Mike, I wouldnt take a chance on the bigger runners. Go with the 190 or 195s. What is your RWHP now? If your running 12.30s at 2730lbs, you should be pushing around 348 RWHP or so. I should be in the elevens with 380RWHP. I think you would be real happy with the 195s with your setup or the 190s if you dont plan on going 383...

Thanks Owen! Im gonna scarf some up...

Can someone tell me if 240SX and 180SX rear calipers are the same. There are a ton of these cars in the junk yards here in Okinawa. The 180SX is the Japanese counterpart of the American 240SX. I think Ross wanted $300+ bucks for a pair that goes to the rear upgrade. If they are the same I can get these here cheap because everyone is always upgrading from them....any input? Stoney you out there?

I went to AutoShop Turbo the first time. I am going to HKS next because they have a better Dyno that shows the torque curve as well. They will give me 2 runs for 5000yen. I can advance the timing and see if it helps. The AutoShop Turbo guy was kinda clueless. I had to school him on the automatic. He kept asking me where the clutch was...lol. The first run he did the run in 2nd gear, it tried to lift off the roller. It scared the piss out of me because I could just see my car crashing into the wall in front. The second run, he got it right. Its a trip seeing your car doing 200KPH on a roller. I will get some pics/mpgs in Dec if I get to run.

ScottyMiz, your car looks awesome...wholly crap I love it! Thanks for the advice. I wish Japan had more 240s here...there just not around much. Im trying to hold off the turbo blenders single handed. Ineed help!!!! Somebody join the Marines and bring your Zs over here!!! LOL.

Mike, Im running 9:7:1 with everything I know about my setup. I basically built the 450HP (crank) setup that AFR has on their site. The only difference is mine is .040 over vice .030. If I compare my rear wheel (380 HP) and subtract it from the 450 crank HP, i am netting only a 15.5% drivetrain loss. That rocks! Surely Im not making more than 450 at the crank.
Yes their cams rock. Mine is 230/236 510/520 at 110 LS. Looks like a step up from yours. Your compression is a bit higher than mine. What numbers do you get when you put your setup into DeskTop? Just curious. Mine is right on with AFRs numbers.

Check Dyno tests....

Mike, YES!!!!! Get the AFRs. I am awe with them. Unbelievable results on the DYNO. I think you read my post on it. $1200 out of the box. I would suggest the match ported intake as well. I can feel my exhaust hit me at idle standing 5 feet away with Mufflers attached. Pretty cool.

Thanks DavyZ! Well there will be a few that I can't touch but I will beat at least 80% of them. Dollar for dollar spent, no one can touch me....especially naturally aspirated. With all things being equal the V8 will be the star of the show. Now if I can olny get a V8 that is built!

Thanks guys for the advice. Stony has told me he uses the solid mount with no problems. At the moment we are putting out about the same power to the rear wheels so the solid diff should work. However I am putting a stage III Raptor 700R4 in October that has superhard shifts. Im a little hestitant about the shifts from 1st to second at 5800RPMS. I think Ill go ahead and try the solid mount and see if it works out. If not Ill get another cross member and strap it again. By the way those numbers are probably coming mostly from the AFR heads and intake...I love em!

Roger that! Thanks for the advice. Well I guess I will go a little thicker strap of steel and work that out. My straps are on my site. Let me know what you think about those. The straps were only 1mm galvanized metal however. Ill try a 3 or 4mm strap out of aluminized steel. Thanks for the post!

Well, I went down and made a run on my 240 and freaked everyone out!!!! I was stoked to see the results as well. My build is a 450HP crank build and I expected no more than 340 from the rear. I dynoed a whopping 380 HP from the rear wheels!!!!! I am so happy. The car tried to jump off the roller once and fire shot out the rear when it was coming down...too cool. Everyone at the shop started asking me where the turbo was hiding!
I told them it N/A. Then they started asking me what the names and makes of all my parts were....too funny. Needlesss to say I caught thier attention. Remember the SBC 350 is an import over here in Okinawa. I had a great day but I also snapped both steel straps I made to hold the diff down to the cross member. Now I have to fix it before I can get on it. I an just gonna buy the solid diff mount from MSA and forget about it. I will put the dyno sheet on my site. It sucks because they dont show a gradual curve. They only show max HP at the RPM obtained and the torque at the max hp. Its exciting that I made 435 Newton Meters (325 torque) at 6120 at the wheels! According to Afr it really close. They had 375 crank torque at 6000 listed. All the turboed car are running way less torque even though some of them are hitting the same HP or more with heavier cars. The calculator says I should run low 11s! I hope so. My Z is 2410 now without me and 2600 with. What a good day it was today! Now I gotta show up at the next Japan HKS meet in December!!!!! Thanks for reading! -
OK I just got back from the HKS drag comp here in Okinawa Japan. I saw a S30 Z with the SR20 DET swap. It looked nice. You can see it on my site under "CAR SHOW". It had a huge Turbo on it and ran a 7.1 sec in the 150 meters. Track too short for a full 1/8th. That is 487.5 feet. I wonder what that equates to in the 8th and 1/4? HorsePower? I dont know the trap speed. It was decent. The fastest car was a 5.3 sec run. There was so many skyline GTRs with the same ole RB setup out there it was not even amuzing. Dont get me wrong, I like the RB26 Turbo setup in a Z, but DAMN everyone basically had the same ole thing. 80% of the people had the same car and engine. Just goes to show you that theres not much flexibility over here. If they could only understand what being original meant. Besides the SR20 DET Z, I would have been the talk of the show regardless of the times I would have run. Theres nothing like the sound of a V8 open headers running down the track. According to similiar horsepower and weight consideration, I expect that my Z will run a 6.2 or so at this track. I will run in Dec at the next meet after I get it tuned and replace the tranny etc. I have to run in the open class because I will be the only V8 there! What a fricken RUSH that will be. As far as I see it, I will beat 80% of the cars there as ther were only about 5 or so in the 5 sec range and maybe 10 in the 6 sec range. The majority were i the 7s to 9s. The Rotaries were impressive but not that impressive considering the money being dumped into these projects. A nicely setup V8 non Turbo with LSD could have easily been the star of the show here today. We all know hooking up isnt a problem if its built right. I am talking about a 1/4 track car for this event only. Slalom builds are another story. More later!

Yeah....tell me about it..

ZFAN, I got the HP 750DP classic. The guys told me it was 70 primary and 80 secondary. It runs a little rich so I was thinking about putting in 76s on the secondaries to start. Maybe 68s on the front afterwrds. My power valve should be a 4.5 or so since I only get 5 hgs of vaccuum in gear. I have the XE282HR Cam 12-432-8 and love it so far.. retrofit. 8)

Thanks Mike. I just wanted to make sure I didnt lose any HP by using it. Yeah I can still close the hood.
Thanks..

I have the AFR190 heads and intake. What I have noticed is that I MUST run a 1 inch spacer to get the carb to fit without hitting the PCV hose coming out of the intake. Is it OK to run filter on both Valve covers and let it vent naturally without worrying about internal pressure build up? I would then have to run my vaccuum for the brake line straight off my carb instead. Is that OK and has anyone had to do that? First time I have seen an intake like this. Any advice?

Guys heres the pic of my MSD Distributor gear. Grumpy I understand the mod you told me about filing the groove on the shaft just above the gear for better oiling. If you look at the left Mallory the file place is one solid area (not a problem). The right MSD shaft has a break in between the lower area to be filed. This is for fitting an O-Ring for modified blocks that can accept this. My question is do I file both areas at the bottom on the MSD one? The lower area above the gear and the next small area just above where the O-Ring would go?
Thanks in advance....

There be NITTOS on my Z....looks awesome. 275 50 15s Now just to get that Bronze gear installed....

So what do you guys think of this for quick jet tuning? Is this legit? I want it!
