Right, either way, needs something to make adjustments, either a SAFC, or a Haltech, something its needed.

 

BBMAF, or the Z32 MAF in my case still needed a lot of fuel to not run dangerously lean with de-k injectors.

 

what i'm trying to say is that with a BBMAF and DE-K injectors you won't need to add a lot of fuel because you are running rich to begin with ,but a tune would be to get the best performance of that combination.


schmellyfart ... a Z32 maf and a BBMAF are for different things ...the z32 maf is to get a bigger voltage reading in a boosted aplication ,and a BBMAF in the other hand is better for N/A to give a more unrestricted flow to the engine because the air is getting sucked by the engine and not pushed like on a boosted engine

 

Yes the two MAFs are commonly used for different things.

Unrestricted flow you say?

A32 on left. Z32 on right.

 

The 3.0 Had enough fuel to run hard w/ the 3" maf on the throttle... But @ idle



And I want injectors big enough to throw stuff off, I'm starting w/ Z injectors though.

They're technically bigger than Z33 injectors. But no one has any idea what they're duty cycle % is @ their rating, I'm sure the Z33 info is online somewhere though.

Tape

I'd like to run DE-K injectors but I don't live in the land of DE-K's where their injectors are boundless and plentiful.... So if something goes wrong....

But I do live in the land of Z33 injectors...

I really wanna do 370cc.... Yeahhhh boiiii!

ME GUSTAAAAA

Z32 ID" Plz? From what I research it's 80mm or exactly the same as the A32? Which was like 72mm right? If it's 80mm or so I may scoop one of those turkeys up.... The less PVC piping the better

Edit: 60mm same as the A32 maf, just missing the extra lego piece in the middle.

I will be goin with the Q40fizzle maf, rumors are it's 80+

Edit 2: Q45 Maf = 83.25MM ID / 90mm OD..... We have a winner!

03-05 Z33 IM (Why? Because there's a ton of em @ work, and getting a motor as cheap as I did, didn't come with a IM... also bling factor)
5/8s spacer
Hacked off elbow replacing it w/ a 3" ID pipe w/ to fit a Q45 TB
Q45 TB
3" ID Intake Piping
Q45 maf
All above = Me drowning my 3.5 in Air

 

thats exactly the same setup i plan on doing around april (i also have a VAFC2)

i already have the IM and 5/8 spacer installed i have a Q45 MAF and 3.5 O.D. intake ready to install and on april i plan on having the Q45 TB with the big elbow welded on the IM,.....


P.S. i have a VQ30 with 6 speed .....we kinda have the same setup you used to have except i'm RWD and my car weigths 2290 lbs after all these intake mods the VQ35 goes in and i'm sure it will be lots of fun

 

Fun fun!!!

Hrmm 2300lbs..... I think I can skinny my 4th gen down there....

 

then you better start pulling everything that doesn't make it fast or safe

 

Fixed.

 

Driver included

Tonight's Nonsense includes a 61k Mile VQ35DE out of a 06 Maxima with damn near the whole wire harness for



That car got SMASHED, it was on the loosing end of something, I've never seen coolant lines destroyed like that, but the oil pan, UIM, and other things check out fine, I guess it was a good hit but nothing ridiculous. After some quick checking, the motor is in good shape, there aren't fluids where there shouldn't be, oil is a good color, NGK Iriduims, etc. the whole 9, car was cared for until it's demise... or at least right before it's demise...

The partial stripping of a 205k+ Mile '99 Maxima SE-L Engine Bay in preparation for a motor+tranny (typical FWD style) removal.



Done for now, tomorrow the VQ30 comes out.

 

Sweet!

 

nice man

 

You're going to swap oil pans so the flywheel sensor lines up? Just curious .....

 

Oh yeah I was gonna call you about that....

3.0 Oil Pan work on the 3.5? I dont see why nottttt

If not I'll have to pull one from @ work ugh -__-

 

yea the 3.0 oil pan will work fine

 

Motor Delete Mod Sucessful.



Found too many shavings in my transmission oil though... Maybe a quick rebuild is in order tomorrow.....

Tomorrow's task list includes (and hopefully limted to)

-Putting the car on 4 wheels again.
-Moving it out of the garage.
-Washing the engine bay out.
-Cleaning up the garage (BIG MESS )

-Setting up shop for VQ dismantling/Rebuilding
-- Take apart the VQ30 and find out what failed
-- Time the VQ35
-- Have a buddy inspect my 6MT

-Shopping for the parts destroyed while removal:
--Rubber Hoses
--Some wires
--Power Steering Reservoir

Good night fellas.



Big question... Without a big *** air compressor.... How does one effectively get a crank bolt off???

 

What he said.....

Yes, it will. I've done it twice. This way all the sensors line up, and use the 3.0 crank pulley as well - or the car won't start! Also, things like remembering to ground all the injectors to the block are important. If I was you, I'd use the stock 3.5 intake manifolds to get the engine started - fewer things to worry about at startup - although you would need a Pathy TB for that.

You're really gonna like the extra torque of the 3.5 with the 6spd....

 

I mounted the engine on a stand with a flex plate bolted to the crank, clamped vice grips on the plate so that the engine couldn't rotate in either direction, (jamming against the motor stand) got a 24" breaker bar from Harbor Freight and their impact sockets, and heaved on the bar until the bolt broke loose. Lefty-loosy. Not sure how that works with a flywheel, but maybe you could find an automatic flex plate somewhere..... it's much thinner..

 

leverage. and here i thought you were an engineer,

 

fkn LOL

 

i like how you volunteer me for these things

 

Well bad news, bent my trigger ring on the flywheel getting the crankshaft bolt off, so I am quitting while I am ahead and just having my mechanic do the rest and I'll just drop the motor in my car.

And yes no IFO next week for me

I should have everything I want completed sometime this month and hopefully have my car on the road before my birthday... WITH The aforementioned intake mods (If things were sucessful this weekend I'd be borrowing my friend's UIM+TB+Intake to get the car running for IFO.

 

damn that sucks

IFO?? Import Face-Off???

 

Yeah, I should have used the flex plate I have and used that to pry off the bolt instead of my one-of-a-kind flywheel, was not thinking too far ahead, my fault.

Oh wellz, cut my losses, both motors goto the shop tomorrow, and I get to clean up the garage and study for finals at least...

I still have a TON of crap to do on the car even w/o a motor and tranny, still plenty of things wrong w/ it to tackle.

Bingo, that's the point of half of the modding on my car, to dominate the IFO AMS class in the midwest region.

 

theoretialcally, this should go in the drunk thread. bu t i'm posting her acause i can,

what's left for the car? you're not poulling much out since both of our main goals are IFO. i want to get together wiht Frank to figire out wat we can do as far as cutting weight that we can still get away with at the race.

 

nice IFO is rescheduled out here in Cali for 1/15/12 and i'm trying to get my 3.5 swap done by than lol I barely found out about IFO while surfing other forums

@mightyMax95 you ask Frank and post back here or pm me I would like to know as well

 

guess i might be running in the AMS class aswell

btw won't happen one of my friends went 11.7 @ 114 mph in his all motor street hatch this past friday LOL he'll be at IFO too

 

Hopefully the tranny isn't too f'ed. But hey atleast they're cheap.

I just got mine back together, so it's time to throw it in the car and have some fun in the snow. lol

I've always just jammed the flywheel with something and used a big *** pipe over a wrench or a breaker bar if your a baller.

Oh nevermind, just saw that you got it loose.

 

doesn't matter, i hope to be there too,

 

I definitely think an all motor VQ could trap more than 114mph with ease.
It's gonna be getting the car off the line that's gonna be hard.

Suspension and some nice slicks are in order.

 

Highly doubt he's in AMS, if so that's the fastest full weight AM hatch in the country, not very far from the fastest street N/A car

Annnyyyywhooooooo



Before pictureeee

 

Finally progress pics. Keep them coming.

 

Just curoius, what do you estimate your 1/4 times to be once your up and running?

 

slower than mine,






EDIT: lol his goals are AT LEAST 280hp and 250tq to the wheels. hopefully that'll put him in the high to mid 12s

 

we should all have a big texas meet once aarons car is up

my motor should be back by then too

 

Faster than any N/A 3.0 for less than half the cost is the goal.

Choo crazy mang

I'd love to have 260/240 out of this motor setup.

Fck yeah

 

That's definitely not the fastest ams car. There was a crx that went very low 11s in ams. I can give you some ideas to lose weight from the car while still being legal if you want. PM me, I'm the lightweight king. lol

Also, keep thinking about the rules. A properly built ams car will be faaaarrr from full weight.

The all motor pro cars are running low 10s, one just got into the 9s. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ie7pb...el_video_title

 

LOL yea i read about him too ....

 

he needs to be pumping out more than 470 to the wheels. something doesn't seem right. somehow i don't think he'd conform to AMS rules.

 

nope ..thats whats amazing ... car has been called out multiple times and inspected multiple times infront of a crowd

this car is indeed all motor and follows ALL AMS rules
