Done... Data to come. Pretty clean install. I bunged the y-pipe before the flex section.

Strange thing is, I'm running OK AFR wise. Anywhere between 12.4 - 13.6 WOT.

There is definitely room for improvement though.

 

Raxles..STS..SS clutch line.. and soon to be 00vi and N-AFC.


Too damn lazy to do any of it honestly.

+1 on being too lazy to install

 

oh jesus just get off your asses and do it.

 

well, I installed my braided stainless steel clutch line. No real big difference. I can feel a slight difference when the clutch engages, but it's nothing major. I don't think this mod was worth the bruised knuckles.
I almost forgot, I've got a rim and tire I need to take in and have re-installed/balanced. I damaged the rim last fall and haven't gotten it re-mounted to the tire yet.

 

Not worth it? hrmmm i thought it was worth it... just think about it when you bleed the line

 

should have gotten the maxima to Z32 SS brake lines and supporting hardware.

 

ES motor mounts, the rest of the ES shifter bushings, and Cattman Fastcat

 

Not on....yet
Read this thread for details. Don't make assumptions, just read it..mmk? http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....AF#post3844522

 

I'm sure it will be worth it when I bleed the line. I've got over 200,000 kilometers on my maxima now and when I installed your line, that was the first time I have changed the clutch fluid. The reality was that with MY OEM line, nothing was wrong with it. If it had been leaking then yes, the line you sold me would have been totally worth it. If I had been auto and switching to 5 speed, it also would have been totally worth it.
I thought that I would have an increased feel of engagement in the pedal when switching to your line, but sadly that is just not the case. There is a moderate increase in the feel of the clutch engaging, but no where near what I expected. I guess I just didn't research it enough to fully understand what it was going to do for me.
The line is top notch and the fittings are excellent quality. I was VERY impressed with the actual line itself, but the benefits (at this point) just don't seem worth the work I put in to install this item.
+1 for a quality product.

 

For me

Vq30de motor, Turbo,internals

 

sounds interesting. can we get more info?

 

Why not here?

 

The internals i bought from someone here, (i think) The guy doing the swap on my car bought them for me. (Fi-R)


The pistons 9:1 C/R FTW!


Some motor shots

Apr studs

 

TeH intercooler, Its going to welded,the couplers are there just to hold it in place.


Turbo being mounted


another angel

 

the steelies i ordered



Im looking to make about 550whp/wtq. I plan on upgrading the fuel pump injectors and turbo soon, these are just for now

Your info would be helpful

 

Some pics of the car when i got it outta the paint shop.Since then the car has been getting the motor put in it.





The tail are there to hustle

 

I sold the exhuast, and when the car gets back im going to paint it Candy apple red with a Pearl Black top, and take off the tails

 

As for all the work being done, he goes by the name of trav4011 on alot fo forums. He owns his own buisness Located outta Louisiana, its been around for about 5 years. He specializes in Nissans. He also has a kit to swap the Vq35 in the sentra, i was going to do that at the time...but he said this would stand more power....and then i decided to build it. Ill keep you all updated on this.

I would like to know more on my new motor, The mods out for it, (pulley etc..) So help me out?

 

Nice sentra.

I like the progress being made.
What are the specs on the turbo?
What size is the intercooler? it looks kinda small, but might not be

motor is a good and strong one. Under drive pulleys can help free up a little power, but it really isnt too noticable.

stock headers arent really restrictive, the restrictions were found in the y pipe (connects to the headers and lead to the cat) but I'm sure you'll be running all custom exhaust so no problems there.

Is that motor is from a 99 Maxima, it might be subject to swirl valve (restricting and for emissions) and coil packs might go bad on you.

 

now that I think about it. a built up 3.0 would be a monster, but imagine a built up 3.5. that extra half a liter would do wonders.

 

Awww, those are cute, did they come on a keychain?

 

Here is the custom crank trigger/flywheel setup that I will be using on Scotti's engine.. This setup allows me to use the 6spd flywheel and clutch, without any changes, on a VQ30 engine.. plus, allows me to retain the older style VQ30 ECU.. which can be programmed by JWT for our turbo application.




Gotta love CNC and WaterJet.. Just have to bead blast and coat it with some clear, and it'll be good to go.


I also got a reflash, 8k rpm
Pistons were 9:1
Our VQ30DE ECU is at JWT currently, with Clark working his magic on that end. 550cc injectors and a Z32 MAF will top things off, along with a Walbro 255lph pump/return line to feed the fire.


ill update it as i get the updates/ look around for the ones before.

 

60-1/T350 T3/T04E (GT 4 bolt housing/T04S comp)
(i forgot the specs on it) Ill ask and post.
I thought the intercooler was going to be bigger as well...but we shall see.
What pullies are made for the vq30?As well as Tb? Tb spacers? Mani spacer? anything?

 

Scottyboi, was Travis able to use those rods? Here's the thread he made:

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=513475

He's building a couple of my friend's cars (one VQ30DE-T and the snowmobile if you know what that is).

 

motor storm UDP, unorthodox UDP.

for throttle body, you could get and adapter plate and use the pathfinder 70mm.

Aaron is working on a spacer kit for the 3.0 motor, that would aide with heat soak, I'm sure this would be benefitial since you'll be running boost and want the least amount of heat as possible.

for the manifold the stock US manifold is okay, but the manifold from a 2000-2001 Maxima functions better. Its variable and you can set with an rpm switch when you want the manifold to close to gain better top end power.

 

LA02,

i dont talk to travis everyday, Ill IM him like a few times a week just to see if theres updates. I have talkto him for a couple of days so ill call him 2maro to see whats going to happen with the rods.

 

Always on point.

-wheels and tires

Picking up my new engine in 10 days or so... then a few things will be coming out of it and a few other things will be going in instead...

 

Well I've Been Waiting Almost 6months To Get My Halos Installed Ontop Of My Oem Headlamps, But All The Guys I Know Are To Scared To Do It It Because They Think It Might Not Seal Upright. Another Guy Tryed To Charge Me $600 For Them, I Didnt Pay That Much For Them. Does Anyone From New Jersey Know Abou Baking The Headlamps And All That. I Got The Info I Just Want Someone Who Knows How To Do It To Do It For Me!

no r tard he's doing the QR25 swap.

 

I wouldn't tard anyone that quick. Dandy has always been known as a 3.0 'buff'. Even with all the swaps surrounding him, he stuck with the 3.0L and even stated when the engine blew, he would go back to it...

Now will he is the question.
