Building Turbo Max Se

Ok, guys I am gonna need some help on this one. I am working on the internals of my VE getting it ready for some BOOST. I am looking to get these parts prior to the teardown and rebuild. I will probably be getting most of this in mass order from courtesy nissan. But if you guys know where to get it cheaper or even a affordable performance part for it I would appreciate it.

87mm Dished Pistons
Injectors - I have heard I can get better performance through a 300zx injector?
Knock sensor and the harness from the TSB.
Head Gasket Set (Upper set)
Lower Gasket Set
Water Pump
Piston Rings
Main Bearings
Rod Bearings
VTC Rebuild Kit x2

Thanks Guys
Steve

Can you PM, Email or AIM me more info and pricing on the Poly Urethane Bushings?

As for the internal engine parts, where have you found the Dished pistons? I ask because I've never seen any after market VE specific pistons before, and if you use them from a VG, they will fit, however you will have to use VG connecting rods, but since they will fit, thats very good news for you.

Re: Building Turbo Max Se

Besides the dished piston your your "internal boost prep" appears to be for a OEM rebuild instead of a rebuild geared to boost. But new rings and bearings are always a plus regardless if it's for OEM or boost. Are you planning the rebuild yourself or are you getting the parts for someone else to build.

You won't be able to go shopping for pistons and rings in the least until you get the motor torn down and machined and then measured up.

twin turbo 300zx pistons and injectors, contact john@z1motorsports.com
everything else get from the dealer with the lowest price..but like was mentioned above, you cant order rings/bearings until the motor is apart and measured.
