87Kevin Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 I thought i'd share - these are some pics of my sr20/z31 concotion. Engine management is sds em4f. Block is bored with forged weisco pistons, o-ringed with copper head gasket. Otherwise stock engine. Manifold is JGS custom log-style, turbo is t3/t04e 60mm. Havent dynoed yet, but my best at the track so far is 13.1@108, also for mph I pulled a 13.5@112. These all with 2.2 or worse 60 foots, pump gas, street tires and 16# of boost. http://www.user.dccnet.com/jfast/300-1.jpg http://www.user.dccnet.com/jfast/300-2.jpg http://www.user.dccnet.com/jfast/300-3.jpg http://www.user.dccnet.com/jfast/300-4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruxGNZ Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Welcome! Nice clean install . I love the color! !M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Want aZ Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Definately Nice, and I agree with the color, I really dont know why this engine doesnt get more installs as the Z is a light starting point. and these engines can really be made to crank out some HP. and with the import scene being what it is there is a ton of stuff out there to hop them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop N Wood Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Definately Nice, and I agree with the color, I really dont know why this engine doesnt get more installs as the Z is a light starting point. and these engines can really be made to crank out some HP. and with the import scene being what it is there is a ton of stuff out there to hop them up Agreed, very nice install and a good engine. But the reason I would think twice is cost. Z's are blessed with an engine compartment that allows a wide variety of options, most of which would return more HP for less $$. But not to take away from the car. Beautiful work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David K Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Wow guys, 13.1@108 in the Z31. Imagine that in a 240z, what ive been saying all along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Kevin Posted July 4, 2003 Author Share Posted July 4, 2003 wow... first time i've posted this and not gotten flamed for swapping out the v6 for a little 4-banger. I like this board already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 thats what HybridZ.org is all about. What is your next move with your car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Kevin Posted July 4, 2003 Author Share Posted July 4, 2003 big IC that doesnt leak, lighter seats (driver's seat weighs over 100lbs) and a posi rear end with better gears...maybe you guys can help me out with this. I love nissan for their parts interchangability, and I know almost every rear-drive nissan has the r200 diff, so I want to replace my 3.7:1 open with something like the 4.08:1 lsd from a 240sx, but dont know if the side gears are the same. Are there any other possible options?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Kevin, was yours the car I saw at Blackhawk?? If it was, it was sweeeeet! Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Other options for diffs are probably the same as the early Z. 88 300zx SE has the clutch LSD, and later turbo cars have the viscous. I'd check out the viscous swap first as they are more plentiful in the junk yards, and a better setup if you can get them in easily. (the clutch ones happen to install in the early Z much easier, so they are used a lot in the S30's) Check out the drivetrain forum for more info...
