Plan is to get 500rwhp hopefully that should be enough HP hehehe!!!!!!!

Also After researching last night i found a few Zed's running 10" wide front rims so today i got my Gram Lights 57F Pro's of my R33 GTR and they fit awesome even with the 275's up front they don't even rub. The photo's don't do it any justice but they do look awesome i might re-paint them a different colour to match the car better maybe black instead of gold. I ordered some new BC coilover's for it today (shouted my self a Xmas present) so i can slam it lower and adjust the camber's to make it look good.

Lol after starting at the start of this thread I straight away thought once you mentioned 220-240kw It wasnt going to stay N/a for long...

Nice Z dude, lookes awesome.

Edited by EAT26

Lol... yeah, didn't think you'd be long in NA land.

Turbo ftw. My kit is still not in my car. rolleyes.gif

Looks like a good project. Are you going to do the motor / turbo kit all at once, or put the kit on and run it with the stock internals for a while?

Yeah i'll probably save up and do it all in one hit, i don't want this car to be off the road for to long was considering buying a 2nd hand VQ35 and stripping it, build it then pop it straight in, then sell the other one see how i go.

My New BC Coilover's BR Type from Just Jap rocked up this week, will probably put them on tomorrow. Looks like a pretty good kit, i have always been a Tein man but this car will never see a track in its life so i thought i would give these a test run, pretty good quality for the price just by looking at them.

Its a good idea, if your able too. There are plenty of V35's wrecking around Australia. Should be able to get the motor at a reasonable price. Then the machine shop / motor builder gets to spend some time doing it right. Always a bonus.

Plus it will save some pain as you can put on the manifolds/some other parts while the motor is out- much easier that way. The major pain I think is the manifold and the exhaust that crosses over the bellhousing.

I got a car hoist in the shed so its easy for me, just gotta make a jig up like the one i got for the GTR takes me 2-3hrs to to remove engine, gearbox etc. Engine was gonna come out anyways so i can remove all the puss off the engine + i will be using AN fittings and braided hoses for everything, got so much left over from the R32. But yeah if i can get a 2nd engine will give me time to refine the engine and make it all pretty.

New BC Coilover's are in, was a Little bit disappointed with how low you can go, i have the back fully lowered as much as it can go, i wanted just a tad more lower but that's all she's got to give. Haven't had much of a chance to to test them yet but first impression seems to be good. One thing i can say is changing out suspension in a 350Z is far more a pain in the arse compared to a GTR. It was nearly more unbearable than doing JZA80 suspension... and that for me is the pinnacle of f*#ked. Anyways have been Ebaying and i am thinking about getting a carbon front lip Veilside V1 style for the Z, maybe another Xmas pressiethumbsup.gif

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
