  1. nothing found yet. still looking!!! thanks
  2. replied. still looking. let me know what you got. to expedite the process you can send pictures of what you got to my email: g35_808@yahoo.com thanks again to all!!!
  3. hey everyone, i need the following for my 1972 240z: *driver side fender *passenger side fender *hood *doors skins (exterior) *headlight housings (both) would be great if you were located on the west coast to lower shipping cost which i will coordinate and pay for. i am located in hawaii. i have all these parts but they are rusted/dented beyond economical repair. that being said, i'm not looking for fixer-uppers, dents/dings, pieces with body filler, etc. i want parts that require MINIMUM body work. i am willing to pay the extra cost associated with this quality. please let me know. thanks in advance!!!
  4. that's exactly what i meant. my rebuilt l24 with stock carbs, cam, headers and full exhaust sounds awesome to me. i drove a friend's l28 with triple mikuni's and almost wet my pants:shock:
  5. 90% of me wants to build the 3.1 stroker. lots of info and how-to's, sounds amazing, super nostalgic, etc. it's just that 10% screaming at me that in a year i'm going to be unhappy with the power. and i wont' be able to simply bolt on power adders as the stroker will be built 10.5-11:1 c/r (so turbo, even low boost, would be unsafe so that's out the window).
  6. please correct me, i want a real-world idea of the hp/torque numbers for a stroker. and please correct my price, keep in mine i'm in hawaii so although i can buy a f54 block for $100, it'll cost me $250 just to ship it here from the west coast. i'd like to keep this an all nissan/datsun car. i know the "best bang for buck" would be a v8 or l28t. if i keep the l-series (l31), i'd like to keep it n/a and carbed, again for the nostalgia. if i wanted to covert to fuel injection, i'd swap in a rb25de with itb's, cams and a good tune (would probably push close to or as much hp as the stroker without spending all that money on the build). if i go forced induction, it'll be a SR or RB. i like that the RB because it's still an inline-6. but building a solid SR is easy and cost efficient. with the custom l31 set-up i listed above, what kind of numbers can i expect to see? how's about adding nitrous (75-100hp progressive shop) to a triple carbed stroker...i could live with that?
  7. here's a list of engines i am considering for my 1972 240z. i know i want something that can reliably push 300+hp. i'll settle for a little less from the stroker just because of the sound of those carbs and the over-all nostalgia. i'm so torn, i'd hate to spend ~$8000 (practically max out the l-series engine) and feel unpowered in a year or two. with the SR i get great power, light-weight, almost unlimited part selection but that awkward gap (personal preference for the z) in the engine bay. the RB would give amazing power, but at a cost. remember, i want this to be reliable so i'm gonna do a rebuild regardless. i know there's a lot more involved with these swaps like fuel upgrade, tuning, custom driveshaft, clutch, etc but i just put together a simple list. i don't need a 10-second car, but i want something extremely fun to drive on the streets, that should do sub-13 seconds down the 1/4 mile with supporting mods. so which would you choose....and why? SR20DET: *Mckinney Mount Kit $0600 *Engine $2000 *Machine Work $0500 *Forged Pistons and Rods $0800 *Gasket Kit $0300 *Brian Crower Camshafts $0300 *Titanium Springs/Retainers $0200 *GT3071R Turbo (w/ manifold, d/p, etc) $2000 *720cc Injectors $0300 *Electromotive Tec3 Stand-Alone $2000 *Odds and Ends $0500 *Total $9500 Estimated Horsepower: 350-450 RB25DET: *Mckinney Mount Kit $0600 *Engine $3000 *Machine Work $0600 *Forged Pistons and Rods $1200 *Gasket Kit + Greddy Timing Belt $0600 *GT3076R Turbo (w/ manifold, d/p, etc) $2000 *850cc Injectors $0500 *Electromotive Tec3 Stand-Alone $2000 *Odds and Ends $0500 *Total $11000 Estimated Horsepower: 425-525 RB20DET: *Mckinney Mount Kit $0600 *Engine $1500 *Machine Work $0600 *Forged Pistons and Rods $1200 *Gasket Kit + Greddy Timing Belt $0600 *GT3071R Turbo (w/ manifold, d/p, etc) $2000 *720cc Injectors $0500 *Electromotive Tec3 Stand-Alone $2000 *Odds and Ends $0500 *Total $9500 Estimated Horsepower: 325-425 L31 STROKER: *F54 Block $0300 *P90 Head $0400 *V07 Crankshaft $0500 *Machine Work $1000 *9mm 240Z Rods $0300 *Arias Forged Pistons $0700 *Aftermarket Camshaft $0300 *Kameari Twin Idler Gear $0700 *Gasket Kit $0500 *Triple 45 Carbs $1500 *Electromotive XDI $0800 *Odds and Ends $0500 *Total $7600 Estimated Horsepower: 250-335 L31 STROKER (Pre-Built Ebay): *F54/P90/V07 Pre-Built $4000 *Aftermarket Camshaft $0300 *Kameari Twin Idler Gear $0700 *Triple 45 Carbs $1500 *Electromotive XDI $0800 *Odds and Ends $0500 *Total $7800 Estimated Horsepower: 220-335
  8. ok, here's what i've got so far. i'd rather not have to do the p90 head shave mod if i can avoid it. *f54 block *p90 head *1mm headgasket *v07 crank *240z 9mm rods *arias KA24E domed pistons (89mm, 1.34 c/h, 10.4cc dome) bore diameter: 3.50 stroke length: 3.26 head cc: 53.6 head gasket: .039 (1mm) head gasket bore: 3.50 piston to deck clearance: .023 this yeilds a 3.08 displacement and a compression ratio of 10.7:1. my question now is, with these arias pistons, will the piston to deck clearance or piston deck height still be .023" (.6mm)? and because of the positive deck height + the domed pistons, will i have adequate valve clearance with the stock p90?
  9. i've been doing some searching and i just had a quick questions. using the vo7 crank, 73 240z rods, 89mm arias pistons (4.2cc dome), 1mm head gasket and a p90 head; i've calculated a ~8:1 compression ratio. i'm trying to get something closer to a 10-11:1 compression ratio. i know this is possible using a smaller cc head, but, from what i've been reading the p90 flows much better than the e-88/n-42. i guess what i'm trying to ask is, is it better (in regards to hp and torque) to use the p90 head at a lower compression or to used a smaller head (e-88, etc) at a higher compression? thanks!
  10. these look like rewinds. but i can't see the brand and i'd really like to know the width, off-set, tire size, etc. these wheels are absolutely amazing. I NEED THEM! thanks for all your help in advance.
