wreckedj30

hahah thats what you get...jk. man third motor, you must be over reving...oh get a 280zx!

NismoPick

Ah yes... I've been there. 1k miles on my rebuilt L28ET I went cruising on a Friday night. A kid in one of those turbo Mazda Speed 6's was talkin up a storm so I told him lets go. I beat the shiz outta him (I have it on vid somewhere... just need to u/l it) and blew my headgasket. I had to get a buddy to tow my *** 30 miles home at 3am. That sucked!

bardabe

nah. i was not over reving just boost creep fuicked me over.I was boosting 14 creeped all the way to 17. inejctors max out at 15 leaned out. then boom! piston rings went out. by the time i was home I had less than 30Psi talk about low compression lol

ha ha that sucks nismo pick. lol I just left the car at my friends house. over night. then towed it to my place the next day. im sellign the S13 as a rolling chassis how much U think I can get for it?

wreckedj30

i'll trade you for the j30 rear diff. and a tub of bondo...lol. will a vg fit it there?

improper fuel management is not the fault of the poor SR

sorry to hear it blew though. they're not cheap engines like the L28

wreckedj30

cheap to buy or build...or cheaply built?

Z Car Barbie

Sorry to hear that Bardabe! Since you've narrowed your next car down to a Z32 or Z33 and can't resist excessive, spontaneous WOT, you might be better off with a TT.

snwbrderphat540

listen to the lady^^^ Z32 buddy... and i knew it was gonna blow lol... list you went out in glory... nismo, get that vid. and bardabe... yeahhh.... no z33 thats a girl car. lol.

hoov100

how much? $1k????

bardabe

lol ha ha its not inproper fuel management it was boost creep. i actually don;t drive hard. but I just man that saleen thought he was something else. had to show him infront of his gf that my 4 banger was better. anywho. yeah gonna be ont he shopping. someone offered me 1K for the blown motor. so that is going to get picked up in 2 weeks. =) that still elaves the chassis. and tranny stuff. I can proabbyl squeeze 4K out of the whoel thing. so Im only going ot have enough down for a new car. =/

hoov100

how much for the chassis?

bardabe

i woudl not take anithign less than 3K, just cause of the Silvia front end, Brand new paint job, RHD conversion. and painted engine bay.

hoov100

i'd have to take a look at it, ill drop you a PM when i get the check from my insurance co..

Hey man, sorry to hear about that. All aside get a 280zx, they are the shiz man. That is why I have 3 of them. They are easy to aquire, and easy to work on. And parts are still pretty plentiful. Anyway hope you get want you want out of the S13. But glad to hear you are coming back to the Z family.

L28 - stock engines are cheap to buy used. actually, cheap to rebuild too right now until parts are NLA. At the same time, they are not comparable in horsepower or economy to an SR20DET. I was just saying that if I blew my L28, even the turbo one, a replacement is fairly cheap.

Boost creep - well, if your fuel system could handle 20psi, then creeping up to 17 would be no problem.

anyway, on the subject of boost creep, would this be due to an undersized wastegate? Are you running a turbo with internal? ...so the fix would have been an external wastgate? Just curious. I'm keeping my stock T28/T3 (whatever it is) and hoping for no more than 13psi. But I also want to shim up that factory POV to vent at 15psi so I don't end up like you!

bardabe

itsa factory T28, SR's didn;t come with a POV so yeay boost creep. it woudl be a complete waste of money to put an external wastegate on a stock turbo but I was going to go with a GT35R and add the external wastegate with 740cc injectors. however T28 with 370c injectors at 14Psi is pretty much injectors 100% dutty cycle 17 was too much for the injectors even with the added fuel pressure. but hey guys I'm getting an S2000!

CanyonCarver

Turbo that bish!!!!!

bardabe

we'll see. i still have to take my time and research. I went test drive happy yesterday, STi, Evo, Z33, and S2K. the Sti and Evo are the next ricer cars. I didn;t like the way they drove, handled, or anithing. the Z33. well its not exacly what Im thinking. Z32>>>>>>>> X1000 better than Z33. however its going to be pretty hard to get a good loan for a clean Twin Turbo. I want something reliable and fast. but not crazy fast. im kinda gonna kick back on the tuning right now. and I fell in love with the S2000 for the price that they go for its a really good car. if I had 17K cash believe me I would get a Z32 but since I got to finance S2K for the win.

snwbrderphat540

honestly... i would go with the evo.. its a hella strong motor (originally designed to be a diesel) and has been around for soo long that parts are soo easy to find. they are easy to work on and make power really well.. i praise the 4g63 and always will. s2k is still a honda... lol... how can you go from nissan to honda? HOW!?!?! i could see to toyota or mitsubishi... MAYBE subaru (sept they are bitch to work on so not worth it just for that) but HONDA?!?!?! you monster...

bardabe

LOL ... when I droe the evo it honetly felt like I was driving my mom;s car exept stick (H22 Accord) subaru was just eh. Z33 too bulky less potential than a Z32 and a hell of alot more expensive. the S2K is light, has good power and I don;t know of any other free reving car like that from factory. im most likely going ot leave it stock and let it be the DD and girl getter untill I can afford a new project..... Z32 bisnatch.

snwbrderphat540

hmm... well you do live in cali so youcan make a s2k a DD but around here id go evo all the way.. DSM would be next choice in car if it werent for the Z's. at times i wonder why i dotn just get a 4g63 (cause they are cheap as hell) mate it with a starion tranny and drop that in my 260z. cuase i have friends that know EVERYTHIONG TO EVERYTHING about the 4g63 motors...adn they are beasts. lol...

hoov100

you would have to take an STI on a trail and jump it a few times before you can really apreciate it.. and besides arent they designed to be true rally cars?? i mean look at who's been winning in WRC
