Swap courtsey of Tilley

Well maybe just one ....
BTW- this is a full swap, not just the manifold. Props to Tilley

 

Car is running good? Any quarks?

 

Nice, I am following behind but you beat me to it DE-K may not be enough for my boost hungry azzz, Got the DE-K for the I-30T in my garage, and now the SCer that I had for sale ,

Congrats man

Jaime

 

Very nice man. This is what I was shooting for but then Jaime convinced me for the VQ35 :-)

Cant wait to see what a DE-K with a SC can do on a 4th gen though.

 

DEK?? You mean VQ35+SC in a 4th gen, right?

If so, whoooah~!

 

Well for my car I am trying to stay VQ35. For Jaime's we might go Hybrid VQ35 with a 5th gen SC and 2.87 Pulley :-D He loves boost more than anyone else in GA.

 

VQ35+SC+4th gen =

 

Right now priority is to get this All motor VQ35 4th gen up and running

 

looks good Nick. still got the Nitrous on there?

 

Nitrous is still in there, just need to get another jet for a 65 shot and it should be ready to go.

 

still spraying it with the dry shot?

 

Dry 4 life

 

Nice job, do you have a RPM switch for it already?

Also im curious what FSTB are you using that it clears the DEK manifold ?
I got rid of my CM FSTB cause it wouldnt clear the DEK manifold on my car.

 

Yeah, I already had a Summit for my MEVI (which is for sale). It's set a 5200....but maybe I need to adjust it.
The FSTB is some no-name off Ebay.

 

Yeah ive set the DEK at 4600 on my car but Im gonna try some different points on a dyno to see what's best.

 

I got a new clutch on the way. maybe we can see what the DE-K with a dry setup will do versus my 180k miles VQ30 w/ a wet setup.

 

Sure thing buddy
I'll even let you run a 75 shot

 

you don't want none.

 

well how much faster does it feel after the swap...I know it might not be a good comparison as your previous engine had 180K miles on it as you previously stated...

 

Car is running good? Any quarks?

 

if you activate the VIAS sooner than 5K RPM it will tend to bog, I found this out on my full bolt on DE-K. I tried some tricks with diff RPM switch on Emanage VTEC output :P I found that factory onset at 5200RPM is perfect.

 

Man, you have to talk to me about the sudden sale of boosted equipment.

 

Mike- It's running great, except it has a hard start issue, and after I went back to Tilley to tweak it it now doesn't really stay running unless I rev it for 10 seconds or so. It cranks and revs, but if I don't rev it it just dies again. Tilley and I are both confused about this.
Otherwise, it feels great. Even though I hadn't driven my fully functioning VQ/MEVI/JWT in a while, I can certainly feel more low and top end. Top end feels great, and torque is back too. I'm loving it.

Jason- Bring it

 

oh I will. i'm ordering a clutch first thing this week and that'll go in ASAP along with a stock flywheel.

 

That's sweet ... Dyno time ... What ECU are you using?

 

95maxrider-You might have a bad throttle position sensor. Usually when that part goes bad, the computer cuts the fuel because it thinks the throttle is wide open. Good luck finding the prob.

 

Dyno coming soon, but I need to iron out some small issues first. I'm using a JWT ECU.

 

I posted while in Iraq the black 98 was going up for sale with all mods. Starting life all over again. Knowing too much about cars kills everything. I wanted an IS but now I dont even desire the freaking car. Going with a truck and a Hondu for gas and staying Nissan for now til I make up my freaking mind!!

 

did you program the ecu to run the DEK motor? or is it from the old motor ?

 

What? It uses the same tune from the original engine.

 

That's the same problem I'm having w/ mine on cold starts. May mess w/ it later... I'm just happy to have it running finally.
You using 4th or 5th gen IACV?

 

I think Tilley fabbed up his own IACV...not positive though....
