Wow! Very nice man! Looks like you have everything in order. Don't forget to use lots... LOTS of engine assembly lube on all those nifty little parts Torque specs torque wrench and more torque specs. And ya, air tools are much easier than a dremel for grinding out the plenum inlets. I used a dremel for mine and it was a pain.

If all you have to grind is the bridge for the #1 injector, the dremel cutting attachment is perfect, and takes like 10 min tops.



Air tools can take a lot away very quickly, so you have to be very careful and steady. IME, a dremel is more forgiving.

Thats no problem we have air...

Hey what did yall use for yalls intake mods, Like what attachments/bits that way i can ask my dad if we have them..

We will use air tools to pull the motor and re-install the rebuilt one.

_______________

Also here is a minor update I just finshed assembling one of my z1 chrome throttle bodies (thanks to parts car) Ill get pics of EVERYTHING friday night (Screw going out I have a Z to build)

Btw Anton im thinking about 4-5 weeks (the machine shop told me it will take them 1 week to build and P&P the head's but you know very well that 1 week may turn into 3 weeks )

Aite well I'm unavailable Oct. 20 - Oct. 24 other then that I'm pretty free so just let me know dude.

Im shooting for the middle of september to be done running 15lbs (by done I mean including the 1000 mile breakin period)!!!!!! But it all depends on the machine shop...

I feel my dad and I can build the motor 2 hours after each work day for about 7 days and be done... But IDK I have never built a motor much less built a VG so we will have to see.... How long has it taken yall to reassemble the motor???

Once the motor is reassembled then ill put the turbos, manifolds, down pipes, clutch, flywheel, intakes, injectors, fuel rail, ect all on the motor and when that is done it will be time for the install

Me and my buddy, 43 hours straight (that's no sleep) from bare block to fully assembled, everything bolted on (including clutch and FW) ready to drop in. We took a few prolonged (like 30 min) breaks but that's about it.

Hmm that doesnt sound to bad ill do that over a weeks time then finish on saturday..

Was 48 hours total from a bare block to ready to install??????

43 hours, yeah from bare wrapped in plastic from the machine shop block to fully assembled and timed, ready to install. Heads were never taken apart so unless your machine shop is assembling them you need to add some time for that.

Hell Yea that doesnt seem to bad.. The machine shop is going to reassemble them.. I cant wait!

HERE ARE THE PICS I PROMISED!


I cant wait to assemble everything!

Remember go broke or GO HOME!

First up one of the turbo's unwrapped...

JWT sport 700's






^turbo lines


^that one is my favorite pic to look at


Now we have Nismo 740cc with 300degree fuel rails





Now ramey idler studs and EGR delete plates!



Now another good one pay attention to the detail in the flywheel i love how it says Specialty Z on it.. 3 times






Now ASh spec intercooler ducts and AshSPec massives!! (im only showing one of the intercoolers left the other one wrapped up so i didnt have to rewrap it)
The intercoolers are truely massive! If you have never seen one in person they are HUGE ha





Koyo radiator FTW!



Ashspec intercooler piping 2.5inch I went with silver piping and black couplers





Its time for SELIN and the JWT pop charger's ! Dual maf translator, Selin Elbow kit, and JWT DUAL POP CHARGERS












The boxes the turbo's came in (they each had their own box)





Z1 Chrome throttle bodies (I already assembled them)




BDE motor mounts



Last but not least the chip that Specialty Z tuned for me


Im still waiting on SZ to get the 3 inch down pipes to me, Stillen oil cooler, MSP turbo manifolds..
Ill be ordering my blitz boost controller when greg calls me to say he is about to ship the parts im waiting on above

As of now im waiting on that^ and the machine shop to finsh the heads

*not pictured is the high 5 clutch*


Questions comments concerns feel free to chime in

Now THAT is how you build. Couple of notes:

- Do a wastegate balance test before installation. It's simple to do and very worthwhile.
- IMHO, get one of these bolts for the Koyo. The black plastic bleeder will break and leave you stranded. Titanium will not corrode to the AL like steel will. You could also get an AL bolt if you find it in that size.

Thanks Tony.

Edit...

I just need to find out the specs on what the bolt has to be I cant it anywhere. Ill call sz monday and find out.


Thanks for the info Tony

Oh also im thinking about gettin solid radiator pipes

By AL i think he means aluminum.

You can get an aluminum bolt for your aluminum radiator, or get the one tha the posted. The black plastic bolt on radiators could erode or wear away, leaving your motor pissing hot coolant like its got aids!

*edit* heres why you want to replace it:

The time will come soon!!

TTkickedin wrote:By AL i think he means aluminum.

Yes, AL = Aluminum. Steel and stainless are no good because of galvanic corrosion. It's not the draincock (lol...c***), it's the plastic bleeder screw opposite the filler neck. It will crack over time.

A lower hard pipe is a good move, the upper pipe is fine with silicone. Be sure your elbows are silicone for the hardpipe.

Okk I think im going to go ahead and get the hard pipe.. Cant hurt anything

Edit: Also the drain bolt (obviously)

Im going to try and run down to the machine shop tomorrow and pick up the block (if were not to busy).. They are still working on the heads..

wow man, very sweet. im going to be doing the exact same thing minus the build and the upgraded IC piping, at least to start with as soon as i muster up enough will to spend the dough. im wondering what kind of juice you are going to be putting down? im thinking 535whp at 18psi.

Sick man! Looks like almost my exact same mods haha! Excellent quality parts. You'll be happy with the outcome

some good comparisons:

http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/f ... -more.html
you have 2.5'' ic pipings and ic's, the selin pack, (3'' exhaust?), (msp manifolds?), ferrea valves 1mm+
i think 500rwhp+ is a reasonable goal

That sounds good to me ^^^... Im worrying myself about fuel pumps tho... I think before I go to get my car dyno tuned im going to need to double up.. Also pick up a new FPR

But anyway yall yeserday I didnt get a chance to run to the machine shop.. So im going to try today but as of right now were real busy (and thats a good thing!)...

if you have a tt fuel pump, you're fine.

Ok cool so yea like I said now only waiting to go and pick up my block

IDK if you mentioned this yet but with all these mods, what numbers do you expect?

Haha indeed! I have no idea on the power yet because the engine is still out. Damn body work lol.
