you can get one out of small deisel motors but still.... you gotta get them setup to work on a gasoling motor. some old fuso's use like 20G turbos which are a good enough size

Stolen? I thought you can buy them online or something, I mean I want my car to be really strong than my 1968 Ford. Drag wheels... I meant something like deep dish rims all about same size, and tire a little big in the back, smaller in front. I am new to these japan cars, I am just thinking of american cars, so I thinking adding a big rig **** in this car, I dunno I might be wrong on this.

Alright, I know what you mean, I did steer the wrong way with my 1968 ford once, it was bad. I don't wanna do to this car.

your turning into a ricer noob really fast bro. slow down alright... just breather, think, search, listen to advise. you can use a diesel turbo, but not a big rig one. the largest turbo i've ever seen on one of these cars was a GT42 and being your $$$ you have to spend you can spend a grand in making the car beautiful like i did then use the other grand for a turbo build but it wont take you very far. now if i was right this is what i would do. AEM EMS system coil on plug setup forged rods and pistons 8.5:1 CR obviously light weight flywheel racing clutch probably ACT findaza mix together, large race radiator AZ large oil pan Z32 tranny R200 CLSD rear end built though and ARP bolts all around, rebuilt head using over sized valves large cam and strong valve springs so i dont get valve float, a GT40 turbo custom intake manifold large custom IC setup custom turbo header with a 3.5inch turbo back exhaust and methenol injection for the race tune other wise just a daily boost setting of 18lbs race setting of what ever it would make, entire arizona Z car suspension setup custom dash to hold all new guages and the important ones only a Xenon front end, fender mirrorsm wantanabe or similare rims 16X10.5 rear 16X8.5 front and ZG flares with CF front and rear bumpers. but yeah thats like... 20G's right there, thats if i went L motor, id really rather try my hands on an RB26 or SR motor. lol..... for you id recomend just doing a subframe overhaul like i did i got a sorta write-up for it if you want, get the car painted and a decent set of rims like the 16X8 sportmaxx 002's you can get that are a GREAT rim and for only 400 shipped to your door. dont bother with a bodykit right now just get the body painted and brought back to sparkle then get new carpet kit and maybe a dash cover if the one in it now is cracked then reapholster the seats. then try to find a turbo motor for cheap get a T3/T4 hybrid turbo a FMIC setup and megasquirt and then get a nice tune use larger injectors obviously and larger fuel pump. thats a little over 1k right there for a motor tuneable to maybe 300whp maybe more idk... btw these arent drag cars they are track cars.
