Because they are waaaaay to big.



You won't get any shit from me about ls1 in a skyrine Nick. Living it Gayton tho, that's another story.



A mate had a NA zed, spent many, many thousands doing a vh45 conversion (and 2 years). Sounded awesome but was still slow. So he pulled that out and went vgTT. Cheaper and faster.



Since parted it out and is now talking m3CSL or lotus

That actually makes sense, but why not a more modern Nissan v8 engine?

They don't lope around like cammed up LS's do.

And the other reason was I just simply didn't want one, I don't know anything about the motors whereas info on ls building is plenty full and parts are cheap.

And to me nothing sounds better than a big cube natro v8 screaming up near the redline or shaking around at idle :jizz:

Haha aww but mike it's no fun unless it annoys people lol.

And that's the other thing the quad cams are massive same as with the 5.4 boss motors in falcoons

What about cost and time taken to make swap though?

Yep same idea as old bud that did the 1uz swap into a supra. He came to a happy laps with us once and the thing sounded sooo tuff like an f1 v8 mix. So I was naturally a little hesitant of lining him up, but when play time was over and I got a run down the straight with him I had about 3 1/2 car lengths over the start finish line and mines dead stock apart from the exhaust and the built box

Up near redline at 4500rpm lol

Yeah mates vh45 had extractors (custom so they fit lol) and exhaust and nistune and it would've had about 200rwkw.

Took about 6 months start to finish which I didn't mind cause I was on my ps still anyway and I'd just blown up my gearbox so the car was just sitting there.

Cost wise, it's only money... And the attention it gets and the "WTF is in that thing" reaction when people hear it fire up is just priceless.

Yer mines just got a custom extractors a crappy mail mafless order tune and basically a 3inch straight pipe and a dirty pod filter sucking like a 2 dollar whore off the intake pipe lol. Through my auto with the bigger stall I'd imagine id only have about 200rwkw....

For now

You still running stock cams Nick?

A friend of friend had massive cams in his. Was so bad that in top gear on highway at 110 he got chopped by a stock telstar lol

Top gear roll ons of course ;)

Yer stock everything man, the motor in this trims days are numbered ;)

It's to fast to only have 180, I was chopping cars up around the 230-240kwkw mark at the drags

youve lost a lot of weight in that engine. plus you have more torque, that engine will be running like shit with a mail order tune and your bolt ons.... i have the hsv ls1, standard cats tho, with otr and full tune and that only cranks 230 atw.... manual.

alright maybe you have 190....

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
