambo yellow w/ 3 stage pearl paint, 15in Spun wheels 85% tread, full DCsports exhaust, glass JDM headlights with 10000k hids, amber corners, JDM tails, carbon fiber fuel door, civic type r front lip, JDM Spoon mirrors, JDM fogs, Koni yellows w/ Skunk2 coilovers, front and rear strut tower bars, full interior, pw/pl, s2000 leather wrapped shit knob, ex cluster.
Engine:
OBDI JDM GSR motor w/ limited slip tranny
Comp. Stage 4 6 puck sprung clutch w/ about 1000miles on it(give or take)
Skunk2 Pro series intake manifold
XSPower Turbo kit w/ 200-300miles(turbo size t3/t4 50/63 trim)
Hondata s300(Brian Fisher tuned)
Python 550cc injectors
Golden Eagle Pro series fuel rail
Walboro 225lph fuel pump
GSR front knucks(something like a big brake upgrade)
The Problem:
Compression test showed to 215,210,90,210 w/ a drop on the 3rd cylinder. No knock, no check engine, still runs, but wouldnt drive it like that, damage just happened. No smoke from tailpipe other than typical turbo exhaust. My guess is ring landing, most likely didnt scar the wall. Pretty sure new turbo pistons would get her back to normal(something that needs to be done anyway) Minor scratch on hood, but carbon fiber hood would solve that easily.
Tired of throwing money at it and school, time to grow up a "little." Dont want to do this but sometimes you gotta let it go. Asking for $5000/obo. Will tow close to NOVA. Hoping to get that much for her, but will take reasonable offers or trades plus cash. NO LOW BALLERZ, SERIOUS OFFERS ONLY. PM or post, let me know what you got. Pics going up shortly.
