I'll get this one.

Before you choose the forums, on the main page there is a wealth of info regarding this swap. From coolant options, to tranny choices, to wiring info specifically detailing a starquest.

Post linked so I don't come off too douchy

Lol sucks too hear man. I felt bad about shooting you a PM once every couple months. I guess u just appericate that you are doing these more like a side job. Looks great man, looking foward to trying one.

Verdad

What class let's you completely modify the drive train, and not run a power adder?
please post what class you are building this car for? The fact the you didn't realize you couldn't run a oem turbo on the car suggest that you are unfamiliar with the rules you are building to.

When we have an idea ...

Verdad

Grrrr baby. Im going to have the driveshaft made for the mitsu Tranny just to blow it up.

But I can't wait for this.

Verdad

Me 1st! I was dropping my driveshaft off tomorrow... now ill wait it out

Verdad

TADA!

Verdad

LOL how did i miss this?!? awesome work again bill. Im just waiting on your call and im ready to take one. this little truck will be such a mutt when im finally done its silly

Verdad

Is there any serious issue with running one, as the diff is offset around 2" to the passenger side. I think it would be ok, as that rear end finds homes in tons of other cars, but I'd like to check with someone who knows.

thanks in advance.

Verdad

Yeah its a common nissan thing in the KA engines. 2 exhaust cams on the DEs. Never heard it done with Sirius series, but then again im a newb

Verdad

Ill direct some of the pony boys this way. Next day or 2

Verdad

I have the complete engine oil pan to valve cover, with the alternator.. Its out of my mighty max. ran really well when removed. 36x,xxx miles. 2 things though

1)I live in South Florida and have no idea how to ship it

2) It has 36x,xxx miles on it....

Step 1: Research project.

Sooooo retardedly important to do if you actually plan on getting it done.

There are approximately 32525 pages of info regarding those problems you have had. Here's where to start man, google "project zero g", then before going to the forums read the 1st page. Not wanting ...

Verdad

http://www.projectzerog.com/transmissions.shtml

then i googled "mighty max rear end ratios"

got this,
Check the tag on the rear cover of the differential. All the Mighty Max's left the factory with it, but if it's missing, check the trim tag that's attached to the firewall in the engine ...

Verdad

the 2.0 tranny bolts up to the narrow block. will it take the abuse of a drifting car? thats on you man.

all this info is here. google project zero g. then dont pick the link that comes straight to the forums. read the front page, as they go over tranny options, cooling issues, and piping issues ...

Verdad

i saw this last night around 10:30 and went to bed a happy man!

looks great bill

Verdad

nice glad to see it coming along, just had to slap a motor in my 240, but i should be back to the truck in a couple weeks

keep up the good work Bill, you have tons of eccentric fans on all these niche websites

Verdad

i actually spoke to a guy today regarding an adapter, not ideal, but for less than $100 with evo manifold and throttle body to work on one of our cars its might be a solid inbetween stock and SMIM. I'll let you know what happens over the next week or 2

Verdad

i believe that the engine is a non-interference setup. I'll double check my manual when i get home, but if it was just a broken timing belt, then you should be able to just slap a new belt on and be good to go.

Was feeling particularly rambunctious this morning

only the evo3 really bolts up to a 1g head. and it still faces the same way as the original 1g head. Bill and I were just going over this(he bumped the post)
I was going to make an "sandwich" style adapter that would ease the transition from small to big port but i couldn't get info in regards to ...

im 100% behind the WC T5. and not just because i have one on a shelf in the garage....

i believe your terminology is off.

Typically a "long block" is any engine from oil pan to valve cover(s) which may or may not include accessories. Sometimes intake or exhaust manifolds will still be there depending on who you are buying from.

"Short Block" typically refers to oil pan to just under ...

yea but at $225 vs $1300 ill feel better powershifting

Verdad

thats part of the reason im begging Bill to make a T5 bellhousing. holds decent power and are a dime a dozen compared to those damn supra trannys

Verdad

honestly if you want cheap fast and not a lot of work, just spray the car with one of the idiot proof nitrous kits on the market. a little 40 or 50 shot would make you smile and be cheaper than trying to make weird bolt ons for a redheaded step child of an engine.

as far as the MAF goes there are ...

Verdad

Shit man that sucks, but again thats why im running a chipped 91 ECU with just a stock DSM harness Jeremy hacked up. Projects like this, I try to do one major swap piece at a time, less variables. I like alot of the functionality of Megasquirt, I'd assume get it started and running on OEM-ish fuel ...

Verdad

25.5" for the stock truck trannys

and you can add about 3" using the starion tail section

Verdad

i believe they are non interference engines, which would mean 0 engine damage with a busted belt. changed my timing belt in my '94 in less than 30 mins. its worth buying to sell repaired if nothing else

Verdad

i know 240's(sr20det) do not use flex pipes in the exhaust. i believe typically you'll start to see more flex pipes in exhaust when you are dealing with tubular manifold to help alleviate stress and additional weight on an already weak (relatively speaking) point.

that being said im still going to ...

Verdad

its an aeromotive regulator. real race part, im sure it will be fine. just need a flywheel and a shit ton of piping, and im going to start really workin on it.

Verdad

well so far it seems the car gods have made a bukaki movie all over me.

Tell ya what, I'll ship the T5 and the bill housing back to ya. I think im going to buy a 2.0 tranny so i can get the bugs worked out in the mean time. And when you get the T5 bellhousing built, I have a T5 waiting in my garage already for it. My buddies gave me one on saturday when i just ...

The pics i posted came out of a "world class" T5. Fresh outta a pony 3 days before i posted the pics. My whole life is trying to find a damn R154 and I've had like 6 fall through on me.

anything cheaper than the r154 would be great. people are using them on cheap 2jz swaps so in south florida the prices on r154s are nearing 800.
