  1. I forgot to mention, i plan on running seqential(please forgive spelling) turbos.
  2. First of i was planning on going for a used turbo, and i was actually gonna try twin turbo, thats why im planning on making my own intake and exhaust so i can make more room. Measuring up twin turbos should work from a 300zx z32, that way thiers no problems with lag or choking. Whats the current price range for after market ignition and fuel control?
  3. I suppose thats kinda good cause now i dont have to take the sump off and change it to dished pistons, just have to change the head to a p79 if i can find one.
  4. Just curious, are the bodys different from the American versions to the Australian versions. I was planning on running an intercooler but just in having a look today, thier dosnt seem to be much space to get the piping to the front and back to the engine. I found out today that i have a n47 head and it has dished pistons in it, im guessing that the engine has been swaped in the past to the 75-80 model.
  5. Now if we calm down and relise the simple differences like that octane,spelling and availability is different in Australia to America. My main question was since i am in Australia, whats the best way to do it since im from oversea's is no doubt a bit pricy. I have searched and found that its a great idea to change some heads and pistons and just grab stuff of a turbo car, but you'll find it difficult to find a z car in Austrailan wreakers now a days. So anyway if it pains you so much to read it, then dont, then you don't have to waste time on replying. Thanks flat black and pyro. Now cause i have an Australian Right hand drive model, id be thinking that i wouldn't have things like a steering shaft and clutch masters and a brake booster in the way, but could that mean that other things have been moved in the way? I don't plan any crazy power figures, my plan is to have it a bit more tourqy and a bit more powerfull then my 300zx z32, which is non turbo i might add. i believe that sets the bar around 240hp/180 at the fly.
  6. hi guys how are ya all? im from australia and we didn't get the turbo'd 280 in australia so i would like some advice please. so with the n/a, does it have strong enough crank and conrods, ive herd that the main difference between the two is the pistons. now ive got an 82 280zx so im in beliefe that ive got the flat top pistons. what sort of boost range should i be around?? ive read up to 10 is fine if the ignition is all done right. my plan is to make my own custom intake and exhaust, so that being sorted i was wondering about the timing, most important ofcourse. should i go about making my own digital timing system or is thier easeir ways around it. im pritty talented so i can customize some things to match if need.
  7. ah ok then it makes sense now
  8. hi guys im ryan, i live in australia, and something ive noticed while reading and searching this forum is that the comon octane rating in america is like 91 or the such. in australia our minimal is llike 93, and we generaly have a choice of 95 or even 98. this intrest me because i plan on turbo'ing my N/A, and since the turbo modle didn't come out down here i wasn't planing on changing much besides the fuel injectiong and timing, so leaivng compresion the same. so is it that we have much higher ratings down here in australia or that thiers some difference in mesuaring so they end up the same any way? kinda like thiers two different types of gallons(which confuses me anyway). many thanks ryan
