hey guys i knows it's not 300zx but it is vg30dett i've finally got the new build finished and after all the gremils got it running. cant wait to crank some big boost into and get it out for a run!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gu6rCaKXJxg
i couldnt hear anything at the beggining so i cranked up the volume, was listening to Echo beach, then she fired up REally nice job, that thing is epic!
I have only changed a couple things had the heads ported and now using ferrea vavlve train. we have run it in now and set a nice low rev limiter of 4000rpm seeing my right foot is lead filled lol and we did make 98kw on 0 psi at 3100 rpm lol.
yes we welded that little bugger on!!! we think we found out why the last engine let go also and it wasnt from the counterweight or the gudeon pins!!! we had problems timing the engine you would set it and then crank away and next thing you know the ecu was saying it was 130 degrees out!!! turns out that the half moon that is pressed into the cam for the cas was loose and as you would crank it would move and change the timing.....so when last engine went looks like maybe at full noise it went 180 or something out and killed it or atleast contributed to kiling it
The CAS is linked to the cam by the spline, the half moon just help you get them in the correct orientation initially.
New Power figures Hey guys though id just share some final success with the VG build. We ended up changing turbos AGAIN we went back to a GT3076 on the advise of doug from z fever in the USA and it's a completely different car now and finally making some good figures. We still have some finer tuning to do and we are going to start playing with the gas the week, but on sunday it made 593.4kw it makes all the long nights and nightmare worth it now!!!
Wow?? Would love to see some piks of the motor and dyno printout!! That is impressive!! What sort of work has gone into this? What gearbox and diff?
CRIKEY!!! That's ~930hp for the ol skewllers. lol. That's monster power indeed! Well done, your efforts are really paying off for you. 3rded on seeing a dyno curve too.
Dude, saw that run. So god damn stoked!! I was cheering from behind all the VL bums and skyline fanboys <EDIT> Just gotta add that it sounded FSCKING amazing
