Adding n42 intake. $350 shipped in lower 48?

Just bought a L28et from a car with 90k on it. I saw a video of the car running but it wasn't building boost. But it idled well and tried to rev. Turbo is shot and hitting the housing on compressor and turbine side I took these off last night and have not cleaned them up and thought i would offer them up on here and see if i can get a decent price before I list them on ebay. Paying through Venmo is the best All parts are sold as is. 280zx turbo distributor, distributor shaft, cap and wires. As stated I saw videos of it running but I have not used it. Looks to be in good shape and the cap is newer and the plug wires seem to be pretty high quality and made in USA. $425 OBO Shipped in lower 48 Turbo AFM. Looks to be in ok shape. Has been opened and is missing the cover. I have not put a multi meter on it to test but the car ran to well for it not to work. Comes with the bracket $190 obo Shipped in lower 48 L28et Fuel rail injectors and Fuel pressure regulator. Appear to be stock injectors. I cycled them all with a battery and they sound good and do not sound gummy. Includes injector seals which are in really good serviceable shape. Not cracked that I can see. All pintle caps are present and the FPR holds pressure with my mighty-vac. $200 OBO Shipped in lower 48 Turbo manifold. In really good shape. Just as i took it off. All studs are good and heat shields are present. I believe this is the first time its been off and there was zero exhaust leaks on the turbo or the head side. $275. Plus shipping. I want to calculate this one as its so heavy. Turbo Actuator. Good used actuator. Tested it with my mighty-vac and it holds pressure. $50 OBO shipped in lower 48 J-Pipe Paint is ok but its in good shape. The TB rubber is very pliable. Turbo side is serviceable but stiffer. $80 shipped in lower 48 I have other things ill get listed as i get pictures. Turbo oil pan, sensors and control valves on intake manifold. thermo housings etc. Things i might be convinced to sell. freshly bead blasted N42 intake. Complete oil cooler from block adapter to cooler,

I have been. And for those searching its nivlac57 on YouTube. I have a 84 maxima wagon and I measurd once when I had my engine out and it was to close to try. I am interested in yhe 5 cylinder though as it would fit under my hood.

Any Reason to find one if you havent been running one? Asking for a friend....

Who said anything about stock??? Its turbo'd but the the overdrive in the auto is .686 and a 3.7 rear end. It goes 80mph at 3k with the ac blowing cold and will stay cool even in 100 deg heat. But thanks. I think im gonna just have to buy one to try

Wy wouldn't you want cruise to set faster than 75? Interstates are 75mph and traffic goes 80. Turnpike speeds are 85.

Does some one know how fast you can set the cruise on 280zx or a z31 300zx? by that I mean is there a limit to the speed it will allow you to engage cruise control? I have a 1984 maxima wagon and my cruise works fine except that by design it wont allow me to set cruise past 75mph. Is this limitation the same on the 280zx and the 300zx? I'm looking to swap in a cruise control module from the same era of car that doesn't limit the speed. Ive already looked at the wiring and the 280zx looks to be plug in. and a 300zx will have to be reworked but doable. Thanks in advance.

Been done. If I recall correctly One member on here or on zcar.com ground them down by rubbing them on his garage floor.

Thabks for the info. I'm pretty sure I have a bit more with in my engine bay than a s30 does but yes I like the idea of making a cardboard mockup. Or maybe even 3d print one. Sorry to threadjjack. But thanks for the info

This is the one ive been looking at. https://www.siliconeintakes.com/front-mount-intercooler/water-to-air-intercoolers-p-213.html I believe i have room on the intake side right by the strut tower to sneak it in . I'm not doubting that its working well. And the fact that your not seeing those spikes is due to the thermal mass of the intercooler and antifreeze thats in it soaking up the heat from the charge temp. I guess my thinking is when is a colder IAT not a good thing? And what are you trying to avoid by having it run all the time? If its noisy and it bugs you. Sure, I can understand that. Its only pulling a few amps and I just dont see a downside other than maybe noise from the pump. With that said. Ill leave you alone to your decision. I dont run megasquirt currently but it seems that the simple way would be on off with a relay that you could tie into which ever data point you want. There isnt going to be one right answer for this. When autocrossing I would want it on 100% of the time. On your turbo setup. How do you like that turbo? When does boost come in? That turbo has been on my radar for the future. Im not looking for a hp monster any more. I want 300 ish hp to the wheels on my wagon. Its a cruiser not a drag car! What i want is power lower in the rpm range. I wont be getting the protunerz manifolds. while nice i know i just wont spend the money on them. But I may be convinced to go away from my 2nd hand cheapskate tendencies to get a nice turbo for once.

On your setup, What size is your core and how much hp are you making? What size of heat exchanger out front? Like I said i like the idea. Id have to position things differently as yours is right where my ac compressor is and thats not going anywhere!!!

Hey. Ive been toying with running something similar as I dont want to cut up the front of my car (84 maxima). My question is why dont you think it needs to be running all the time? Per your testing you state that it takes 10 seconds to bring the temp down from 100deg to 55 deg. So your driving along(in mexico) and the intake temp is 75-80 deg and a car pulls up and you have a competition on who is faster. Your intake temps are going to spike well above 100 deg right away then your pump kicks on and 10 seconds later(if not longer as i doubt that test was done under boost) your intake temps get under control. Any delay in the cooling will a hurt performance. My car currently has no intercooler and at a low 7psi my intake temps can go into the 160-170 deg in well under a second of boost. An intercooler isnt there to remove heat after the fact like a radiator. Its there to remove the heat before it goes into intake. sure use the MS to trigger a relay but id keep it on any time the car is running.

did you ever get any of that CFD done on the MN47?

Its just some steel tubing/piping. if your needing to replace one. measure the whole and add a few thousandths and find a pipe the right size to shove it in there. A metal lathe would help to get a perfect size but you can do sufficient job with a flat file.

Thought I'd offer this up on here before I throw it on ebay. 280zx turbo oil pan from a parts engine i had years ago. It's been beat on the bottom some but I pounded it out decently and It should work with out issue. Not sure what's it worth but these are getting rare. $150 obo plus sshipping. Flang is flat. Id use it but my car is front sump(maxima) I didn't paint and thought I'd leave that to your preference.
