Surprise!

I decided I wanted to put the H/C/I LS1 in while i had time/ space.



took all of 90 minutes to get here, just need my cherry picker back... loaned it to a friend doing a turbo 5.3 lsx swap.

 

Looks sick man.. any updates since the new setup went in?

 

Awesome build, i have always admired these Z's

 

Goota love them Datsuns

 

Sorry I've been MIA lately. Been pretty consumed with moving for my new job.

Here's a quick vid of the new setup.

This was a 20 punch to about 135. Closed roads of course.

 

Nice! How much faster does it feel now?

 

Much. Its roughly 450-460 rwhp by our guesses.... Car weighs ~2660.... you do the math! haha

 

I probably missed it, but what cam and heads are in it? Sounds badass and looks like a ton of fun!

 

So what did you do about the diff ?

 

Yeah, I kinda forgot to post that on this board

Stock cube LS1 - ~11.4:1 compression
AFR 205's - milled to 62cc
Cometic .040 MLS gaskets
Vengeance Racing VRX4 (228/230 .588/.592 on a 112LSA )
FAST 90 / Nick williams 92
and all the other goodies that go with it


Its the stock welded R200, with Z31T cv axles

 

I didn't realize it until today but you just sold me the stock engine mount I need for my LS build on Hybridz. I caught you vid on there ! Your car is Sick !!! SO when are you going to throw a turbo on it ? J/K !!!!

 

Are you running a Fast Intake or LS6?

 

Ported Fast 90

 

lol cool man. Its hard to keep track between the boards sometimes. Haha idk about the turbo situation.... maybe nitrous?

 

Got a few good races in tonight. I beat a 540rwhp c5 Z06 by a couple cars on a 30-140. Hopefully I'll get my buddy to edit the video and put it up soon.

 

nissans and v8's seem to go together like sex and kool-aid.

 

What mufflers are you running? Car has a real nasty sound

 

Magnaflow bullets

 

Well I have some news. Not sure if its good or bad.

I took apart my cv axles to replace the boots and found this:



Both ends....



This was the passenger side. 275 street tires, on the street.....

This is a custom axle from a z-car vendor. Its 1.3" in diameter, so just a shade bigger than a ford 9" 28 spline.

ALSO, the driver's side axle (stock Z31T) was completely fine. Splines had NO issues on either end......

On the next "unbreakable" solution i guess. It raises some concern as this was ONLY street tires, on the street.

 

Jmortesen on Hybridz sells a pair of shortened axles for $575. Which vendor did that one come from ?
