GT-R turbos on the VQ37

husam2012

Thanks again for the kind words! I really appreciate it


Another project that came out of nowhere

Hoping to have the drivetrain out tonight to swap the new one in. Rod knock unfortunately

If those injectors don't hold up to e85. I have brand news id e85 injectors laying around.

husam2012

I got the same exact ones you're selling! Thanks for the offer though


Slow progress so far but getting there.

Doesn't look like his car this one has a stillen SC with an air to air upgrade if I'm not mistaken. Look at the 1st pic you can see the bracket and SC and looks like an air cleaner directly on the SC and the extra pulley for less belt slip installed.

Correct, this is my friends Stillen SC'd '14 NISMO. We took the drive train out over the weekend to swap in a used engine instead.

Small update. These new injectors rock! They car runs as smooth as stock and it pulls without hesitation.

Dyno tune is Thursday hopefully unless the shop can't squeeze me on the schedule Can't wait

Sorry for the lack of posts, have been really busy with life this past few weeks. I'm still waiting for the dyno tune but the car is running perfect at the moment and have put 500 miles on it already.

Almost done putting the new engine back into my friends Nismo. Just waiting for motor and trans mounts from Z1.



Also will be parting out this '14 nismo if you guys need any parts!

It seems like my luck with this car will never end

My dyno was an hour ago and they lifted it to check everything and there was a coolant leak when looking from under the engine. I went back home and it looks like its the crossover gasket.

Anybody know why this could happen? It's really random since I never touched the crossover pipe

Finally fixed everything on this lucky car and the dyno went as planned

Unfortunately the timing was very limited by the octane so I will retune with e85 as soon as I can afford the flex fuel kit (need to also upgrage to a return fuel system) $$$

Good news for people who aren't running one though. Running 93 octane, my fuel pressure with a 340 pump was still 48-52 at redline.

Follow my Instagram for the dyno video. So far it's running awesome but I can't wait to get retuned on e85 as timing is currently 12 degrees at redline.

Remind me pls, what was the tune on the ECM?

Or was some tuning done at this dyno session?

husam2012

The tune was done on the dyno. First pull using the safe street tune I originally got was 390 whp. The tuner then proceeded to make the afr's safer and then increased timing to approx 12 degrees at redline. Anything higher and it was knocking near redline.
He recommended e85 but unfortunately my budget doesn't allow it at the moment.

Keep in mind that this is the first Z that he has tuned. He usually tunes GTR's.
