  1. Still have the swap for sale? I a very interested in everything but the car.

    Cheers.

  2. Ill buy the oil pan and oil pick up (are they brand new?) and Mc Kinney throttle cable, please provide USPS shipping quote and paypal acount info. Thanks

    Also, do you have pictures of the following:

    1. Custom 2.5 ltr surge tank intake with Q45 throttle body $200

    2. Custom intake manifold $100

    Thanks! -Sal

  3. check out GTmotorsports.com they are doing some amazing stuff with VQ's. My 370z will be getting one of there tt kits in the near future.
  4. Well i have not driven the new Mustang but i do own a 10' 370z. I don't think i would get the same enjoyment out of the mustang. Unless you are into drag racing, which neither are suited for, The Z is the hansd down winner. i live in socal and regularly drive my Z up palamar mt and ortega highway and the Z is solid, amazing amounts of grip for a stock car. It tells you when you are getting close to the limit. and in the vlsd, 275 rear tires, and the revsync these car can be pushed i don't think it would be nearly as fun with the solid rearend of the Ford.
  5. the w/g tubing will to be modded. as it is directly in the way of the steering linkage. other than that everything else is great.
  6. here are a few pics of the Stec manifold bolted up in a s30 chassis. Hey Soileau after looking at you manifold from Stec it looks like e might have changed the design a little bit from the original prototype( my manifold), your wastegate tubes are located in different positions. The next time I talk with Scott from Stec i will ask him for sure. your manifold looks like it might be a little bit easier to mod. If anyone would like more pictures let me know, as it is still setup.
  7. there is a ground wire coming off the coil harness that gets grounded on the rear bolt of the rear coil bracket, make sure that this wire is not broken and that the terminal is clean.
  8. i have been running NGKr -8's in my setup with no issues running 23-30psi with t04r. when i get a chance i will try the actual part # shortly.
  9. I ran the Hks gate on this manifold before. it was all right, but i was having issues with boost surge due to out flowing my exhaust housing and w/g. i fixed that issue by using a p trim cutback exhaust wheel. At the time this was all with stock cams. Now that i have the 270deg. 10.3mm tomei procams going in it i think i will be flowing a lot more and i do not want to run into the same issue as before. So i am going to run 2 of fullraces 60mm w/g's. with 1 kilo springs in them. this should allow me to keep the .82 a/r T4 exhaust housing and p trim cut back wheel while taking advantage of the larger cams. All in all i am trying max out my T04R compressor. will it happen i don't know but it should be fun trying. The way the Stec manifold is designed i think it will take advantage of the divided pulses either way with a single or twin w/g the only factor that i can come up with between the two is the flow rates of one gate vs two.
  10. I don't know, but I have not had any problems with them so far. Met and talked with them several times over the last few months.
  11. I pulled this from wikipedia. RB25DE and DET engines produced from August 1993 also featured NVCS (Nissan Variable Cam System) for the intake cam. This gave the new RB25DE more power and torque at lower rpm than the previous model. From 1995, both the RB25DE and RB25DET had a revised electrical system and the turbo charger on the RB25DET had a plastic compressor wheel rather than ceramic. Generally these engines are referd to as Series 2 engines. The Most obvious change to the system was the introduction of ignition coils with built in ignitors, therefore the coil ignitor that was on previous models was not used. Other changes were, different air flow meter, engine ecu, cam angle sensor and throttle position sensor. Mechanicly series 1 and series 2 are exactly the same. In May 1998 a NEO head was fitted, which enabled the engine to be classified as a low emission vehicle engine (LEV) due to their lower fuel consumption and emission output. The Neo head featured solid lifters rather than hydraulic, revised camshafts and a revised inlet manifold, in particular the RB25DE Neo which had 2 inlets going into the inlet manifold. The combustion chamber of the head is smaller, so GT-R-spec connecting rods are used to compensate. The turbo received the larger OP6 turbine. The non-VCT, non-turbo RB25DE was fitted to the R32 Skyline, the VCT turbo and non-turbo was fitted to R33 Skylines and the WC34 Stagea. Early R34 Skylines use the non neo RB, later models use the Neo version. R32 Skyline RB25DE Camshaft duration 240°in, 232°ex lift: 7.8mm in, 7.3mm ex R33 Skyline RB25DE Camshaft duration 240°in, 240°ex lift: 7.8mm in, 7.8mm ex RB25DET Camshaft duration 240°in, 240°ex lift: 7.8mm in, 7.8mm ex RB25DE Neo Camshaft duration 236°in, 232°ex lift: 8.4mm in, 6.9mm ex RB25DET Neo Camshaft duration 236°in, 232°ex lift: 8.4mm in, 8.7mm ex
  12. I have a 220zr sump pan on there. yeah it sucks that i will have to cut up the manifold, but it will be all right. Not a problem, it actually fits very well. I will be posting up more pictures as i go along modding the W/G piping. No, no price cut. I just bit the bullet and bought all the stuff cause it is known to work. i am already going to be fabbing enough stuff for this project.
  13. Hey Colgan! good to hear from you man. Nice build on your Z. i looked threw your thread. Looks good.
  14. Motor mounts intercooler and radiator are all from mckinney motorsports. As for the surge tank, i had it made at a tuning shop on Okinawa, JP called S-Tec. later i will try and take a few more pictures.
  15. Well here is a little bit of an update. I got back from my trip to the east coast and have had some free time to work on the Z. I went and picked up several of the parts that I ordered from Mckinney Motorsports as it is only a 15min drive from my house. I went ahead a dropped the motor into the car to check clearances with my intake and exhaust manifolds. The intake need to be redesigned due to the throttle body flange angle running into the fender. Now the exhaust manifold gives plenty of clearance for the turbo from the shock tower, but i need to relocate the wastegate piping to clear the steering linkage. Also while i was at it i mocked up the radiator and intercooler for clearance checks and to start designing the piping.
