Tim, I think your spot on. Funny thing is the guy does great work. Did a beutiful job on my NA motor. So I will leave it with him. I know if I call him every week it will get done. Its when you dont call it sits. The squeaky wheel gets the oil.

Ya NOS, thats frightening. It already has 130 HP and weighs less than 400 lbs. It scares me just like it is. (for now) muh hahahah BTW Called the machine shop, says it will be ready next week, I am not counting on it..

The part has been done, still have not gotten my block back from the machine shop (note to self - call machine shop) So, has not run yet. Also, I bought a new bike and have been spending time on that instead of my car. Will be back on the car real soon as I am now happy with my bike

So does this mean all of these versions are JDM, or are people just confusing them because they all look similar?

here it is

So What's with the JDM valve covers I hear people talking about. I have seen 3 different ones that are all called JDM. This one with Nissan Logo, I think in smaller letters This one with Nissan letters larger and more blocky (mine, I found in a US junk yard on a 280z) An one more I have seen with Nissan logo but made from plastic. Does anybody know the correct story??

No, Nothing new. I got it to the point where I need to get some temporary guides and seats in one chamber and flow test it to see if it is worth finishing. I have not been working on my turbo car much since I got my bike. The NA motor has been running strong. I will be getting back on it after the first of the year and things slow down. I'll keep you posted when I move on with it. MONZTER

I got some liquid nitrogen from the welding store. Put it on and the metal and tar shrink at a different rate. It literally fall off. Did it on mine to all of the factory coating on the inside of the car.

Yep 14x1.5, I had a custom left-hand tap made, as it was not available anywhere. So one side is right hand threads, and one side is left hand threads, anybody know why there are left-hand threads? What would happen if you used right hand threads on both sides?

Why do you need an idle screw if you are using an IAC unit? Wont you set the rough idle with the butterflies, and then let the IAC do it thing.

OK I'll Play Engine size= 2.4l +1 Engine work done= Blanced and blueprinted stock rods, factory cast pistons and rings Compression Ratio= 10.6 Head= n-42 Head work done= Welded chambers to 36cc, and ported stainless under cut valves Cam= MSA Stage 3 Intake= modified non egr nissan Intake work done= Matched to intake ports Header & Exhaust= 6-1 header, with full 2/12" into a straight through muffler MSA stuff Type of Fuel control= Electromotive Type of Ignition control= Electromotive Rev Limit= 8000 Accessories= underdrive pully for alt. nothing else Dyno HP at wheels= 209.9 @ 6500 RPM Dyno Tq at wheels= 178.1 @ 5500 RPM MONZTER

Great Idea David, I am sure this will be a big help to everyone out there. Thanks for helping the group. MONZTER

Hi Guys, I moved mine back as far as I could without removing the hood latch, or having to cut up the car. My purpose was not for weight distribution, but to make more room for the cold air intake, radiator fans/balancer, and to smooth out the bends to the turbo and intercooler. 3/4 was the max I wanted to go, which was enough for my needs mentioned above.

HAHAH its missing a wheel too.

1 more non car related But I have this one up as well

Yep, for now just ran it 25" all runners one time. Once we get this pretty close we will run it again one runner at a time. (takes 6 times as long) and then under boost, (18psi) and somewhere around 700cfm. or whatever Justin wants it run at Step by step.
