  1. DAW, have you looked into how much of an over bore the LD motor will take?

     

    Ive mildly been hunting for a LD block to play with, the last one I saw was left at the junkyard after I pulled the crank. I remember reading the posts about turing the LD motor to gas, but it was after that block was LONG gone. Oh well, sure another one will show up someday.....

  2. I hadnt been thinking of building a motor like that, but I had thought about the rod to stroke ratio thing. My idea would be to run the 144 L24 rods on a L28 crank. The Z31 turbo pistons use the same size wrist pin but with a 10-12mm higher wrist pin (I think I dont have an extra L28 turbo piston to compair) The bore on the Z31t is 88mm, which would give you both a better rod to stroke ratio and a little displacement.

     

    Ill get my Z31 piston out later and measure it. HTH

  3. That one is from an SR20 (nx2000, sentra SER) The TPS will work, Im running one on my car right now. the onlything that may be odd about that throttle body is the shaft size. You would have to dremel out the stock linkage to the propper size to make it fit over the shaft.

  4. Im going to be doing the 5-lug thing soon as well. I am running a 280z. I will be using the 300zx front rotor with a spacer (1.4" from what I measured) I will be using the toyota 4runner 4 piston calipers.

     

    On the rear, it looks like my only option is going to be the rear hubs, and brackets from modern motorsport. They use the 300zx rear rotor and a 240sx caliper. I think this is the easiest way to make the rear 5 lug. Plus they have a kit with all the hardware and ebrake cable stuff.

     

    After much research, this is what is best for me right now. Hopefully others will chime in with thier thoughts.

  5. Austin, Have you had your car dyno tuned, or has it just been you messing around with the SDS (oh man I hope you actually have SDS, I cant remember for sure) Ive found with mine, having been screwing around with the SDS myself, its driveable, but not as good as I know it can be. I havent had any warm up problems or driveability problems with the SDS.

     

    Its funny that you compare driveability to a 325i. We have one here and I cant stand the power delivery on it. I find it hard to drive in normal traffic as it makes no torque. it revs out nicely but thats only fun when no one is around.

     

    I guess my vote would be to get your car dyno tuned. If it already has been.... then I guess you should do an RB swap :)

    You will have to have your rear hubs drilled. Unless you are thinking that that Jtayler has hubs with the same width all the way around' date=' in that case I don't know but I would like too.[/quote']

     

    Yeah, I have seen the modern motorsports redrilled rears, I was just curious if there was another way :cheers:
