NXTIME Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 LOL...Drunkan..I don't think he wasnted the title as exactly "VQ35HR conversion Posibly" "VQ35HR into R32 GTR Conversion" would be more appropriate Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/355860-vq35hr-conversion/page/6/#findComment-7646228 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leroy Peterson Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 obviously you're going all out (which is great) but considering all the modifications. is going VQXXHR really worth the extra cost over going just normal DE?

T04GTR Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 when you have seen both motors apart, yes. forced induction is not really that much differance in cost once you include a new intake manifold for the de,but having said that, there is a crapload more bits "off the shelf" for the de. bearing diameters are all alot bigger. heads flow just as well as ported de heads out of the box. and the crank is much better,less harmonics and the block is alot stronger. with the nismo oil pump im using they are reliable to 8500. so nismo says. one thing that needs to made avialable is 3d printed rocker covers with a re-located oil filler cap, and replaceable spark plug tube seals. same for the de really. im also suprised that the full on drag guys still use the de as a base. (billet engine block) when the design of the hr block is way better for main bearing support. and if made billet they would be nothing stronger.

Leroy Peterson Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Interesting info. I'd heard mixed things about the HR motors and the additional complexity when going standalone ecu. Wasn't sure if it was worth the extra cost of the motor itself.

T04GTR Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 making some headway with the intake manifolds. not much room to work with, between being to tall and wide and keeping the overall volume as tight as posible has been a challenge. this version was way to big in volume. not planning on making 3000hp.. this version was all i could come up with with the available space. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/355860-vq35hr-conversion/page/6/#findComment-7659539 Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-tracid Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Nice work with the intake manifolds. Are you planing to run water to air with that setup. Regarding the exhaust manifolds; the merge collector spring retainer, will that not leak under boos boost pressure?

T04GTR Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 finished the intake manifolds apart from the balance pipe. and supports also the water to air pipes (i haven't worked out where to put it yet.) each maniflod with the intercooler is about 4L. about 1 liter larger than i hoped but what can you do... the charge pipe from the turbos will be a short 2" 90 and a 2" to 3" 90 degree reducer. the water pump for the heat exchanger is a jabsco cyclone 32gal/min.with 3/4" hose. il be using 1" hose. i chose that over a Johnson cm90 because it flows more at the same head and is more compact and cheaper 3 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/355860-vq35hr-conversion/page/6/#findComment-7660921 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sucram Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 each maniflod with the intercooler is about 4L. about 1 liter larger than i hoped but what can you do... ) How come you chose to run them straight off of your plenum instead of run the plenum size you wanted and have the heat exchanger seperate?

T04GTR Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 no room, also shortest piping possible. after some inter-netting, it seems to be the norm with inbuilt inter-coolers. if it is lazy, i can always re do it. dump pipe finished minus sensor bungs 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/355860-vq35hr-conversion/page/6/#findComment-7661752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
