I used a kit to bring up oil pressure,volume, since i wanted 2 rev higher, changed out the stock water pump for a more performance oriented one, and new timing chains and dampers and tensioner, ported and planned the heads and put new oil vained rods. Bought up the compression to 11.15:1, new gaskets and head bolts and headers, engine oild cooler and bigger radiator with slimmer fans. Sounds costlly , yeah but actually it wasnt. Also i wanted to fabricate a mounting plate to put the 300ZX dual throttle intake manifold but , the clearance wasnt waut i wanted, so i custom bent and fabricated , my own high volume upper manny with 2 throttle bodies, one for frunt 3 cylinders and 1 for the rear 3 cylinders.using the stock TPS ish no prob and few mods for the IACV is needed , the onlee thing was now i had 2 intake throttle bodies and onlee 1 MAFM(mass air flow meter. well since i was going to modiffy the programming of my computer, i basically got the computer to interpuret the reading frum the air meter as doubled, to acknowledge the right air intake.Besides that tho i reused alt and comp brackets frum my VQ30 engine and such accesories like that i basically used frum my old engine. Oo pics are soon 2 be displayed. The big test was can the tranny handle it? Well i had beffed it up with stuff i got or had lying around frum a wrecked 02 SE(engine frunt cover ect smashed) It did for the Dyno which turned a 287.45 HP @ 7100RPM the wheels(All Import Dyno Testers) and 278 lbs TQ. Hmm we figured a better of 300 hp if just @ engine, i was kinda upset i guessed 4 more HP, but ill just go bak and tinkle wif my ECU programming, but 4 sum reason my 3rd gear seems to hab stripped out. It NO LONGER WERKS!!, Wuts this, well i am using a slightlly beefed up 3.0 SE tranny. Wut should i do?????
