A GT40?...

Get used to no traction, that thing is going to rip hard.

I think people who complain about traction need to be introduced to real tires.

A GT40?...

Get used to no traction, that thing is going to rip hard.

I have a GT3082R(aka3040), it has a GT40R compressor wheel, .70A/R T04S compressor housing (4" inlet, 2.5" disch) with a GT30R turbine wheel (.63A/R 5 bolt style housing). According to ATP, its supposed to spool faster then the GT35R and provide the same HP level as a 35R. We shall see, my goal is to upgrade to a GT4088R which has the same foot print as a GT35R or GT3082R in the future ;)

Will anyone be interested in my turbo in a month or two? it has 700 miles on it and two dyno pulls @18psi.

My newest upgrade, I know, nothing new to some of you. I decided to add S60R calipers to the rear with stock rotors.

I bought the rotors/calipers for $150.00 of a wrecked 2005 S60R with 5000 miles in a junkyard back east :D

I brought the calipers to work and used our glass bead blaster to remove the stock finish.

I will have the calipers powder coated in a glossy black finish and once 034 is done with the brackets, I'll post up pics of the final product.

I also cleaned up the rotors/hat and will paint the hat in a glossy black finish with high temp engine enamel paint(1200*F). Once they dry, I'll post pics of that too.

This is what they looked like;

And a few pics of the M56H of a 1998 S70 T5.

A little hystory on the flywheel and why it's taking me so long to do my manual swap.

On December, I dropped off my stock 96 flywheel to 034 and I'm still waiting on it.

034 sent the flywheel out to X company, not too mention names or point fingers. They had it for 3 months, took all the measurements and nada, then we got it back, sent it to the next company and they did nothing, backed out after having the flywheel for 2 months, again, we get it back and now we shipped it to the last company and so far they are responding positively. I hate waiting..

Pics of the tranny below, as I order the LSD/clutch/flywheel, I'll post up. Plus I will include detailed pics of the full swap and will be posted on this thread to help others.

The tranny will get a fresh scrub/paint.

Ordered new tapered roller bearings for the LSD and I will press them at work today.

Manuf- SKF or Timken

Part# 32008X or 32008XM

Cost $34ea from Applied Industrial Technologies in San Jose, CA. Took one day to order them.

You can order these from any bearing shop.

This weekend I'll put the tranny back together, the clutch should be here by Friday.

I got an amazing deal on a SPEC stage 3+ part #SO133F.

Will post as I make progress.
