Figured i would post this in here also for you motor heads


Well after weeks of waiting on parts and waiting on the shop the motor should be in the car tommorow. The motor is all put together except for the fuel rail and intake manifold. It looks like the DE-K fuel rail will work except we are going to cutt the mounting tabs off and re-weld them in the necessary positions. Everything went together smoothly which is not a normal thing for me

The setup is as follows:
3.5L SC'd w/ 2.87 pulley
26x6x3 bar and plate intercooler w/ 3" pipes
cooling mist methanol injection
CAI mod
Nismo 3.5L R-tune cams
ARP rod bolts
DEK fuel rail (return style)
PF thorttle body w/ stephenmax mounting adapter
Hotshot headers
ATP 3" cuttout
Power Enterprise 510cc injectors
Emanage Blue w/ injector and ignition harness
Zeitronix Wideband O2

Everybody please keep their fingers crossed that we can get this thing to fire up tommorow

 

sweet...keep us updated...oh..and pics

 

*crossed fingers*

that will be one hell of a monster.

 

Cool....


Why don't you just make the 2k2 fuel rail into a return style? (like I did)

 

Well it is just more straight forward. That way we can keep the fuel setup exactly like it was which leaves less bugs to work out.

 

Since you already have an aftermarket FPR, you would just T off before the Fuel rail and Y to each of the fuel rails.

You make the hard things simple and the simple things hard.

BTW are you coming to BWW tomorrow, I would like those cams KTHX.

 

I know how everyone else did it, i just wanted to try something different. It is simple for me since Loc offered to do it

 

poor poor auto tranny

 

Betsy is up to the job.

 

Hahaha Betsy.. You'll trade good ol' Betsy for her cousin, Heidi (manual) soon enough!

 

keep us updated. how much did the nismo cams run you?

 

got them for $700 shipped brand new off of my350z

 

sorry to pull your legs here chris, but you do need to show up to BWW to return some stuff. Spig's been too nice to help me out, don't make him and me have to go to your house and drop some asian raids...

 

Oh, by the way, I have just received news about Nissan building up an assembly plant down here in Livingston Parish. Heard the plant is 2 miles long. Internships to engineering students are offered at 18 bucks per hour. I wish I didn't sign up with Baker Hughes' New Orleans position so I can go for Nissan's internship.

 

Calm down asian i have both you and spigs $hit. I will drop it off tommorow night after class.

Try and get that internship bro so you can hook me up

 

No deal dude, I cannot back out from Baker Hughes since I've signed the papers; but I definitely will try to hook up an internship next summer with Nissan. Love to see those new VQ's being put into a car. If I get in Nissan later, I'll defly hook you up, Chris.

 

Damn Asians...



so Chris whats the update?

I might be follwing your footsteps soon with the 3.5L bottom and 3.0 heads, and going turbo route... But i will wait and see what your beast will do

 

wait so you are running the 3.0 heads chris max?

 

Chris is running VQ35 heads. However he is using the VQ30 timing chain setup and oil pans. This allows him to use the VQ30 ecu and sensors, he only has to sacrifice the VTC and he will have to start with the VQ30 tune which he has to custom tune anyway.

Running VQ30 heads on a VQ35 would raise compression, which is a bad idea for turbo. VQ35 heads are also supposed to flow better.

 

Good luck........

 

we demand a update chris ~! = P

 

This idea seriously still gives me a raging semi! Really excited to see the end results!

-LIEB-

 

in to see some dynos and pics....and dont blow up this time.

 

haha where is this 3.5 sc, i wanna see some love.

 

blown already? lol j/k
updates please

 

Intercooler is being installed as we speak, after that i just have to do some nick nack $hit like trying to figure out how in the hell i am going to fit the w/a injection in the engine bay

 

Dude, Chris, that zhit has been in the shop for waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long. I told you already. Loc is going to "loc" you up. Well, this is point of no return. Best wishes. I think when you car gets done, I'll be in New Orleans doing an internship drill'n for oil. Also, I'm buying your charge pipe setup. Payment will be ready on June 20th. Sorry for the latenesslinessliness. So stop sell'n that thang on the org. I'm dibb'n it.

And yes, "Cams" will most likely go back in that engine at the end of the summer. If not, this winter.
