Progress on my insane VQ35HR 240Z project

Ok, that is freaking sick! I love that idea! -

Nice! Did you tune it yourself? -
Ok that's like exactly what I'm looking for! Thanks amigo! I'm going to spend more on this than anything else I've bought so far it seems ha.

That's great info, that points me in the right direction! So if/when you get the AIM PDM are you just taking out the racecapture? Maybe I'm just not seeing it but it seems like all of AIM's displays are also dataloggers aren't they?

I am very interested in seeing how this pans out. For some reason i can't seem to find any threads that have the swap 100% done (though I can see that they are out there as people reference them). I'll grab some popcorn and watch you finish it in this build!

So I'm active on the 240z subreddit and a fellow enthusiast on there was giving away these sweet original brochures from Sweden or whatever. I messaged him and he sent them over, what a great guy! These were pretty cool to get. I plan on framing them and hanging them in the garage.- 168 replies

Very interesting. Does the subframe swap just give your rear suspension better geometry overall? Just curious why people swap it out if they're not doing the AWD or something.
-
Dang this is looking good! Is that an R32 subframe? How hard is it to fit in? Also, you're not doing AWD are you? Just rear?

Man I can't believe I've never seen this thread! So stoked to find it while it's nearing completion! It's looking awesome so far!

@Boben Good suggestion! I'm sure I'll apply something like that to it to make sure I don't suddenly lose all my oil! And this is the exact one I bought: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-Intercooler-25X12X3-2-5-Inlet-Outlet-Toyota-Acura-BWM-Audi-Honda-Mazda/161332406851?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 It's now $1100 apparently which is crazy because I paid $78 bucks for it ha. I was able to use the 90 degree rubber and it fit perfectly! Like a glove, no cutting needed! Any bigger would definitely require cutting I bet. The openings are 2.5" FWIW.- 168 replies

Hey Ben, what are your thoughts about your digi dash setup? Do you like it? Do you wish you did it differently or are you happy with it? Also, if your engine throws codes, it doesn't show up does it?

Note: One problem I had with the low pressure pump is they no longer make it and so I couldn't get a replacement for the little weird bolt it had. These were stripped and the threads were so small that it didn't instill confidence. So instead I made my own substitutes with some threaded rod of the same diameter as the smooth piece that fits in the rubber grommet and a few nuts placed around. Worked perfect! I do have reservations about it cutting through the rubber but I figure it won't cut completely through, only as deep as the threads.- 168 replies

So the last I updated about the fuel I was trying to make the stock tank work. After fiddling around with that for a bit I decided I'd rather just get a cheap fuel cell and run with that! So here's the cheap eBay beaut in all her glory! You can see this is the setup of it all for the most part. I laid it out to get a clear picture of things. I got tired of trying to fit it in the wheel well so instead I cut that off! I was careful not to cut into the metal of the actual floor but instead only cut the wheel well material. I want to use the flange for a cover or something. Next I cut- 168 replies

Yeah the hope is really soon. I still have some updating to do but I'm very close to getting it started. I need a little bit of cash to get a few tidbits to finish it off though!- 168 replies
