Here is my 1987 300zx turbo that I am currently building. The body is fully stitch welded. The motor in there is just the old beat down one for fitting my top mount manifold that I am making. Should be pimp. If you have 300zx parts let me know. I might need them.You can send any donations or emails my way through jason_in_canada@hotmail.com. I will write you some sort of reciept and you could try and write it off to the government. Whatever I’ll post more pics the project progress’ along.
Yeah it is from a 93 pathfinder. I hope to run 11’s with this setup. Going to autodream tomorrow to do some tig welding. GOing to cut out the side of the manifold where the pcv and coolant stuff is and tig an aluminum plate in there.
Silly question. You say that its a ct26 turbo, which is the same as the sw20 mr2 turbo. But isnt that a bit small for your engine? It doesnt look that small in the pics tho… :?: Also, are you keeping the power steering (assumng this is to be a track car)?
Isn’t the CT-26 a little small for this car though? It should be great for initial spool, but it can’t be any better than the stock T3 on the top end? :?
Well thanks for the feedback. The turbo is the ct-26 from a mkiii supra with an upgraded blitz compressor which has a 62mm compressor wheel. and differnet exhaust turbine. It is supposed to be good for 450hp. I will tryit this summer and if it isn’t big enough I will go with a big HKS turbo. Yeah when I think of something I need I’ll pm you guys. As for the intrax springs. I am using them simply because I got them for free and can’t justify not using them. They actually feel great and have a nice ride hieght.
The stitch welding will make it just that much stiffer, unibody cars are put together with spot welds that after 20 years of regular and hard driving have cracked and are weak. This just takes care of that and makes it a bunch cooler IMO.
Looking good Jason, looks like you’ll finally be able to gun me down, haha. BTW, are u interested in the work wheels at all?? 500 bones and their yours.
I never said that…i know him and robb…my car is a 14.3, i dont think its fast at all, i was dissapointed with that run although i did have a 2.3 second 60 foot time due to tires…Me and jason raced last year and i thought he was gonna beat me when he put his new clutch in but he didnt quite…so now he’ll ruin me. Same thing with robb and his sr20 silvia, it wasnt as fast as my car…but his ca18 silvia will beat me now. The other thing is that my motor is quite stock, which it wont be this spring so whatever…have fun with your CA, I dont see why you have to be such a cunt, i wasnt even talking to you in the first place.
Yeah I didn’t think any thing of his comment. Chris your car is pretty quick. Don’t even worry about it guys. I got what he was saying and don’t think it was stupid. Anyways yeah we’ll have to go at it again this summer.
