teehee

I guess i could of said what turbos im putting on...

I bought a set of JDMs with around 50k on them, shaft play is great, cant wait to get them on!

I thought you were planning on building up a Z?

 

[inNeedIndeed]

well, since 7k is crazy for a rebuild, i decided just to run with JDMs.. Ive seen dynos of z with 350hp to the wheel on stock turbos so why spend 7k to change it?

i mean i could have bought mine, then paid 7k for the rebuild and have your setup but why would i want to have a car like someone elses?

 

[StatixNWH]

I was just curious...goodluck on the swap! lookin good

Watching this one

im looking at engine mounts, any opinions on solid alumn. mounts?

I guess to start everything the engine did i would feel, but other then that??

thanks.

 

[300zxtt13]

good luck. I did my engine swap myself. if you have any questions let me know. I would just go with oem motor mounts they are pretty strong but if not dont get ebay ones

 

[inNeedIndeed]

know of a place who has a good price on them?

 

[300zxtt13]

you could try the classifieds on 300zxclub.com, Z1 motorsports, or if someone has good oem ones on ebay just dont get the solid ones from them i have heard bad things

 

[inNeedIndeed]

ahh ok thanks, anything you know of i can eliminate when putting back, like some vaccum hoses or something?

Hell yea man... Lookin good so far... Throw some sport 500's in there.... that will be cheaper than the 7k rebuild and im sure it will set you higher than 350 horses... i need to stop partyin so much and go over there one weekend when you guys are workin on it
