I was at the gas station and this random maori fella comes up to me starts yarning to me about my turbo. He says my sister's boyfriends sister is into gemini's I'm like yeah ok. She crashed it now she wants to sell it she also has a piazza he says you wana buy it I say maybe. So we exchange numbers she text me and say you want it I say I'm broke at the moment how much she says $80! Ok now I'm interested $80 awsome I ask her a few questions like does it go ect and what engine G200z or 4ZC1-T and shes like no its red and it says IZUZU DOCH!!! on it and it goes mint I'm of to look at it tomorrow.
If I get it I'm going to be quite happy ;D

The sohcs and the twincams have different manifolds. You'll have to make up new inlet and exhaust for it. Then, I guess you wana use carbed rather than buying an ecu? If you carb it you'll need to suss a new dizzy thats non electronic or what ever. I'm quite sure you know all this already, but am I nearly convincing you out of keeping it? haha $500...  |

500 big ones  No I will be using an aftermarket ecu  and yes have to make a new manifold for the Skidline turbo I just bought anyway so still no problems yet but if I change my mind I know where to come. ;D |

Haha d**n. Sweet as dude, good luck with it. I recomend getting it running on the ecu in the piazza first them dumping it in the gem. And just remember when you make you turbo manifold don't do it with the engine in the piazza as the mounting point changes.

"Yes my car is/has that" You'll still be able to make heaps off it anyway. If its in good nice you could just stick it on TM. Get afew hundy probably. |

Nah been ass ended infact its the same car I left a note on the window about 4 months ago guy wanted like $300. I flaged that to much for me tight ass ect. He sold it to this chick the Piazza and a Gemini for $700 She sold the Gemini for $1000! so shes still making a profit selling it me for $80.
A young guy started at my work last week he has a TG in his dads shed. He's only 16 he wants a bit of help so I will prolly sell brakes and maybe the diff to him.

Not from what I've read but thats only compaired to other efi options its bound to be better than carbs ofcourse. The other thing I have found is that it has a LSD awsome |

;D hehe, negotiable
