DIY turbo
11 Aug 2006 11:18
Hi All
My first post. Finally a KZ/GPZ forum. I've got an '82 GPZ 750 (in amongst my 5 CB750's don't hold it against me). Anyhow in looking for car parts at the auto wrecker I came upon lots of small cars with turbos on them. I always wanted a turbo GPZ so... Anyone know what type/make car turbo might be suitable for a diy turbo? I'm pretty handy with a mig/tig and have full access to a machine shop. Thanks for any help. Great site!!

A T2 off a Renault 5 turbo or a T25 off a Saab would be good, but you would be better off in the long run selling the 82 GPz and buying an 84-85 750 turbo, Kawasaki built the bike so you don't have to.

Thanks Lorcan:
I will never again sell another motorcycle. Too many classics have I sold. I will only add to my collection.
