Fuel pump looks like a pretty good deal, since it comes with all the extras:


Doubt the extra capacity oil pan would fit.

 

Why are they switching to a timing belt?

 

Good question~! Don't know.

Less noise? Less friction?

If I ever pull of the timing cover, I'm going to see if I can't swap to a 3rd gen VQ35 silent chain.

 

Maybe to tune cams? I am sure it is a lot easier than a chain.

That is not a bad price either. Are the 350z pulleys different than the maxima vq35 pullies?

 

Yea id like to know about the timing belt. Cause it definetely is a sprocket based system with the chain, cant just take the chain off and use a belt. Shiet.... there is baerly enough room for a belt not to mention that whole case sits in a pool of oil.

Something is wrong on that ad.

Dixit

 

isn't that the replacement pan for PE's TT setup?.... a little pricey but would be sweeter than tapping your own upper pan (if it fit)..

 

I rather save 500 dollars. Unless I was going to autocross all the time.

 

Yep. I think oil cooler(s) would be cheaper/more effective cooling wise, but with the extra QUART or so of capacity, that would be interesting. I just doubt the pickup would be compatible/optimally located on a transverse mounted engine.

I'd also have to monitor before/after turbo install oil temps to know whether it's necessary or not, ESPECIALLY since I'd only choose water cooled CHRA turbos.

 

What do you mean silent chain? The VQ30 has a roller chain if that is what you're referrring to...

 

It has a better/quiter chain that hits the sprockets at less of an angle or something, so it's quiter the the VQ30s had.

I'll post more details tomorrow.

That is the link on information about it. Plus ran into some new stuff nismo is making.

Look at the NISMO VTC Pulley!

 

Its a pretty good deal. Gruppe-S is very rep. We have dealt with Max there numerous times.

Adam @ Z1 is also a great guy to deal with. Goes out of the wayt to help.
