good work kev, did you here about the guy you got that motor off of? like the week after i met you that saturday he blew tha motor in his Z.. if you need any help just hit me up on aim.

[SHIFT_Z]

Yeah his name is Chris. Hes a good guy, he just doesn't know when to quit with the boost.

P.S. thanks to Racin da 240 for hosting my pics.

PS.PSI did the custom paint work on my tail lights. Normally they would be red all the way across, but I didn't like it so I changed it. hehe

Nice! One of my friends has a '84 turbo 300z and he usually runs 15psi on it when he feels like having some fun...i don't see how it hasn't died yet, it has over 180k miles on it and he says it still runs really strong.

Very nice touch, something most wouldn't notice enough to appreciate the hard work you put in that "extra" touch. Nice clean car.

SWEET! Man that is one sweet Z.How do you think it will take to finish?

[SHIFT_Z]

How long?* Um.. my options were toA) Use the 86 block(200k+ miles) and rebuild that motororB) Turbo my 88 N/a motor (85k original miles)

I chose to turbo my N/A, because I can run stock boost and not worry about compression issues. So I will be turbo until I can get the low compression pistons in, in which I will probably end up taking them off of the 86 and swapping.ETA=If I were to rebuild the 86- 1 yearTurboing my N/A - 6 months tops.(being that I still need a downpipe, and an 86 computer since I will be using an 86 turbocharger / injectors)

6 months sounds good! Are you planning on coming to the Sept 6th meet?

Ha ha kevin it wasn't the boost that killed me, that engine went do to my failure in learning how to really cool a car down. So I spent over a grand on my radiator and fans. My new engien how ever went because Nissan is cheap as hell and has no idea how to make good pistons. That's a problem I am solving as we speak. The new engine's problem was I was running to rich at the wrong times and to lean when I needed to be a little rich. That is why I just forked out for a greddy e manage. I am still looking for a turbo ECU but I know you don't need one. You have to be like me and pioneer your way through modding our crap cars.

[SHIFT_Z]

LOL. Good to see you on the boards, Chris. Yeah, hopefully I won't find my pistons sticking out of my hood any time soon...
