I ran into some problems with my DET I spun a rod bearing after 2 weeks. I will have it running again as soon as I get the new bearings. Also I did away with the TO4b and will now be running a t3/t4 55 trim hopefully it will spool up sooner than the 3.5k from the T04b.

 

Good luck Tilley -

Glad to hear you kept the Max. I do know that while this thing worked.......it was f'ing awesome to ride in.

You still have the 240sx?


Dave in York

 

Yeah I still got the 240sx once my max is back and running the 240sx is getting a turbo.

 

Cool!

So I guess the DET intake isnt for sale

 

awesome, I cant wait to hear all the kill stories when it is finished.

 

thats awesome, even though i've never ridden in or seen your car, you are the reason i built my turbo kit thanks for everything, cant wait to see yours running again!

 

Tilley - king of the low key Turbo

Harold - you open up his engine bay and it makes you want to shake your head a little.

His car definitely left me inspired

 

 

 

 

 

Those pics are the reason this was made

 

 

here are some pics of my new turbo, If anyone is interested in one I can get them cheap. Its a T3 exhaust side with a T04e compressor. The price is 350-400.

 

No worky.

 

What the ****?? What knd of engine is that?? Its in a Maxima... Umm and its says turbo on the valve cover?? Umm, and its inline V4 or V6?? What the freak???

 

inline V4 or V6

 

inline v4 or v6?

 

Well you could tell me and stop making fun. I just say the engine sideways thats all, oh ya and that would probally not fit in maxima, oops.....

 

its a vq30det ... found in the Japan in the Nissan Cima and Nissan Gloria.. its our engine with a turbo.. it produces 280 hp / 285 tq in stock form

oh and here is the pic..

 

umm, isn't that a turbo, I want to know where he got that engine from? And what kind of numbers it pulls out.

 

just posted it above..

its the turbo engine version of our car... puts out 280 hp / 285 tq ... he got it from a member of this forum who deals in Japenese Engines that have been shipped to the US

 

hey Rob.. feel free to register .. http://www.turbomaxima.com

if you want a gallery to upload some pictures let me know.. ither pm or via email..

 

here are the working pics

 

Thats pretty awsome. I wonder how much he spent to get that. 280 isn't that high thats about normal like the turbos at 4 psi. It just looks weird becuase the intake manfold and such. So is that the only sucessful engine swap into a forth gen.

 

he did a couple stuff to make it work..

check the PA Maxima site off my links

http://www.turbomaxima.com/modules.p...iewlink&cid=13

you might find some old threads with info when he was doing the work..

280 is excellent... not many engines put out 280 stock.. and this engine has been out for a while.. to the best of my knowledge the engine was about $1500... this is the only sucessfull "known" swap.. JWT has "claimed" to do it also..

 

Thats 280 with the turbo right? I don't think the engine is pushing out 280 alone is it? If it is, sing my up for one if its only 1500 dollars. I mean if you go but a turbo you can push out the same at 4 psi. I mean that engine has to have way stronger internals than ours though. I wonder if I cna find one online??

 

Online would be the place to find them. Also the internals are much better than the US VQ, they are meant to handle boost, I think that motor has a better top end as well.

 

holy moly dmontz!!! we need to find the ve30det j-spec!!! hehe

 

lol, well I know there is a VE jspec which is supposedly 5 more hp, just like the j spec sr20 is only 5 more hp. We can get that and then just boost with TTZ internals, TTZ internals are the shiznit yo!

 

tilley just out of curiosity how are you handling engine management

 

yes 280 with turbo...
