why not buy a brand new OEM nissan Block and Crank? I can give you a killer deal on it, it's more than $750 but it's brand new OEM. all the GTR guys buy brand new blocks when building a motor and it's surprisingly affordable compared to buying, shipping, and tearing down a used block. plus something new you don't have to clean, deck, and so on if you are staying stock bore.

just my $0.02

I agree with you but I did get some quotes on new block they was around 1300.00 and i did not price a crank. But be4 I bought this one I was going to just build my block but then I looked around and found a used block and was like then I wouldn't have a lot of down time and as far machine work I get it for free cuz of my father. But now I should have went ahead and bought it new so screwed over. But I agree with you....

Update so as many of you know i bought a short block to build. well with all the BS i have got from doug at Z feveror Fever racing sent me a rusty POS. After that he said he sent me the wrong one when i said i wanted my money back. So he sent me another and said it would be here Monday which is today....so i took off work again for the 4th time. (im in the Army this aint easy) I watched the fedex guy go past my house, i sent him a text. he said fedex had issues with planes not flying this weekend...(he is in tampa and i'm in southern georgia) so i finally get a tracking number and look at it and it says it was picked up today at 1038am....what do i do? i want to hurt this man. this is pissed me off so dam bad i almost sold my car...lol..that well never happen...but i text him and say dude wtf he said the system must be missed up...I dont know what to do about this orther then let forum know about it...

You have access to some sort of plane right??? Fly down there and kick his *** and take your money. That's not how you do business and I would be beyond furious.

Sent the wrong one?..lol. what kind of $hit wad is that....

Hey man, at least your not in this alone. I have been trying to get my built motor back/done since the end of june! My car is just sitting outside by a shop rusting away.

I'm artillery so I don't fly but I could air assault...lol..

I feel you I hate dealing with people/company's that can't get there **** right..ever since I've been back from my deployments it makes me mad when people **** up at there job...you should see me at buyer king...but I expect a product in a timely manner. :stirthepot:

And on top of all the bs with the bare block...I have to start the twin mid mount in the next two weeks.... time to start stressing. ..lol

yall need to contact george and nick at soho motorsports. them guys will build your **** right and theyre stand up guys so you can expect zero ******** from them. Nicks tuning is also very legit

I'm going to be doing the build I'm just going to be sending it off to get the machine work done...but ill hit them up to see if they can help out

Good news
1. new bare block came in from old Z fever nd it's a good block. so the build can continue.
2. I honed the first block and it cleaned up great and still is within factory specs

Now i know the first block is a 2013 370z block and with less then 20k miles off of the serial number. the second one didn't come with the serial so idk nothing about it...which block should i chose...hmmmmm

whichever one has a better crank? could always have one x rayed and if it has any flaws go with the other as well.

man i got 3 cranks all good 2...lol..

wait. how do you have 2 blocks now lol i thought you only got one from z fever. also thats awesome that he did you right finally

Nice thread BBR. Very impressive stuff going on. Glad you got the spare block situation figured out. Any vidz of the 1g Talon? My first car was a 95 GSX. Got a soft spot for DSMs.

Thansk...I sold the 1g I got a 2g now fully built AWD swap when I get home I see what I have for pics and post them
