I did the loop too. was thinking about running a sold metal pipe down the sie of the motor even. if anything my car runs cooler. I got pictures too. I'll load them up when i find where i put them
-
I'd still upgrade the turbo
-
I found a L28 turbo but saddly the head was already yanked however the vlave cover that says TURBO on it was their. the intoake manifold and exhaust with turbo.
also found a 300zx (first gen) turbo complete car.
I was wounding if anyone was interested in anything. I can pull the part and ship it.
not sure what prices are on everything but they only wanted about $15 on the valve cover. it's just a solvent tank and powder coating away from being very nice

you know you can make your own DIS system for around $45 plus coils and wires
-
I was going to do this swap. i got a tone of lionks on stuff you need i'll get them to you when i got time
-
you got a cage. can you get any stiffer?
I guess you can use some bracing like a diamond from each tower to the front and back of the engien bay.
than subframe connectors
-
yeah i think this would be useful on ALL SBCs
-
thanks guys. this might happen after all
-
Not to diss' date=' but why would you want the turbo to stick out the hood? If you did that I'd get a nice coffe can to use as a muffler!
Anybody want some RICE.[/quote']
Right...
well anyways it's the same consept as taking air though the headlight.
It's good for some forced air into the turbo and 10-15hp under the right conditions

wow my webers are running rich and after reading on how to tune them. it seems like such a pain in the butt. i know know why i love fuel injection
-
I'd put a spacer on the turbo and have it stick up out of the hood a litle. but that's jsut me. maybe I'll do it if i got with an rb

looks tempting. I still need a sbc first

I'm very interested in a alumium v8 block.
I've looked around and LS1/2s are looking to be about 6-7k...
I was also interested in the the 4.6 Northstar.
and i found a cheap torn down 1uz.
So it all comes down to price vs power. I'm jsut tryign to find a cheaper v8 without going cast iron.

The pics aren't showing right now, but I'm pretty sure it is a RB26DETT. And the guy says he took the motor out of a GTR.
oh the car's based on a Nissan Skyline R33 GTR. my bad
-
all that work with a race car and he's not using a 26?
not dissing the 25 i may put one in my Z but this guy's going all lot with a 25
-
lets keep it on topic
-
can't you just tune the carbs?
-
what if you port and polish the head. will that take off this evil linner?

I used an aluminum flywheel on my L28 back in the 80's.... cost me a pretty penny back then, but if you ignored gas mileage, it was a lot of fun and made a great combo with the Centerforce clutch, peppy engine, and 411 gears I had. I pulled the tranny after something like 30,000 miles and everything was in pretty good shape, considering. I really beat on that car, but you couldnt tell by looking. The only thing that I remember being an issue was I had to relearn my shifts with that combo, between the stiff clutch, and the revs falling almost as fast as a motorcycle does, it just about made you into a speed shifter.
that's when youl earn to get on the gas a little before letting out the clutch
-
nice work.
-
What I see in those pictures is a possible source for the illusive long input shaft. Z-monster, can you measure the diameter of the axles that have been cut? If they are the same as the z31 turbo axle which are still available, the inner CV can be swapped onto the z31 shaft for a VLSD axle assembly. All of the VLSD R200's from Q45's and M30's could now be used!
-
This the one Austin? Only dowloaded view that I have of the car. Anyone interested in it can go to www.zparts.com and look this is their copyrighted picture.
what happend to that 9sec project?
-

I don't know what year it was. but the ECU was still their. it was the first thing i looked for after seeing the turbo. also it did have a blower for the injectors so it's not one of the first few turbo years.
