Heat wrap does wonders. The stock turbo manifold heat shield between intake also helps thats what Im running.

Home Built Z 'Full video build'
softopz replied to Home Built by Jeff's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
Hey Jeff enjoyed the updates. Just noticed you played around with the booster . Be careful of the "reaction disk" its just a rubber oring seal round donut seal thingy inside the booster didnt get popped of place..... If its not in place properly It will drive you crazy and you have rear brakes lock up. Make sure thats in the right spot. Good luck Edit oh if you do the 260z/280z dash its doable there is a bit of difference but you may want to get the matching middle console... -
I think SDS is a bit outdated for this motor. IT works and works decent but its pretty old school EFI I think its got like 6x6 fuel maps . ECU masters, Haltech and megasquirt are all good choices. Keep up the good work though

A friend of mine just got one from mazworks contact them and see.

I cant post my car in the forum is it locked ? I am a donating member if that makes a difference.

IF im not mistaken the the thread is m10x1.25 on the manifold side and the turbo side its coarse thread 1.5

RWB Jeff - 1970 Datsun 240z - Build
softopz replied to 240zJJR's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
Well said I remember when I first started out about early 2000's when a l28et swap was sort of a big deal. There was also way less products out there *motor mount kits, suspension, drive train, and brake choices . Not to mention all the carbon fiber and exterior body panels. The bar is so high right now haha I love it lots of content and new ideas/builds. Street banditos is probably my favorite you tube Channel. The editing, the build and especially the chemistry of that shop very cool. I feel like they should be 1mil subscribers very under rated on YouTube. Team Boosted is another channel I follow good to see them moving up! You got my sub Jeff on youtube and facebook like! I am in Ontario, Ottawa to be specific would love to see this thing when its done! Goodluck Hussein -

T3/T4 Turbo that spools like stock?
softopz replied to AlbatrossCafe's topic in Turbo / Supercharger
At your goals I recommend finding a stock T3 and rebuilding/upgrading it to t4 compressor wheel. I may have the compressor housing for it actually. And I may have a spare turbo lying around internally gated. Also good choices are turbonetics for t3/t4 they are within your price range and you can get internally gated I believe with adding the gate on hot side. -
KID!? Thats a serious update man. 3 pages I never seen this build before. Quality workmanship just love it! I have to start on page 1 though maybe another day.

Just enjoyed the last 2 pages @! im drooling here. That rotisserie is how every z should be done.

Dyno'd my stock L28ET today - coolant everywhere!
softopz replied to AlbatrossCafe's topic in Nissan L6 Forum
You need to calibrate it with the "sequencer" mode Usually flashes 3 numbers on the gauge for 3 seconds each as it starting. 13.3 16.6 and 19.9 If I remember go to https://www.14point7.com/blogs/news/16539352-maximizing-accuracy-between-spartan-2-and-megasquirt Look at tunerstudio numbers as its flashing on the gauge then use the excel spreadsheet to input those numbers. Those numbers look very normal, remember this is a bone stock 5psi on a stock t3 . With a decent modern turbo, exhaust mods, modern efi and fuel to support you should see double that.- 32 replies

@Chickenman IS your man send him a PM. I am an authorized MS dealer and make some goofy looking harness's

I have the engine mounts already . Do you have tranny mounts for r154. Geno what didnt you like about the motor mounts to forward? I wasnt going with the cast log pieces I was thinking along the tlines header/tubular manifold. I need some input because I read up some of the 2jz vvti motors had clearning issues. I think its the water neck Im not 100% sure though.

Hey guys slowly gathering parts here for the future JZ swap. I will be running CX mounts and gt3582 just want to know if theres a single manifold design to stay away from in terms of clearing shock tower. What are you guys running? I was thinking the lines of a cheap manifold and have my friend add some nice thick welds as reinforcements.

Megasquirt Plug and Play Harness and Pre configured ECU's
softopz replied to softopz's topic in Vendor's Forum
Hey thanks for interest Take your time whenever your ready IM super swamped now actually I have 4 I need to finish this month. 1. Yes $750 is harness w/fusebox and air/clt temp sensors 2. You can use your stock injectors most guys upgrade since you are doing a standalone Engine Management System that control every aspect of the tune. -
L6 DIS Brackets (LSX) Are Available Once Again
softopz replied to ThatOneZ's topic in Vendor's Forum
I have sent a couple of PM's my guess is hes busy or not doing this. If hes not doing this anyone have the file I could cut them locally I could use a set for my ls coil swap. -
ANOTHER Datsun Z/LS3/T56 Swap Thread
softopz replied to Ironhead's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
First thing off epic build thats some crazy stitch welds never seen that many. I was once told by an old timer that too much could be overkill and be counter intuitive if god forbid accident since these are areas that need to be crumple. With that said torque usually raises the diff up and most of your mount/bracing is targeting to the bottom. Hence I see why you want to do a 3.0 maybe just a simple brace from where you already have the mount like attached in the pic in yellow? you can go straight or do a little bend with a slight gusset. -
As the guys mentioned the drawbacks are EMI inside the ECU but lots of people do it this way with no issues, the other drawback is you need to install 3 BIP's for a multi coil (caravan , ford 6 cylinder coil) OR 6 BIP for ford pencil Coils firing wasted. Some people would rather just hook up the EDIS 6 Ignition module to fire the coil packs its easier from a modification perspective. Since we were talking Microsquirt you cant add BIP's you would have to go ms2 OR just run the EDIS 6 ignition module.

Micro squirt is great dont get me wrong but with 1 high output its very limited. I will choose a Megasquirt 2 ECU especially nowadays when fan control is not the only output you want. To the original poster I can get you everything you need to either build an ms2 system ( same price as DIY , from a kit ie sensors, connector plugs, wiring loom, relay board or custom fusebox) Or I could make a turnkey package for you. Either way PM me I could help you choose a package. For EDIS ignition system you can run the module and dont need to do any board mods. You have to use a Ford CAS. There is benefits to this ie: less work to do and a limp mode feature incase shit. Drawbacks is you have to use the Ford CAS and its limited in the trigger offset *unless code has changed* OR add high current drivers to the ECU, Run any wasted COP or multi fire coil packs. Also benefits and drawbacks to this.
