rdsk8ter

the rim has a 0 offset

trying to find but i cant went to the tire shop the guy was stumped then went to another tire shop same thing. Will 225 55 15s fit under the factory 280zx with a wide body kit? the rims im going to run are a 15x9.5 watanabe

ill have to try that thanks alot

yea i just found that out too ive been up reading all night lol dont tell the wife but it looks like i would have to go with twin t4s for that to work im thinking i would be better off putting a larger deisel turbo on there it sounds stupid but im also thinking (could be lack of sleep) that i would like the turbo to spool around 2000-2500 rpm. i realize this will give me a shorter boost but it would also let me get off the line without crazy spinning does anyone have any good sights for putting deisel turbos on gas engines? or are there any good books you all would reccomend?

i ordered the book today thanks alot guys from what im seeing im thinking of a single t4 turbo 60 trim but i will do some more research

ok now im really confused because i was told for best results i need to build my engine around the turbo, diffo ratio etc etc. the compression will be 9-1 or lower like mabey 8-1 area the cam i have no friggin clue because he wants me to build around the turbo is this not true is it better to build then get the turbo orwhat because this guy seemed to know his ♥♥♥♥ now you all got me wondering if he is full of it. anyway im thinking some really high flowing heads and a mild cam i dont think i could go heavy if boosed correct? the bottom end will be built up strong

so it sound like a single turbo will be the best route to go for me now what would you all reccomend for the single. Now am i mistaken what thinking that the stroke will change the way the boost hits? talking to my engine builder he said the 383 stroker is amazing with boost. i understand how the turbo itself works but i guess the sizing and picking of the turbo is where i get lost (reading can get very confusing with add my mind wonders really bad and i have to read it like 4-5 times befor it even starts to sink in) ive been told a single t-4 60 trim would be good then others would tell me dont do that go holset i just want to get alot of oppinions befor i start you know to learn off others mistakes

ive been doing alot of reading the last couple days about turbos. I did a search but couldnt find what i needed.i am building a sbc350 to a 383 to build it to optimal i have to decide what turbo to run with i thought about twins then i thought about compound now im seeing sequential and im way over my head basically im going for weekend warrior/ 1/4 mile track car. i would like to get under 10.9 (remember im in colorado high altitude) your suggestions are greatly appreciated

i havent finished it yet but i just bought a wide body kit so i gotta flush that not too lol itll look sick

pics to come very soon i just bought this kit anyone have any good pics of it on a zx? i think its really sexy just my .02 though

when i was considering the tt for my sbc i built the hell out of a th400 and i know thatll hold up but non wc t5 i donno how much power are you going to try to push through it?

i bought my 280zx for 150 bucks id post pics but its in peices inthe garage ill post pics when its done

love it now to make it mine

thanks alot i havent touched the car in ages starting my own company is draining my budged down to nothing but it will pay off in the long run i mean how many 23 yr olds do you see out in the world that have there own house rock crawler, suv, 2 work vans a someday sweet z lol, and own there own electrical company sorry to vent just trying to keep a positive eye on life

sounds like a tripped gfci check the bathrooms and the outdoor areas it was common practice late 80s through the late 90s to have the garage on the same circiut as the restrooms

im finally opening my own electrical company what do you all think?

there is a 240z just down the road from me sitting on 35s its a very sad sight but the dude is a big guy and i think it might take about 3 guys to beat some sense into him

i wish mine was only the brakes lol

sweet you guys rock i really apprectiate it

ok odd moment please forgive me but i got an odd question could i use a basic 350 automotive engine as a boat engine? obviously with the right intake exhaust etc etc. again sorry if this isnt in the righ5 place but i was thinking chevy v8. and does anyone know alot about boats or know any good places to find parts?a mid eightys beachcraft

any more interest its closing down to the last last 19 days to collect 19 days to open your hearts to help a good cause

sticky sticky i vote yes i do it is giving me much needed motivation

so what im understanding is the block is no good either what about the fuel injection?

ok should i just bight the bullet and drop the tune port will it be alot easier and or better what should i go with then i mean i dont want to be totally out is the block still good?

lol oh my god thats very true about higlands ranch very very true
