M.Creer Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Sorry small updates. Quote Link to comment
WagDatto Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Another good point. Only part I don't like much about this type of setup is mounting my oil & trans coolers under the car. I would like them to be up there with the radiator,but I don't think that will work. The main reason people do V-Mount setups (240sx, Z's, most drift cars) is to increase the amount of air going through/over the coolers for the car. Radiator and intercooler, oil and transmission coolers will recieve the full benefit of directed airflow through the front bumper, and most times, the bumper will have a cowling setup to keep the air directed right through the vital parts of the car. It's dope, but not the practical way to protect your shit in an accident. Removing bumper support and core supports are a good way to ruin your car quick if something taps you. Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Damn thanks for the insight. Well by the time I'm ready for that setup maybe I'll take it off the street. Or maybe not even do that mod. Another big thing for me is. Are Individual throttle bodies streetable? Quote Link to comment

M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 A little progress on the Z as well. Mainly repromering it, and gettin it ready for DEQ. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 you should bring the SX out to the show on Sat. or the Z if its driveable Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Oh is that you Chris? Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 you should bring the SX out to the show on Sat.or the Z if its driveable The Z is very driveable, but needs the muffler welded on, it runs & drives great but spits out white smoke? And the SX needs to do DEQ as well.It runs near perfect though so Hopefully I will get it done by Saturday. Quote Link to comment

Sounds like you have a head gasket in the future:( white: water/coolant blue: oil black/grey: fuel Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 A head gasket. I kinda wanted to get an n47 head anyway. An the soda thing was probably.....well I don't even remember anymore. How's the 510? Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) if you bring the Z we can tinker with it a bit, the SX is sick tho, lol get a buddy to drive one and bring both. I wish. I may bring the 200 out though. I love the car, but hate the 90hp and the US bumpers. I want a 2 liter Nissan motor, and jdm bumpers. A SR20DE CA18DE stroked to Ca20de Z20? maybe even a built L20B or A FJ20. Maybe when I get another job. I'll finally find one Edited August 23, 2009 by M.Creer Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Iv actually got an SR20det that I might have to sell Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Sounds like you have a head gasket in the future:( yup its deff up there on the check list :( Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Iv actually got an SR20det that I might have to sell Nice but I am broke. How much would you want for it though? Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 yup its deff up there on the check list :( Really I wanted an N47 with ITB's. So maybe now is the time to go ahead and do it. At least get the N47 on. Since I'm takin the head off anyway. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 prob only like $600, it needs to be assembled and such Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 you should bring the SX out to the show on Sat.or the Z if its driveable I've been thinking the SX may look better if I just took the bumpers off. What do you think? Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 prob only like $600, it needs to be assembled and such If I had $600 I would be all over an SR20DET. Sadly I need employement. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I've been thinking the SX may look better if I just took the bumpers off. What do you think? it doesnt look like its got huge indents under them so go for it, plenty of time to stick em back on if it dosent look good Quote Link to comment
M.Creer Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Yeah. I may try and modify some 620 bumpers front and back. Did you finish with that L28 turbo you were working on? Quote Link to comment
