V2 on V1



1) thermostat is mounted inside housing but missing the gasket.
2) Pancake filter & silicone tubing (optional CAI)
3) 3" MAF adapter
4) Oil feed line with T fitting
4) last bend to attach tube to blower head
5) fuel pump
6) NEW oil, boost and etc gaugaes ?
6) long tube and relocation bracket for windshield fluid
7) various bolts & nuts??

anything else?

thx guys, im still learning about s/c kits

 

why do you have two fmu's?

 

Thats one of my kits V1 FTW

1) MAF Adaptor (Get a Metal one, NOT plastic)
2) I dont see the T fitting on the Oil Feed line
3) No Drain Line

Oh yea btw, if you decide to install the headers, DONT Use those cheap exhaust manifold gaskets. They WILL leak on you. Get Nissan ones

 

yes the gaskets will be purchased IFFFFFFF the headers will go on. the drain line is attached to the blower ! and the T fitting i am purchasing from stillen anything else for this puppy to work?

i bought the kit used like that

 

That drain line in the picture isnt the right I.D. You need to use the proper size or your blower will build up too much pressure and will start leaking out the inlet

Put together, he'll have a 18:1 ratio, then he can have 200psi of fuel pressure!!

 

1. gasket
2. Also, the steel insert for Pancake filter if you decide to go that route.
3. Like Matty said, get a metal 3" MAF adapter from Cattman or ebay.
4. ??? You have what you need
5. yup
6. I recommend boost and fuel pressure. If you have the money, a true A/F wideband guage
7. I think you mean coolant overflow. You can fab a bracket, or just wedge it between stuff. Less weight/clutter For the windshield reservoir, you simply twist the neck so everything fits.
8. hard to tell. Just look at the parts list in the Stickies and compare. It's all there.
9. steel fitting 90 degree -4AN to 1/8npt (might be in SC already, you'll have to check and/or take more pics)
10. oil feed line should be -4AN ss
11. some way to secure ss line (at or around oil pan) See parts list if you want to know specifics
12. proper 5/16" barbed fittings on FMU? (can't tell)
13. Is that a 5/16" barbed fuel hose joiner in the pic? If not, you'll need one.
14. 3/8" ID power steering hose
15. Cam Sensor retainer
16. Permatex Ultra Gray sealant
17. What are you going to do about relocating (shifting) the fuse box near the power steering reservoir? You can easily fab something. See parts list in stickies and pics in the SCIFD on VQpower.com

That's it off the top of my head. Hope that helps some.

 

thanks alot man. shouldnt be that bad to get it going.

 

Welcome welcome welcome! Blower looks beautifull!! Mind me asking how much it cost you?

 

thanks man, cant wait till i slap it on and do the 5spd swap. that wont happen till mid fall tho

as for the price, i bought it used: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=521098

 

Wow! you will love it. Specially when that 5speed swap gets done Vrrrooooom Phhsssssss!!

 

Looks to me like you're missing some of the bolts that hold the plate to the timing chain cover. Mainly I don't see the slightly larger alternator bolt. You'll also need a reducing insert in order to get that silicon elbow on to the blower properly.

BTW what headers are those?

 

Exactly!

As a rule of thumb, the outlet ID needs to be at least 4 to 5 times the size of the inlet ID. So you'll need at least a 1/2'' or 5/8'' ID hose. Get the front valve cover hose NEW from Nissan, and trim it to fit.

Also make sure there is ABSOLUTELY no kinks in it what so ever or else the oil WILL leak out the blower outlet and a rebuild will be needed... very important!

 

Actually, with the Matty V1 this is not need... but it would certainly help.

 

thanks for the help. the headers are stone mountain racing. ill prolly ditch em for some dough

 

ill trade you intercooler pipeing for the headers.

 

You should pic up some Cattman Headers with that setup.

 

im not doing an IC setup, sorry

and i would love to have a full cattman exhaust with headers, y pipe and catback but money is way too short. dont think that will happen

other than that, the T fitting just arrived from stillen. $32 for this sucka and the hunt continues

 

Nice! I love how they charged you ~$11 for s/h.

Keep gettin' the odds and ends!

 

seriously they charged me $9 to ship that tiny thing for 50 miles. CA tax too lol !

 

Jeez... at least it came with the 1/8 NTP to -4AN conversion piece...

 

yea. but we were doing an sc install today and looks like there is another bent U piece that attaches to the T fitting !

 

You can get away WITHOUT using the 120 degree fitting. Just loop it a bit more than normal towards the back of the car so the SS doesnt kink up and you dont put pressure on the T fitting.

-matt

 

This was my kit. Wonder why the guy didn't want to keep it. I don't know what you paid for the kit, but that blower and V1 plate is practically brand new. Enjoy it!!!

 

he had problems running the kit. did you buy the blower as well? it looks mint. i was wondering how many miles is on it the other day !

 

Blower has less than 1000 miles...V1 kit was brand new. I am not sure he knew what he was doing. He actually called me up upon initial installation and said that blower was not made for that plate....(LOL) So I put him in contact with TJ_Max and he helped him as much as possible. It wasn't a complete kit I sold him..only the V1 starter kit and blower. So I would check all the other parts he gave you.

 

yea its still not a complete kit. its been through 2 people already but it wont go anywhere else

 

you need the pulley tensioner plate, go get a new tensioner while you are at it...get the 3 inch DIA pulley...

 

V1 Uses the stock tentioner plate thats on the motor already

-matt

 

UPDATE

well 2 months later and ~$600 more, i believe the kit should be ready for bolt on but i am not certain. let me know if there is anything that i am missing and unaware of that i should purchase...
all help is much appreciated !

anything im missing?

 

For starters, your K&N filter looks kinda small. Have you checked the specs to make sure it flows enough??

 

$35 ebay intake comes with metal 3" MAF and the vacuum tubes will be cut off and welded to S/C Pipe tomorrow


i originally purchased the pancake but sold it because I30ds told me about the above filter and mentioned that airflow will not be restricted because the filter area is bigger. i trusted him and bought it instead of spending $20 on couplers. i plan to do 3.5" CAI in the future

i believe i30ds has/had it on his car with no problems.

Cool Mike. I'd still contact K&N and make sure it flows enough. You don't want to be robbed of hp do ya? Tell them you'll be running 10 psi and have 3.0 displacement. They crunch a few numbers and determine if it's good enough based on your engine and psi IIRC.

 

for sure James. so its bolt on happy?

 

What's the part number of that K&N filter? Would it clear the little black fuse box?

 

yes it will clear the fuse box. K&N Ru-2990 as suggested by i30ds

 

I know it looks small, but I got both the pancake filter and that other filter. I measured the pleated element surface area of both and they are equal. So, just like the pancake filter, it is still not ideal, but gets the job done until a cold air intake can be installed.
