i know this is hmt but nismos are the only injectors offered, unless i could fab another rail to fit, which would be hard as ----. there are venom injectors, but ive tried those and that lead to the dying of the last engine. still running stock turbos, theyre good for 400hp. the reason i didnt upgrade turbos is because inorder to HMT it, you have to be a pretty good fabricator and i dont feel like pulling and dropping the engine to test fit it every time. the upgraded turbos are 2k. when you want more than ~500hp you need 740cc injectors, which only fit the 94+ lower plenum, so you have to swap out the lower plenum for a machined 90-94 plenum. which entails another engine pull, more money. etc etc. its a pain in the *** car. im glad its not mine. right now the heatercore is leaking and i have a small oil leak from somewhere, so im going to loop the heatercore hoses ( left them long just incase this happened) and figure out where the oil leak from, i sure ------ hope its not from the turbos or im looking at another engine pull

Re: Twin turbo Nitrous 300zx nearing completion

nah, this technically isnt my car anymore, i sold it to my friend i've known for 12 years, so i did allthe work and ----. he doesnt know hes going to pay me yet

. he can do what he wants with it, i doubt he'll do anything beyond it, the car is already too fast for him to handle, this is the first quick car hes had, and if the *** dyno is correct it is around 350 hp. Which may not seem like alot, but for your first fast car its a bit too much. If he listens to me and builds it like i tell him it may put down around 400 hp and run low 12s maybe high 11's with me driving

. 4.10 gears and 555cc injectors with intercoolers running 17psi FTW. dont need to make alot of power to go fast, just have good gearing and decent power. I'm saving my money for project FD.
