14psi good for daily driving?!?! if daily driving involves murdering corvettes lol jus "A to B" daily driving sounds good at 8psi to me. thats just me..
Unless you got the engine super cheat or for free then i can see the swap being worth it, but the VG30ET is far better and cheaper to build getting more out of it then the VG30DETT.
@TheAirsoftbeast22 When you add more air under pressure, as with a turbocharging, you increase the compression ratio, which adds more power. But you need more fuel to be mixed with that air. If the car's fuel injection can't add enough fuel, your engine goes boom. "How much boost" is a loaded question that depends on lots of factors.
too much is god if you got enough fuel so it wont fuel cutting and cooling, but if you don't have that the pistons and rods can melt or you can get ignition knocking
That is awesome, I am accually doing the same swap right now, just with the vg30de in stead of the tt, it is suppost to be alot simpler and drops right in, I was told the only custom parts I would need is a custom intake and exaust, where are you guys at, I would be really interested with seeing this car, there aren't many vg30de powered z31' s, I'm in richmond va, and anywhere on the east coast I can probly get to
Nice swap guys, freed up a TON of space! Hey i recently blew a rod bearing due to oil starvation.The engine i had was running 555 inj, bored .40 over, wiseco pistons + a ton of other upgrades. Do you think it would be cheaper to get a new engine & upgrade that one or to crack open the engine and replace/fix and possible machine work?
I'm not sure why you would want to swap in an engine (RB25) with lower displacement, is not bolt in, and is hard to get parts for. I think you should just rebuild. Plenty of power to be had with the engine the car originally came with.
can anybody show me the ways to get the wiring for this i have a series 1 84 na which now has a VG30det i live in australia so i dont have to worry about mod slip (about 1500 extra from an engineer) the engine is in exaust and some other minor mods but the problem i have is the wiring. My current mechanic is useless and expects another 2500 which i dont have so if anybody can help me i would be greatly thankful
Do you guys know if by any chance the 300zx vg30de (non turbo) transmission is compatible with the vg30dett engine?? I have a NA 300zx with the vg30de and the manual gear box and i was wondering if only swaping the vg30dett would be ok
The Electromotive GTP ZX Turbo race car, which used the VG30ET, could put out 1000RWHP in qualifying trim. I saw a dyno chart and peak boost was at around 100 inches of mercury, which converts to around 50 psi. Race cars can do some pretty retarded things. Unfortunately I cannot post the URL to the dyno chart here because of the dumb comment rules. Send me a message and I'll send you the link.
are you in NYC? you can come down to the shop and speak with us we can definitely do yours. You can also see her in person. We are currently building my personal vg30dett

@TheAirsoftbeast22 psi is the pressure from the turbo.

I like how the car hides the VG30DETT by welding the dual exhaust in to a single outlet... probably costs some power though right?
