Hey guys, I have started a small project and have been gathering some parts and research for some time now. Finally it has started coming together. The Project is about turbo charging a Nissan GA15.5DE. The block is a 1999yr GA16DE and the head is a OBDI GA15DE and I'm using the 1999yr GA16DE intake manifold with injector rail and TB.
The parts allocated for the build are: EMU: Greddy Emanage blue with 3 BAR MAP sensor, injector harness, ignition harness and USB support cable. Turbo: Garrett T28 (from
skyline). BOV: Turbo Smart Vee Port. Fuel Pump: JECS (RB20DET pump). FPR: Mallory Ignition 4305m. Air filter: K&N cone filter. Turbo Manifold: Custom made (40 schedule steel). Oil lines - Braided stainless steel lines. Intercooler: FC RX7 stock IC. Injectors: 370cc side feed. Radiator: double core copper/brass. Fan: slim line turbo fan (for radiator). Spark Plugs: NGK IX (heat range 6). Muffler: 2.5" in (free flow).
The compression in the combustion chamber was dropped and the exhaust ports were ported for better flow.
The engine is going in to a Nissan Sunny 4WD B14. Pictures will be uploaded in time to come.
UPDATE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The original project build had to be modified because some parts were stolen before the install, such parts as the turbo manifold (version 2.0) and (T28 Turbo charger). Currently the Project is in the fine tuning stage and is not totally complete yet. See the (Current Project Setup) below for photos of the most recent work done.

NEW ADDITION: FRONT BRAKE UPGRADE
The front rotors and calipers were swapped to the Pulsar (AD22VF) setup.
Brakes holds like wow, I would recommend them to any one seeking better stopping power on their Nissan
B13/B14.
