JelmerPatrol

I ran my BMW M5 3.8 with open stacks once....the noice was breath taking at 7000 rpm!

Shipping from Holland to the US is $120,-

Just buy one of my LD28 crankshafts..... Made in Japan and tested in a diesel for a couple of miles!

Do they excist? BMW's from the seventies use the same barbed injectors but I can't find if they are low or high impedance

I have a Cedric L28 from Japan but that is front sump. My Patrol is mid sump.

Nice project! I had a 84 BMW E28 with a S38B38 in. We still have a couple of S38 engines in the shed and my brother has a S38 turbo in his 85 E28. You should fit euro headers on it, these US manifolds hold back some HP.

PM send

Does anyone have a turbo dizzy that is needed to make a Megasquirt work?

@Chickenman: Thanks! We have 95 ron (91 in US) available as the lowest quality. I plan on running it with coil on plug ignition. Cooling is not an issue either, my Patrol radiator is twice as big as a 280zx radiator and 3 core thick.

Are you from Oz? You guys have Pure Performance motorsport in Australia. Is your car a Cedric?

What is the size of a front cartridge of a S130 / ZX? Length and diameter of shock body. I think they will fit my Laurel C31 but I just want to be sure.

I might have a used set of F54 dished pistons from a 1984 Patrol.

What timing did you run?

I have a set of flat top pistons that I plan on putting in a L28 JDM block that I have. I have a Megasquirt that I will be using for this engine. I've read a lot about the flat tops and a N42 head and this combo will detonate easy. Backing of timing will "solve" this but at a cost: less HP and torque. Compression will be around 9.8 with this combo. Now If I get a P90/P79 head compression will drop to 8.5 but this will not detonate due to the better shaped chambers. But what combo would be better for Hp and torque? I planned on putting a cam in it. Second thing, I original planned on putting a turbo on my Patrol L28E (4000Lb truck) but now that I bought a Datsun Laurel (roughly the same size as a 910 Maxima) I want to put the turbo stuff on a spare L28 that i have and put it in the Laurel. So the flat top engine goes into the Patrol and needs torque rather than lots of Hp. As a cam I need more lift but not a lot of duration so I was thinking of a Racer Brown 325r cam. What do you guys think of this?

If you where in Europe I would have taken it of your hand!

Sounds like you guys need a euro turbo manifold!

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Prachtig werk allemaal! You are using BMW parts too I see!

I bought one of the cranks. Shipping is expensive but a friend of mine ships a pallet to California this week so then shipping is only $100,- to California. From there it has to be shipped again. I'm asking $700,- for the crank.

I have a 1983 Datsun Laurel with a single carb'd L24 (W24 block and E88 head). I also have a spare L28 (N42/N42) that I plan on putting in flat top pistons and a cam. This engine I was planning on dropping the Laurel. Is the N42 better to use on a high compression build or would this E88 be a good head?

I can get 2 LD28 cranks, is there interest in them? Im located in the Netherlands

I'm sorry, I'm using the euro 280zx n/a wiring and US n/a intake manifold and tb. Before this I used my n/a 280zx dizzy on my carburated L28 and had it hooked up at the manifold. This worked good back than.

Where do I hook up the vacuum line for the dizzy? I have 2 vacuum ports on the throttle body and one on top of the manifold where I already have the FPR hooked up.

I don't have it. Can I get them from Nissaan?
