hahaha awwwh $hit TURBO TIME!!!!!

lemme kno how it goes got a lotta turbo 300zxs here in the yard the kit i could get for like 200 bucks just dont wanna spend the time if it wont work.... engine swap seems too hard for me at the time.

 

nice man, how many miles ur motor got??????


hopes its not 250,000 like myne



ps, my bumper is the only thing that is better than yours (YAY)

 

212325 miles. Motor has gone through a fail tranny, 2 bad chts, a busted timing belt, bad engine mounts, and still kicks butt.

My bumper use to look decent. Then it got kissed by a ford expedition. The guy driving it was a moron, weaving in out of traffic on surface streets. When I had to stop, he didn't react fast enough.

I want the license plate frame. I hope you did not scratch the paint. The car is nice, what is on the car is beautiful. The car + whats ontop of it installed=masterpeice.

 

thats going to be a lot of work, but you know what ur doing. i trust your boosted is going to be tight



considering my dumb a** has had my amp and sub hooked up wrong sence i got it, but its good now, just gotta turn it around in the trunk, stupid 4 ohm type r and even stupider xplode amp

 

must gonna repaint....i woudlnt have ever thought you'd had set large metalice heavy things right on your paint if you had more than just a turbo in mind

 

congrats man Its about time!!!



did you ever get an intercooler for it?

 

oh yeah paint is fine. I was very careful in setting this stuff down.

S

 

Get a really big one, their sexy.

 

Not yet.

So what is all that again.....

 

Q, check out the 2nd gen forums. I finally got pics of the RSB endlinks (dude I'm so sorry for taking so long).

That is a good chunk of the turbo kit. I don't know if you guys noticed, but the IM is the honed out version.

S

 

I know what it is man, just pulling your string for a minute there. Glad you finally got it bro. Cant wait to see how it performs.

 

Sucks about your bumper, now you need to come up here and have it painted .

 

Sweet Sarin!!! When you get a chance check out the pics in the Northeastern section of the meet this weekend. The first guy that post pics has pics of a turbo second gen that showed up....it looks really good IMO. When you check it out let me know what kinda set up he has...his manifold neck is pointing towards the passenger side fender?

 

Looks like he might be intercooled? Looks like he reversed the IM. All I can say is that is a pretty nice 2nd gen. Never seen chameleon paint on our cars before either.

S

 

sweet man! loving that.

 

Are you just going to bolt the turbo system on? Or, are you doing a engine build-up?
I would look at www.zcar.com for tips and tricks.

I also found this:
http://www.lumiere.net/pipermail/max...ly/012056.html

It has a little info on the subject, but is interesting anyway.

 

For now, just bolt on. I'm not looking for a huge amount of boost....about 8psi. I've worked on a S/C 4th gen that's running 12-13 psi, 10.1cr, and stock internals...I'm pretty sure I can make a 9.1cr motor run on 8psi pretty easily. It's all in the tuning. Either way thanks for the links, I'll definately look through them.

i have a question about the bolt on... i see in the pictire that you have the intake plentium, the exaust manifold, injectors, turbo, MAF, and some cables is that all one would need to do a turbo setup? do i really need the intake plentium off of a 300zx? i see you dont have the ECU in the pic i guesing that you would need that also? and what do you mean by tuning is it really extensive? just asking a few questions before i go to the yard and tear apart a one of those motors and strip it for what its got a complete engine swap would be too extreneous for me. also would changing the heads help with breathing with the turbo setup?

 

You don't need a 300zx plenum. The thing is mine is an engloid style plenum. You look inside, there aren't any runners. I do have a Z31 N/A ECU. I'm still debating if I want to use it or not since I can tune the car either way.

S

 

interesting thanks for the info, u gonna run a big fmic or a small one likr the z32's use?

 

I'm not sure what I'm going to do about intercooling yet. I don't wanna slap this huge FMIC, but I know I want to intercool.

S

 

get a hood scoop and put a small one under there sr20det style?

 

thought about that too....not sure yet.

S

 

go the front mount just not to big so you cant see it and paint it black sleeeeeper

 

Yeah, I thought about that. Space is the problem up front however. But I'll figure something out.

S

 

man i could of got a turbo today at the yard for 50.00 bucks theyre having a 50% off sale 16.00 dollar headers. man im so pissed i could go tomorrrow.....dang i wish i had some funds..
