Guest ON3GO Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Hey guys, did a few searchs and got some helps there but i had a few things on my mind. Im putting in a 82 L28ET motor. putting in a new headgasket, oil pan gasket, valve cover gasket, Blitz Super Sound Bov, Stock T3 (maybe a modded T3 i dunno), Conquest FMIC, 60mm t-body, custom fuel rail with 280zx turbo injectors, porting the head and polishing it, electric fans, new bearings, and keeping the 280Z harness for timing and etc. should i port and shave the intake manifold or make my own? time i dont care about, i have plenty of it, and all the tools to make one if needed. would it make much of a difference? should i also make my own header? or would it not make much of a difference on a pretty much stock motor. 2.5inch or 3inch downpipe? does it make much of a difference? should i add a cutout or no? this is pretty much a junkyard low budget setup, gonna run about 10psi to 12psi and thats it. enough for 230rwhp i hope. what other parts should i put on or make so this will be very reliable. i already have a ghetto 2.5inch exhaust with no cat. i already have a boost gauge and will be making my own boost controller. so any ideas? thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZ-E Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 but stay away from the starion ic, you would be better off without it. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 there will be many videos to come from the Hulk.. this blue Z will be fun though. 12psi on all ghetto or hand man parts.. or stock lol. so 2 L28ET Z's for me! mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80LS1T Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 You mike, the "HULK" is really going to have to perform pretty darn good with all this extra "hype" being built up from you not driving it and everyone wanting to see it on the road!

Guest ON3GO Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 lol the funny thing theres alot more badass Z's on this site then the Hulk.. its a stock internal L28ET with a standalone and a upgraded turbo... thats all. nothing really great. theres a few ppl that have my wheels on this site, i have coilovers just like everybody else, i do not have the coolest or biggest fmic, nor do i have an rare or custom stuff really. stock paint from 1976, needs body work, and i swear you dont wanna sit inside it... SMELLS BIG TIME. all in all this new 280Z i got is a nicer car, pretty much stock but in better shape. now dont get me wrong the green Z will be fast, and one day will be one of the most badass Z's (ill try my hardest, and if i have my way which i dont the car will be very different then how it is now). i think all the hype thats around the car is because im a young guy, 20, and the car never has been driven sence i owned it lol. ah oh well, one day ill drive it. on a good note i should have this L28ET swap done soon to this blue Z.. got most the parts ordered or have them and got a few problems fixed too. so i hope to have it done very very soon. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 I think Mike is lonely for a Z up on jackstands. Kind of like a sailor and his girsl - he wants a Z on jackstands in every port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
