wow......

I made 2 other threads in the Engine & Drivetrain about
More details on the blown VVEL engine on every page as more pictures was added http://www.the370z.com/engine-drivet...lown-vvel.html and some finding on the 7AT Flex wheel (type of flywheel) http://www.the370z.com/engine-drivet...wner-look.html there has been quite a few possible projects, each of them were quite interessting. - LSx - VK56 - VQ35hr long rod engine - OEM Vq35HR (7500rpm rev limit ! ) swap and keep the blown engine to rebuilt it later on with the proper mods I got quite a few parts priced at, such as those nice big cam 310dur 13.7mm of lift drysump which wasnt too too expensive after all, but quite over of my current budget. the logical path that I think I should take would only get that ViPec V88 ECU and install only my spare HR engine as it is. (but slightly modified with baffled oil pan and some engine tweaking.) my budget cant afford that 15k $ I need to get everything ready by June 2013. then my idea is in 2014, where everything happens. Uprev is good up to a certain point and Ive been shown and explained why. Even me having only an N/A engine setup it teached me that Uprev is soo basic that it isnt as good as people thinks. But its the only plug-in software that can easily be tuned on the 370z. |
a quick update just saying this project isnt dead !
Im doing some tweaking/cleaning and re-assembly of my spare engine http://www.the370z.com/members/megan...emade-bath.jpg http://www.the370z.com/members/megan...-back-bath.jpg |
Looking good, good luck with the rebuild :tup:

It seems to me that putting a VQ35 engine would be a 'downgrade' for the 370z . . . The VQ37VHR is more advanced/powerful and was designed for the 370z (and G37) chassis, yea ? . . The VK56 V8 in the car would be along the lines of building a race car or drift car: very cool ~ ~ 55

but knowing where my project is going, the HR head is the way to go. Actualy it will be an VQ37HR minus the V which is the VVEL setup. but mind you if you can spare the $$ for an VK56 , let me know ! I will be glad to do it. My budget doesnt allow me to send the engine block which had the blown VVEL & oil pump to a machinst and have everything done to it. so I took my spare HR engine.I am in the process to stroke it to 3.7 from the VHR crank ,VHR connecting rod and HR piston. Big cam and custom piston is later in 2013. http://www.the370z.com/members/megan...-hr-piston.jpg |
quick update !
I just finish installing every HR pistons with the VHR crank/connecting rod. that wasnt very easy to do !!! there is 2 spots on the HR piston that need to be modified due to clearance. It took about 8 hours only to deal with those HR pistons and comparing with the VHR piston. 1 step closer for an VQ37HR !! :happydance: |
I was reading into our USER CP.
I found this nice comment from someone who repped me Quote; '' dude, I don't know how you don't have more rep since you're rebuilding your own engine. sorry to see what happened but mad props for where you're going! '' Thank you very much for that kind of msg :tup: unfortunatly I dont do any threads on this forum to be repped and I dont expect anyone to do it,,, because I see quite a few peoples with a very high rep rating but they arent really deserving it.... Ive only been doing a very few major thread and diy on here and they quickly died. my blown VVEL head during a Time Attack http://www.the370z.com/engine-drivet...lown-vvel.html showing 7AT owner about a very serious problem that many to this day discovered which also made me losing 30whp since it was making the knock sensor unhappy! *pulling timing* http://www.the370z.com/engine-drivet...wner-look.html I know I have a DIY splitter album but im not sure if I actualy start a thread or talked about this Nissan 370Z Forum - Megan370z's Album: DIY Custom Splitter somewhat showing how to modify a 350z HR intake manifold to swap it on the VQ37vhr http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...take-swap.html custom CAI & MAF http://www.the370z.com/intake-exhaus...m-cai-maf.html PPE long tube headers install http://www.the370z.com/intake-exhaus...pe-header.html DIY Stillen headers/HFC http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...-berk-hfc.html again,. Thank You. :tiphat: |

That spoiler looks ridiculous. It is way to big for the car. IMO

:inoutroflpuke: :gtfo2: look at what is the purpose of the thread :shakes head: oh ,, again.... :gtfo2: edit; btw I should have went with a bigger wing !!! this one is only 68'' wide I might end up getting a 72''-74'' for 2014 |
I wasn't saying it was bad for performance I was saying it looked ridiculous. A flying T-Rex may be effective, but it sure would look ridiculous.

Quote:
you still fail to see why the wing is on the car and not on for the look who care if it look ridiculous anyway ?? ohh excuse me, 98% of the370z.com folks prefer look over function. you are just one of them , for this I forgive you. you dont like it ? well, dont come back thank you. |
Any pics of the block with the HR pistons installed?
Do the HR pistons have a shorter piston height? (hard to tell from the pics but it kinda looks that way) If so, what do you think the overall CR would be? nice work btw :D |
