Got them sat up on there to test fit, had to trim some down as the original length was about 1/2” to long. The stupid coolant filler neck still interferes a wee bit. Was hoping to avoid putting a 90° right into the rail.
Been pretty busy so slow going
Bought some fuel rail stock and some injector drill bits to make up a few sets to sell. The cost of getting some of these up to canada is about 250 USD. total cost for tools was about 180, and material is like 40$/set with some -6an fittings so it’s a no brainer.
Now the digital dash cluster that was available in these is pretty nifty. Thankfully the gauges should all work without the factory EFI harness because the gauges all have separate sensors from the ecu.
The only issue is the tach takes its signal from the coil voltage spike so if i discard the...
Intake plenum, original intake has these snaking passages down each side. Pretty restrictive when trying to bump up the airflow. Top was cut off of this spare intake and a 1/8th plate was welded to the top.
I still need to drill it out and weld in some bungs so that i can fit the bolts down...
Going to need a better clutch kit. The z31 had two flywheels, the 84-86 turbo as well as the 84-89 N/A had a 240mm version, the later 87-89 turbo had a 250mm to go with the beefier 30a transmission.
They are interchangeable but must be used with corresponding clutch kits.
This fidanza wheel...
They’re honestly pretty underrated, and relatively cheap for an older sports car.
Haven’t driven the non-turbo version myself, but heard they respond pretty well to a good set of cams and headers.
I picked up a second one this summer to drive around, guy was basically giving it away because he...
Engine together
Mitsubishi 3000gt fuel rails bolt up with some mount fabrication.
1g DSM blue top injectors, 420cc top feed vs the stock 270cc side feed injectors
Engine out and about.
Exhaust studs need a bit off help
Heads rebuilt, cleaned and decked
Block hot tanked and decked as well
Crank clearances check out
So a few years ago I traded a t500 for this 87 z31.
It was originally a 2+2 factory turbo automatic.
Swapped in a manual transmission and drove it for a year but decided it needs a little more boost than the factory snail can provide. Basically, full EFI system replacement, bigger turbo, engine...
Re: KLR You Experienced? Not really.
Is the clutch dragging enough to bog the engine down when coming to a stop or will it happen even if you throw it in neutral?
Re: "the Mooch"
This is nothing new, people believe what they want, and need to see and touch the wounds themselves to believe what someone might tell them. The only difference now is that these people feel validated enough to be open about their opinions and what they believe to be...
I think most people just look at the posts and either nod in agreement or chuckle slightly and be thankful that isn’t their country being represented the aforementioned individuals.
