Turbo LS1 Datsun 240z

[need2speed94]

LS1's are monsters.

[dafrankfuter]

I'm doing an ls1 swap in mine single turbo, what rearend did you use r200 ?

[htmnguyen01]

@dafrankfuter

Its a short nose R200 out of an early 90's infiniti Q45

[Suprakidd1]

lol w/ a ls1 turbo in that 240z u can say fuck you to traction, chances are u guys will never met again.. haha good swap!

[NAWAFN7]

i see ls7 ? why you writed ls1 ? huh

[ColtGT4g63]

@NAWAFN7

Your eyes have decieved you. 

[NAWAFN7]

@ColtGT4g63

R U stupid?

Y did u write it LS1 engine, the engine of LS7

[ColtGT4g63]

@NAWAFN7

What makes you suspect that the engine is an LS7?

I must be stupid then, I guess I guess I accidentally bought the 500 hp engine. That's odd.

[garthhammons]

@ColtGT4g63 he sees the 5.7 on the valve cover, not ls7. besides for the price of an ls7 you could by about 10 ls1's :)

[TheBoostDoctor]

@ColtGT4g63 because mannn it says corvette dude dont you know what a corvette is man? man that dude is right man its a ls7 you might have bought the motor but man i think the youtuber is right bro man you got lied to man im so sorry bro i feel your pain man. peace man

hahahaha ya these idiots see "corvette' and think it HAS to be a ls7 because theres only 1 corvette engine since 1953 thats when the LS7 came out to my uncle billy joe said so

[TheBoostDoctor]

@ColtGT4g63 You got a 4g63 colt?? i had a 93 talon awd for a few years with full boltons injectors 255walbro 3" gm MAF/MAFT, ebay mbc ETS street/strip fmic 3" short route piping custom Brian Crower cams hks cam gears(got em for free) and a garrett gt28r stock trans ACT street disc 7lb flywheel and welded the rear. I loved that car blew the transfer case after atleast 100 1/4mile (or close) passes on the street and 60k miles

[PurcellMotorSports26]

@ColtGT4g63

you can see right on the Engine cover that it says 5.7L...... The LS7 is a 7.0L Learn your facts... the corvette came with more than one engine over time and in different models.

[Vyssockdude1]

@PurcellMotorSports26 Why are you trying to argue with the guy who owns the car and knows what he put in it?

[PurcellMotorSports26]

@Vyssockdude1 I screwed up, i meant to reply to NAWAFN7. He said it was an LS7 which is a 7.0, when the engine cover says 5.7 which is an LS1.

[Vyssockdude1]

@PurcellMotorSports26 Oh gotcha haha yea that guy is a jack wagon

[DsnRabble]

@NAWAFN7 From 97 to 04, the C5 Corvette came with the LS1. The only Vette that didn't have the LS1 at that time was the Z06. The LS7 comes in the 06+ Z06 Corvette. Get your facts straight, and great job on making yourself appear as a douchebag.

[Rougewolf]

@NAWAFN7 Epic fail lol even if if someone was a retard like you they could still see it says 5.7 on the Fuel Rail Covers. BTW 5.7 = LS1

[GuitaristJeimuzu]

@NAWAFN7

Where do you even see LS7 ? The only writing other than Corvette is where it says 5.7L, which means it's a 350, which is the LS1. The LS7 is a 454cubic inch motor, which is a 7liter, not 5.7.

[ttiffom2016]

@NAWAFN7 it says right on the engine that its 5.7L. the LS7 is 7.0L

[gslrotaryrocket]

@NAWAFN7 it says 5.7L...



[BigSloan413]

@NAWAFN7 Thats a LS1!!

[skipsoft]

@NAWAFN7

the motor cover clearly says 5.7L. a LS1 is a 5.7L motor. a LS7 is 7.0L motor. learn more, speak less. just because the motor covers say "corvette" in red does not mean its an LS7.

[modeindustries]

@NAWAFN7 you sir, are either retarded, stupid, ignorant, or all of the above. dumb-ass tried to argued with the guy the bought the motor, it's clearly says 5.7 which is an ls1. and ls7 is is the 500hp model out of the newer corvettes. typical honda driver. "ohhhhhh shittt its a vetch corvette ..... no waiiit its just an ls7 camry they come stock like that you know" retard

[dudamainmoth]

@NAWAFN7 thnk your reading 57l as in 5.7 L

[ieatrice9901]

oh my lorddd nice!



[zrultima]

I would have done an LQ9 or LQ4 swap much cheaper

[ShepperdW]

So... why the covers on the turbo? (never seen it and I don't generally build turbos)

[DsnRabble]

@ShepperdW A lot of people put a whole filter on there, but because of space he just did the mesh screen. It keeps debris out of the turbo.

[PaladinHludwig]

Thats so wrong hahaa

[jdg8124]

i like the color.

[expex20]

Ive been going on with my 2 friends in a battle which is better to swap on my 240z... LS1 or 2JZ???? Can someone plz Help... I want power and daily driver with a great price... So far a 2JZ motor swap already in my Datsun is about $8,000 making around 700hp but i want something around 900hp =D That i wont get stupid problems... boosting also Thank you.

[warrenreed]

I love the wire filter to keep the turbo from ingesting small children...sick dude....sick...

[Ryoukun16]

Sir...

You just got my thumbs up. :)

[XShadowSoljaX]

that is a beast for a datto

[OGmr420]

i wanna see this cars dyno vid(:

[sykoSpanKy]

ls1 turbo, in a 1ton car...

your insane. +5

[footballmania132]

@boredguy1991

Yeah but it's heavy. Great drag setup though!

[footballmania132]

Lol I wonder if Nissan's engineers ever thought people would do this haha..

[gearheadcurt]

thats like cocain on heroin

[sqweekyknee]

this is the ultimate setup in a Z. fuck ya dude

[zrunner240Z]

That is INSANE!!!! I love it!!

[ColtGT4g63]

Hooks very well! 26 x 8.5" slicks on 15" wheels. Cut a 1.4 60 ft. before!

[faisalabulaziz1]

how to do transmit that much power to the wheels with such chass....?? hmmm nice

[smallblocksupercharg]

nice build up im currently in the market for an rb26 for mines but feirst it needs some touches here and there

[FisherPykel]

nice metalica u got going in backround mate :p

[ColtGT4g63]

Sweet!! I'm glad at least one person noticed. :-)

[FisherPykel]

@ColtGT4g63 :P haha hard not to notice :P

[1skiinIan]

@ColtGT4g63 One - Metallica

[ColtGT4g63]

Its not an LS7. The motor in the video is an LS1. The car currently has an LM7 5.3L in it now, LS1 blew up. :-)

I've actually got an air filter on the turbo's inlet now too.

[americansmark]

@ColtGT4g63 What the heck did you do to blow up an LS1? Those are regarded as the most bulletproof motor ever made next to the LNF in the Cobalt SS Turbo

[ColtGT4g63]

I don't know who said the LS1's were bullet proof... But Multiple guys blow ring lands off of the stock pistons left and right. And are by no means bullet proof. When I blew up 2 piston I would estimate the power level was roughly 450 at the wheels. the 5.3 iron block version of the LS1 has been proven to handle much more HP in stock form.

[bighorse215]

@ColtGT4g63 no chevy motor with a LS in it is bulletproof a old nailhead is bullet proof

[halohadel]

@ColtGT4g63 get a termi mustang motor.

Good for 1000hp stock

[Mrchevyman208]

@ColtGT4g63 thats actually pretty rare i have a handful of friends with LS motors and they run them HARD you dont hear about them coming apart that often

[copleygsxr]

@ColtGT4g63 The 5.3 has 9.1 compression the ls1 from a vet has 10.1 yes it will handle more boost based on that detonation kills all don't ask me how I know cool build 

[98montecarloz34]

@ColtGT4g63 were you running no back pressure or what cause they are quiet reliable motors, more so then the iron block version...

[TheUnNerved]

@americansmark A 250 Dry Shot of Nos will blow the LS1 to shit.

[americansmark]

@TheUnNerved 1. Don't call it NOS. That's a ricer term. Ick.

2. Why would someone put 250 untuned ponies into ANY car? Its so incredibly hard to tune NO2. I know a couple tuners who could do it, but they both would try to talk you out of using NO2 at all. Its just not safe enough. I prefer forced induction and meth kits.

[terribleoneprimopro]

@TheUnNerved Who would shoot a 250 dry shot of nitrous into any motor? Holy fucking shit.

Wet kits all the way, even though i'm not a user nor fan of nitrous. I only use it to make whipped cream flat. :D This car is bad ass! Fuck.

[halohadel]

@americansmark ls1 = not bullet proof

dumbass.

[americansmark]

@halohadel Wow.  Nice comeback.

[halohadel]

@americansmark dont need a comeback...its obvious

[canthony1019]

@americansmark the only bullet proof motor i know of is a bmw m20 motor in the late model e30's you can throw 12psi at em bone stock and they'll run for years without any problems... i've seen plenty of people do it too.

[Trueplaya38]

@canthony1019 Cummins 6bt, or almost any inline 6 motor to be exact. Most likely the reason why inline 6's are used in tractors because of the reliability of the motor.

[uniondude31]

@americansmark LS1s are bulletproof, but if you add too much boost to them, they can't handle it, they are running fairly high compression as it is. so in order to run lots of boost it needs to be built up a lot for it, which i doubt he did much of that.

[normanaw]

@uniondude31 an LT1 would have been better for adding boost to. LS1s are better with bolt ons but LT1s will handle a lot more abuse

[Brendon00000]

Wow a ls1 is enough for a 240z but a ls7 with a turbo is just insanity

[chsarmyguy09]

whats up with your inlet mesh cover? any large piece of dirt could fly through there lol..im guessing you changed that right?

[AKxALLxDAYx]

I like that metal air filter cover.

[ColtGT4g63]

Not running the GT45 anymore. Swapped to a 75mm BorgWarner S400. 1.32A/R exhaust

[getoffmyinternet]

Well it keeps out the flies. Not the small flies. Those would get through.

[773comp]

are you running stock bottom end ?

what is the size of your intercooler ?

thanks

[treadlife1]

deer lord that is nice!

[HolyChimaera]

Nice ride dude, keep up the good work!

[ColtGT4g63]

Turbo is an Ebay GT45, I've got a BorgWarner S400 waiting to take its place here in the near future. I've got a Q45 rear diff in there with custom CV axles. Launches 1.4 60 ft. with no problems. I have never blown a head gasket either. I ran anywhere from 7 - 9 psi.

[turbolxcoupe91]

is that the ss autochrome gt45 y2kt-70? i run the same one till the shaft broke in half going down the track running16 psi.

[773comp]

what is the turbo size ??

[k9forkids]

That is some Hard Core setup, I mean the exhaust is just past the front wheels. Any problems with keeping rear ends together or Head Gaskets? How many PSI are you running?

[ColtGT4g63]

Use to run no air filter, have since cut a hole in the inner fender and ran a cold air intake.

[jestermoua]

is there much if a difference from running a screen and running an air filter???power wise, i mean, with running a screen, you get dust and maybe loose sand...with filter, you don't, but how much hp can a filter have with a turbo...

[ColtGT4g63]

I don't know. I would rather not suck up sand / hot air from the engine compartment, to find out.

[TheDanrok]

sounds like a job for.... MYTHBUSTERS!!!!

[DJzSith]

air filter ?

[Magnumscoffeefreek]

deeeeeeaaaaammm

[turbospartan]

i think i drooled on my keyboard. Show us more!!!

[MrSbc327]

i think i have seen this car is this the z dr.

[ColtGT4g63]

Nah, this is not Z Dr.

[verylongfamilylife]

good lord dude!!!will you please post some vids of a burnout or something?

[superhumenq8]

good job bro..

[TheCottonTop]

That thing sounds like a Go-Fast about to take 1000lbs of cocaine up to Florida!

Awsome!

[WS6TALS1]

good lord

[osoqiktsi]

YEAH! 1g bov. lol. isnt that an ls6?

[turbo280z]

Holy Jesus monkey balls. Um, yes please.

[mrtegu]

Good job getting all that to work

[Viking445]
