Twin turbo Nitrous 300zx nearing completion
This engine swap was so ------- difficult, the car is hard as ---- to work on, the trans was a bitch muscling it on there, but in the end it will all be worth it. Not sure if we'll run nitrous on the JDM engine as i dont want to break it and I dont want to have to replace it again.

Re: Twin turbo Nitrous 300zx nearing completion
i sold the Z to my friend, which required me to do all the work on it 
. but its still my car, i will drive it when i want to. etc etc. he paid for everything and i will make him pay me for doing this bitch of a swap. it was good for experience because i had never swapped a transverse engine before, pulled a few but never dropped one in. which will help with my next project. the mods are as follows
single pop intake
unorthodox lightened pulley
no ac, no powersteering, no crank driven fan. ---- parasitic drag
PWR 3 inch core radiator.
lightened fly from lsd
xtd 6 puck clutch
apexi avcr
apexi safc
Custom tuned ecu by my via Zcontrol
NX nitrous kit with 80 shot dry jet
re routed coolant lines
2.4 in downpipes
2.4 in test pipes
greddy unresonated H pipe
HKS canisters
Nitto 555r tires
short shifter from ebay
blah blah blah blah blah
so much ---- has been replaced on this car, it should last a while, it may need new bushings in the near future but the rest of the drivetrain should hold up.
still on stock internals, but stock internals are capable till ~700hp if its tuned correctly. still on stock injectors, turbos, intercoolers, and stock 3.69 rear diff gears. if funds allow it will have nismo 555cc injectors ($1000), intercoolers ($500), and 4.10 leader rear diff gears ($710)
as the car sits it should do 12's easily. but thats not very quick.

Re: Twin turbo Nitrous 300zx nearing completion
why would you want to waste money on that big heavy piece of ---- nissian, so basically with all the work youve done you could just have bought a stock turbo one
your car is a pile of ---- about like you and your life, waste of time and money... cootsi ftw :1
