    E85

    thanks a lot, I know I probably should have used the search function. But the information you have given me has definitely made me think, if only E85 was readily avaliable in CA the high octane would be nice for once. is water /meth injection corosive because I am planning on putting one of the snow cooler systems on my Z31

    E85

    has anyone converted their Z to E85 if so how did it go and what modifications did you have to make?
  3. I often visit my local junkyard, and I am wondering what vehicles I could get higher cc injectors off of (either for l28 or vg30) besides the 75 benz 450. what other years did those injectors come on. is there any good high flow toyota or DSM injectors, what do you all think?
  4. Ok these parts are for my vg30et that i am rebuilding New timing sprocket Old sprocket (looks a little diffrerent) new oil filter stud (new engine did not have one) Supra mk3 intercooler i got for $23 What do you all think? oh and does the intercooler have a dedicated inlet and outlet or can i switch them? thanks everbody
  5. cool thanks a lot. what cars can i find these on? what engine are you using them on? stock FPR And ECU?
  6. What are the best drop in injectors for a vg30et? For cheap injectors I have heard of Oem 75 450sel Benz injectors 420cc or DSM injectors 550? Are these drop in on my intake anybody used these?
  7. yeah just tested the bov its frozen, it was free anyway
  8. Wow that worked great, here is a pic of my car
  9. Hi this is my first time posting pics tell me how it worked Here is my Mk3 intercooler Here is the Saab 900 BOV (does anyone know what the electrical connection on the top does?) Hope it worked
  10. i have recently acquired a mk3 supra intercooler for my z31. my question is does it matter how you mount it as far as the front or the back? and does it only flow one direction.
  11. hey evildky any computer or fpr modifications? what cc dsm injectors are you using, are they aftermarket or out of a mitsu? nice numbers by the way is that in z31?
  12. thanks for the info, btw the intercooler only flows one way right?
  13. About 2 months ago I created a thread concerning the rod knock my 300zxt was having. at this point i am currently rebuilding my junkyard vg30et and will be pulling old engine from car probably early january. Today while at the junkyard I picked up an intercooler from an 89 turbo supra and a bov from a saab 900. I am also installing a brand new clutch which is long over do, as well as a custom 3 inch exhaust w/a glasspack. After i get my new engine running and smogged i am planning on installing the fmic and bov. so thats where i am at right now. I am planning on running around 12-13 psi with this setup on 91 octane. has anyone used the stock supra intercooler before? how did it work?

  15. Great info, I will be going to junkyard this weekend to pull 84t engine, any tips, I have never pulled a vg30et before also any reccomended tools I will be taking out entire engine
  16. thanks guys all your info has been very helpful, I should freeway cruising no time.
  17. so let me get this straight. Cant I use all 5 speed parts(throw out bearing clutch) on my l24. But I did not mention I am building an L28 for my 240z, SO if I am reading right then I can just Drop in the L28+5 speed using al 280z parts. does it matter which driveshaft I use.
  18. I was wondering what parts i needed to swap a 280z 5 speed into my 72 240z I know many people have done it before thanks for any info
  19. what years did they make the W blocks, and is there any difference between the cylinder heads?
  20. I have located an 84t short block will everything bolt up? I know the turbo on the 84 is not water cooled, just oil cooled.
  21. Thanks for the info, other than the CR will all the acessories bolt for example on an NA vg30 or VG33.
  22. Hurt my 85 turbo z31 engine pretty bad (rod or crank i think) I am not sure how much of the internals are salvageable, so will any vg block drop in with all my acessories, if so best year and does it have to be a turbo block to keep my CR the same, .. THanks
  23. thanks for the info does anyone know what makes the early z31 turbo engines have the lower compression ratio 7.8:1 i believe is it the heads or pistons, and is one year block better than the other?
  24. No i am sure it is a internal mechanical knock, it occurs when I start engine and load it, starts to knock bad above 2k, by the way cruise control unit is removed. oh and about my new short block options I would like to go vg33 what are the best years and If not vg33 then is one vg30 block better than other and I am looking to keep the stock CR (7.8:1)
  25. ok so i have a 85 300zxt with a few bolt ons. I was driving pretty aggressively in the middle of nowhere the other night and after burning a little rubber i heard a really loud knock coming from the engine, it went away after a minute but then when i started driving it got worse(sounds pretty bad) so i parked it. I am not sure how it happened, maybe boost spike or I had boosting for too long (no I/C). anyways I need to do something,I think the machine work would be too much $$$ so I think I am going juts bolt all my accesories to a rebuilt short block. I am considering a vg33 block, will all my acessories bolt up?( alternator, turbo oil feed oil pan etc..) and will my CR be the same. I am also open to any suggestions to my current predicament. thank guys.
