Z31 Introduction

[Grr]

holy shit that things gonna be on the ground

[z31]

No, just an inch.

Here is a picture of me standing on the stock spring. Standing on the stock spring brings the spring down to the same height as the ZR Race coil spring. I can bounce on the stock spring, but standing on the ZR Race coil's ,they wont move or bounce. :icon_bigsmurf:

I finished painting the block tonight. :icon_bigsmurf:

Yes, two valves per cylinder. Can get some good flow out of them tho. This is a Dyno graph of Electramotive's VG30 (180Cubic inch) Nissan V6 engine

965RWHP 760RWTQ :icon_cheers:

I'm not going to claim any numbers without a Dyno sheet, but a friend of mine has a very similar setup that put down 453RWHP 487RWTQ on a 7.8:1 stock bottom end motor on 93 oct pump gas. I have quit of bit of work to do before i start thinking about that. Will be working on Air conditioning, cruise control and driveability first. Then tuning and stuff. :icon_bigsmurf:

[z31]

I got a little more done on my motor.:icon_cheers:

[zbrown]

mmm looks nice, what did you do for the ceramic this time?

[Cobra Rob]

nice and totally different

[Chance91]

I like it man. Any bracing for those turbos or just the piping? Just curious. Better add a flex in the exhaust broken mani's suck.

That thing will be an absolute blast to drive no matter what power it makes. Dyno queens = who cares.

I don't need any bracing, and it's single turbo setup. I wont be adding any flex pipe. :icon_bigsmurf:
