Still have the broken Z. With the motor ticking, clutch sticking (assuming master cylinder), and the steering lock (my light was on 3 days this week), I'm ready for something new. I just bought a daily today...so now I can really start looking Now I live through you

Damn man, no luck at all. My steering lock acted up on me once, I punched it and it hasn't messed w/ me since! I won't let you down..... new turbo manifold design coming soon, I'm going to run dual wastegate setup, smaller diameter piping, maybe a diff turbo size.....I'm going to try and build the bottom end before years end as well! Keep us posted on what you get into!

Smaller piping...quicker spool...less top end. Are you really looking into tracking the car? It sounds like it.

I'm not going anywhere. I like this forum too much to leave even if I do get rid of the 40th. I'd honestly build the motor and enjoy the car if I hadn't dropped so much money into the car to only get more problems thrown at me.

Yea, I'd like to get a little quicker spool w/o sacrificing top end power. Find that perfect median Probably going to re-route the piping, each bank will have it's own wastegate collecting @ the divided flange on the turbo. No more piping going over the transmission, most likely. Very similar to JTrans 350 low mount builds. The Turbo I'm currently using is rated to 720hp but after I build the motor I'll probably replace it. Shoot for 600-650 reliable whp on our Dyno, which is an *** ton of power. Getting this clutch in, engine mounts, larger boost pipe and 3'inch intake runners is the weeks goal. However, knowing Johnny he will probably just want to refab the turbo manifold while the cars taken apart..... I won't stop him

I'm guessing Nissan isn't replacing your motor? I hit 12.4 psi on Meth. My motor still pulls -13 (give or take) vacuum, no ticking! I'll probably do a compression check soon as well.
