Need High HP N/A 300zx

[yeaiwonder88]

Yea i Was just wondering what all i could do to get my na 300zx to around 270hp

[Vteckidd]

ALOT OF WORK.

honestly, if they share the same block casting and characteristics of a TT Z, then i would prob bet the cost of getting a NA to make that would be arond the same as boosting it.

i think NA Zs make around 200whp maybe? your looking at 70-80whp, thats alot of work.

no sense in trying to reinvent the wheel, but im a honda guy

222 flyhwheel so around 185-190 area. actually 270hp to the fly isnt hard. to the wheels wil require some dollars. a visit to www.300zxclub.com can help. as they have a complete stage list for the tt and n/a. and z1motorsports.com can help u with that. give em a call. they r located in villa rica. or PM fawk_you and she can get u in touch.

found it for ya:
Stage 1, Pop Charger/UD pulley
Stage 2, ECU (SGP)
Stage 3, Exhaust (ALC for auto's)
Stage 4, Headers
Stage 5, TB's w/ matched intake
Stage 6, Fuel Injectors/JWT NOS system
Stage 7, SGP Head package w/ 5 angle valve job
More mod's exist of course, but here SGP puts the N/A at 420 w/ NOS...
since they're including NOS...I would imagine thats about 340 at the flywheel.

What does everyone else think? Sound too optimistic?
They do have a customer who has a convertible N/A run a 12.97 1/4 at full weight w/ auto.

I personally would like to see about 220 rwhp + 75 shot NOS, before I go turbo...that would be a nice progression!
IMO save up 6k and swap in a dett. u do have a z32 right?

Why might I ask? Getting an extra 50hp out of the vg30det seems to be kinda pointless...headers, exhaust, intake manifold & head work, etc. and you're probably looking at a few grand...or put that money to better tires and maybe a new rear end, cf driveshaft, lightened flywheel, etc. and you'll be just as fast.

OR just contact Russel at Z1 (http://www.300zx.com) and see what a VG30DETT swap will run.

another good source for info is http://www.twinturbo.net

the swap is roughly 6k. i believe the z1 site has a FAQ guide for the swap. but i agree, extra hp out of a de is waste of money.

[sebastianHoff]

are you tryin to build an n/a or do you own an n/a and think it cost too much to turbo it? nadauto has a pair of fairlady front cuts for less than $2500 a piece.

[yeaiwonder88]

Yea is the front clip in stock right now

you can but a throttle body from a ka24e motor (88-91 nissan 240sx) which will add hp and get headers and i think put on an intake from a ka24e. but the throttle body will definatly work beacuse it is almost 1cm more in diameter compared to the stock 300zx throttle body.

Bumping a 2 yr old thread??? Bad idea.:ninja:

[santacruz77]

no its a good one. cause now i - repped him to lol

[AnthonyF]

nitrous. you'll hit 270 at least once. and when is 270 HIGH hp for a 300zx?

[khailon]

sounds lik high hp to me

Why would you do that when you could "but" a Q45 throttle body?

PS, good job bumping an old thread:umno:

Dude the kid makes BS post all the damn time. Just look at his thread about how his engine locked up.

For those of you asking, I just did a bunch of research. the ballpark figure to get a 5spd N/A to a 5spd TT, tuned and doing a little better than factory TT is around $9000 drive out (by Z1 motorsports, but i wouldnt take mine to anyone else anyway) As far as the block goes, everything is ALMOST the same, theres a couple different things going on in the block as far as pistons, cams, oil squirter positions.

They charge an arm and a leg though. Z1 is nice but expensive. They also do swaps everyday so I mean you get what you pay for. As for how much a swap can cost I can get a tt 300zx right now for 3K but it has an engine knock. Now as I see it you buy that car take the engine out and rebuild it and you have roughly $4500 invested. Ok well put the tt in my Z and ut my NA in the shell of the other car. Then sell the NA car for $4500 (which is resonable) and there ta go. Close to free TT for my Z. I just dont have the time for that kind of thing nor do I have funds. It would work though. Might end up spending a few grand out of pocket for tuning and parts. But in the long run you have a tt engine with 0 miles on it for the low low. Also a few grand is always better than 9K.
