TD05 mitu turbo I think
-
I've seen ppl used the holes for motor mount to hold the motor side way before. But I've my engine on stand with four head bolts in the beall housing holes.
-
I knew the bolts were not going to clear the 3 inch DP but I didn't think DP was going to hit the firewall I was going to go head and make 3 inch DP so when ever I upgrade the turbo, I won't have to redo the DP again.
-
Problem with using a flange is I can't clear the nuts. the studs are too close to the pipe. I can go from 2 1/2 in. and step up to 3 in but I think I'm going to have the DP too close to the fire wall and AC plumbing.
-
This might be silly but has anybody considered welding a 3in. 90 deg mandrel directly on to the wastegate housing? I was think I could weld 90 deg mandral, add a flange on the other end and have a other 90 deg bolted on with flange. I figure that way I can clear 3 inch DP all the way back O, the welding would be done with Nickle rods.

Mine trapped 91mph in 1/4mi. (my ET sux because lack of tune that night) 78 280z with everything on the car except spare tire and bumpers. around 2800lb with me (150-160lb) in it. It's not fast but I got what I claimed. I love to dyno but I got a span rod bearing so it's going to have to wait.
-
I'm about 4HP away from 200HP on L28 with one sick rod bearing according to HP caculator. That's 164RWHP. I'm still running too much fuel, fan clutch, AC, and stock air box. I think there some place for improvement for couple more HP.
-
I got a spare fuel pump from 78. drop me an email @ yo2001@charter.net

C5 could have been supercharged. But as much as I heard it was N/A. Could be stroked LS1 too
-
Demension is too big? I figure that bumper would be longer than a dash.You can send it as oversize item. That's what I had to do.
-
you should be able to UPS it. I've sent two 280z bumpers to CA. I took it to mailbox etc once and other time I just put two moving boxes together then shipped it. Gas tank was hard to send through UPS. lol I had it hot tanked before shipping it.

Actually, the zx has better suspension also. but it is longer so it might not handle as good as Z.
-
There are also 2 different 280z too if you want to get technical. 75-76 with heavy chrome bumper and 77-78 with lighter bumpers and lighter bumper shocks. (they are still heavy) 77-78 also had a bigger gas tank too I think so the wet curb weight, it'll be little bit heavier than dry weight.
-
It's probably 2x inches since it's longer than what I got. I got a 16inch core length.
-
I personally like thick and compact IC.
-
I've been talking to David at Crower about custom length rods. They charge $169 a rod. The cheapest I've found. I hope this helps
-
I'm going to run L26 with P79 with OE headgasket with stock T3 and L28ET ECU down to the knock sensor. I'll have it running before mext month is over so, I'll report what it'll do. O, I got a really good IC so I should be good.
-
Or you can try Crower rods. around $1000 a set of 6.
-
I heard that the speedo was tricked with a less teeth gear so the speedo would o up faster than the actual speed. Still pretty darn fast though

http://www.autospeed.com/A_0901/page1.html This is pretty good article. plastic end on supra isn't good but I figure you can strap it and it'll be okay.
