DISCLAIMER: I take no responsibility in any damage/harm/death/missing limbs that may result from following the above advice.

Things have been going slow and it does not look like alot has changed but that is because most of the work I have done recently is all the small stuff mainly to do with the intakes (IAC, PVC, Coolant lines etc...). All that stuff has been more difficult then I ever imagined it would be. I am trying to keep a clean cimetrical look and i makes things difficult....I don't want to just throw a bunch of hoses all over the place.

I have welded the stock IAC (cut off of the Q intake) to the back of the right bank intake runner and have used a Y hose to go to each runner and I have used 2 bolt on bungs taken from PS pumps the feed into the runners.

Then I took the PVC "T" found behind the coolant filler on a stock VH and welded it to the back of the thermistat houseing under the intakes.

I also moved a coolant temp sensor from the top of the coolant "Y" in the valley to the back side (this will be the one I use for the ECU and the one at the front will be removed). Does anyone know why there are 2of the same sensors? Is there only 2 on the TCS models?

I have also removed the coolant filler and rad cap then welded the hole shut and clocked it to come out under the throttle body.

Now I am going to finish the IC pipeing and start on the clean up. I still need to get 2 waste gates, 2 BOV's (HKS SSQV's) the rad and a clutch. Then I need to get the body blasted and painted.
I could have the car done by the end of the month if I had all the funds but my budget is gone so it will take some more time unless I find a sposor to help out.......anyone know of any sponsors?...lol

Ok I will shut up now and post the pic's

fornt view

All the pipe is aluminized exhaust pipe and I know I am adding more wieght then I want to but this is all I can aford right now and I can always copy them out of aluminum later once the car has proven itself. The BOV's are the 2007 model HKS SSQV. I guess tats all for now. I should get lots of work done this week so I will add more pics soon

Thanks Chris

GOOD JOB

Thanks for the coment though guys. I just added the flex pipes to the down pipes and am about to start the side exits and cross over. Will have more pics soon.

It has been a while since i updated this thread last. I was realy busy over the holidays so not much has been done. I have the left bank turbo manifold almost finished. This is a bad pic but you will get the idea. I will post more soon.

Now accepting funds and parts for the VQ35 swap

I have not had time to work on my project since I moved shop. It has been an amazingly busy summer with all the drift events and track days and moving in with my girlfriend etc.. I got third place in the CSCS championship points serries.

But drift season is over so expect to see some more progress soon. I need this car done for next season as I plan to enter a pro drift series next year.

Anyone want to sponsor me?

If you want to see some videos of me drifting just search S1DC on youtube or google video, I am in the white s13with the big S1DC on the side.

I have started cleaning the engine up and polishing a few things. I am not going to go to crazy with the polishing but I want it to look good.

can you provide me a list of what you did and how much? Ballpark i mean

like for mounts and umm yea, myself and florida240sx would like to do the same with the vh45de into the s13 ThX

Just busting your chops. You will have many many hours in just polishing the heads and timing cover.

This is definitely a great project. and I applaud your effort. You need to mount those blow-off valves so they stick out of the hood, they are so pretty!

I have finaly found a suitable rad and I will be ordering it today which means I am 1 step closer to starting this baby in the car.
I still need a good clutch and wastegates.

I am hopeing to have all the engine work done by the end of this year.

Engine $650CAD
Z32tt Tranny $250 CAD (with starter and flywheel, everything is from japan)
Tranny adapter $1063.00CAD (wow)
Griffin Scciroco Rad $200USD shipped
Custom 1 piece Drive shaft $550CAD Shipped
most all other thing i got for free or dirt cheap like the 42mm elbows for the exhaust mani's. That size pipe is not comonly used in Canada and proply never used in the US but I am in the pipe fitting / pipe welding heating buisness so I happen to find the last 10 know elbows in the country and got them for free.

I hope this helps. Not sure what else to tell you but if you have anymore questions feel free to ask.

Eh, I just searched your name and didn't find anything

Eh, I forgot to ask, how much was your front mounted intercooler

*subscribed*

Updates please

and thats OOF!

cant wait to see it finished!

So thats what I have been doing. This week alone I have modified and bunged the oil pan, built the shifter linkage and bracket, finished welding up the engine mounts, built the altinator bracket, made the rad hoses and started on the rad/fan shroud.

The engine could be ready to start theis weekend but i am waiting for the waste gates to come in. ok well on to a few pics ....more to come soon.

btw. Did you make your own rotisserie? What are the dimensions and stuff?

As for the sechs we can work something out. I'm thinking that we can order some asian hookers a few times a week, maybe even import some jdm teens and lock them in the closet. I'll make you a happy man!
