Question What do you guys think of me doing a KA-T D.I.Y with Pics?

Ok guys, i've got a KA-T ReInstall coming up in a few weeks on my car and i just wanted to know how many people on here would like me to do a D.I.Y. on the turbo install. It's going to be the T25 setup.

I'm going to do a writeup on everylittle thing that you need to know and i'm going to post up pics + what tools are needed and how much time it took to install

Here is a list of what all is going to be installed

SSA T25/T28 manifold
Sr20det T25
300zx MAF Install + Intake install
Custom FMIC
Custom FMIC piping
BOV install
SS oil feed lines
SS oil return lines
SS coolent feed line install
SS coolent Return line install
Oil pan removel + the install of the oil return bung
Boost gauge install
Oil press gauge install
coolent gauge install
Turbo Timer Install
Sr20det 370cc injector install
Downpipe install
Catback install
Wideband o2 install
and a few tips on tuning with the wideband

Well what do you guys think. I just thought this D.I.Y. would help out alot of Noobs + help out a few people who need some help with the KA-T install.

Anyways Let me know what you guys think??????

i have a hunch i am going to get flamed for this, but i am confused, because you said KA-T install, but your list says SR20DET

I must be missing something

the only SR stuff you see is the Injectors and the turbo..

uh..those are interchangeble.

Study your 240sx some more.

just reinforce the welds before you install and you should be fine.

sounds good to me minus the SSA T25/T28 manifold, atleast get a MR or reinforce that one. I can help you out on all the stuff like the IC piping, 300zx maf, oil and coolant lines etc. Hit me up if you need anything. I've covered alot of that with my car

I dont think plugging in a turbo timer harness needs much of an install explanation haha

The SSA manifolds work great.....the only ones that have problems are the SSA ka24de ( 1st and 2nd Gen ) T3/T4 manifolds and the 1st gen SSA T25/T28 manifolds. The 2nd Gen KA24de SSA T25/T28 manifolds work great. And thaks for the offer about helping me out with the z32 maf and coolant lines and stuff, but like i said, this is my 2nd KA-T reinstall....and i have had this kit on my car allready. And as for the turbo timer install, you would be surprised on how many people on this forum alone ask for help on how to install a turbo time.......so i'm just doing my part and helping out noobs b/c i once was a noob and alot of poeple have helped me out.
