It was my grandmas old car her husband bought her new. She rarely drove it. it has a anniversary badge on it, could of sworn it said 50, but who knows; i'll have to take a look at it later this week. It does have both nissan and datsun symbols on the car and badged as a maxima. It drives good, but it smokes alot(valve seals prolly) and is low on power you can feel it. I use to drive her to the store in it all the time when i went to visit. Everything still works including the lady voice that reminds you all the simple stuff you forget, lol. KEY IS IN THE IGNITION....KEY IS IN THE IGNITION....KEY IS IN THE IGNITION.... RIGHT DOOR IS OPEN ughhh. power moonroof still works with no leaks. It's pretty mint for the year. only bad spot is where she backed into her carport once is messed the side trim abit, lol. I would just put another motor in i got have laying around, but I like the idea of matching numbers on old cars like this, so trying to do something with instead of the simple way out.
This will be a turbo build... i thought it was kind of clear with the lower compression, stud, hg, etc questions I was asking, sorry about the confusion.
I love mazworx products, i have there stud kit in my SR and at 28psi i haven't even needed to retorque them in 2 years. The price they quoted me is hard to say no to. They are based of arp 2000 grade with a fixed stud design, they are awesome.
Thank you for the reply though man and maybe with the added info I prolly should have given to begin with to make it clear you can reply alittle better.
The build looks like this...roughly so far
used gt35 journal style .86 i got laying around
having enjuku source me a maker for the 1600cc injectors
340 aero pump with 044 bosh inline
4bar fuelpressure on vp e85
Having Martin from RS-E do the tune on a ems i have in another car currently
headstuds by mazworx
headgasket by ???? (I know the 28 is 86 bore and l24 is 83, but are the gaskets still the same?
acl race lead bearings ( if same as l24 z)
stock rods cryo treated
stock pistons cryo treated
Competition clutch is making the clutch for me.
stock flywheel
not really sure about the rearend of these cars and diff sizings, i have spares for r200v and r230v not sure if either would work.
I'd be happy to reach near where my 240 sits at now. Which is just shy of 500.
I just didn't know if anyone made 83mm pistons for these motors or not, which is why i wanted to just keep the stock ones,cryo, and lower the compression, but wanted to make sure the piston/valve clearance would be ok.
someone told me at z1 the z l24 and the 810 l24 had diff crank rod clearances which used a different bearing, if this is so I wouldn't be able to order z bearings from acl as they do not have 810s listed.
Ever since I was little i loved riding in this car and now that I have it. I want to do something awesome with it, but at the same time keep the original motor/cahssis. I mean even now it's just an awesome car.
