300ZX stepping out on boost

[chachacha268]

some guy in my school has a 300zx that looks exatcly like that.

[sleepwalker29]

Retarded ass spoiler!

[jonceballos]

@sleepwalker29 disagree

[AngrySackBoy]

@sleepwalker29 Also disagree, being as that's stock as fuck. Life noob.

[andz0]

nice 300zx

looks like sunshine, vic



[QualityAutoPartsRUs]

That beast is packing some heat. nice car

[coldfish94]

check it out folks rwd fwd awd all the same u makin 500 600 hp u putin down the same times really when it comes down to it its what u like not what u hate except ford lol never liked anything the produce except the super snake an they had help lol all cars are fun jus depends on what u use them for

[fordfalconfanclub]

@coldfish94 i think you should go see how a xr6 turbo is, they are the best value for money with mods ect, you can buy a ba xr6 turbo "auto" the manual box is shit in the ba series, and pick one up for $12000 spend $5000 on it and have a car with 300rwkw+ and the engine will last for a very long time producing that power so dont go hating on fords when there just as good as ever other car make out there.

[DjayJohn]

80?..that looks like 30

[8rvenom]

@DjayJohn 80kph dumbfuck american

[MoeJae86]

@8rvenom OUCH lol. XD

[SangumaKROW]

@DjayJohn what are you, some sort of dumb fuck american?

[Stevenhiggles]

@DjayJohn fail

[andynethesurf]

lol on the brooker, nice!

[alexoprel]

FUCK OFF with the fucking honda civic shit.

its like fucking a BBW with a small cock and being proud of it.

children.....pffffffff

[619FLYnigga]

sound like a lambo im working on my 91 z 32 videos ss00n

[xquailx801]

Twin turbo or not, this car is a fucking bad ass

[sgtarnold933]

my fav Z of all time

[831caliking]

is this car good for a 6`1 person? or is to to small?

[theguythatcould]

@831caliking 6'1 is fine

[831caliking]

@theguythatcould awesome thxz.. i know some one who is 5`9 but he seas its kinda small...

[sim300]

@831caliking I'm 6'1", there is a little more room in a 2+2 oppo

sed to a 2+0

[domimichiels]

aaah the 300zx home of the Z32 maf used in tuned imports since the dawn of time :-)

[thing503]

I'm not familiar with this car. I'm a V8 guy lol. But how many cylinders? 6?

[sim300]

@thing503 Yep, V6 twin turbo

[fruitbooting132]

@sim300 i tohught z's where streight 6?? mabey im wrong

[sim300]

@fruitbooting132 You'd be wrong ;)

[travASS13]

@sim300 its an inline 6

[sim300]

@travASS13  Yeah ok, if you say so. I've never popped the bonnet in the 8 years of ownership, so I have to admit I have NO idea (note sarcasm).

[travASS13]

@sim300 trololololol

[pepene93]

@sim300 remember: sarcasm doesnt do so well over the internet, lol

[zeekdavis11]

@travASS13 no, your an idiot

[damico123456]

@fruitbooting132 Your not 100% wrong the older z's did come with a straight 6 look the 240z and the 280 both were straight 6, but then they went to v6 (vg30det) turbo then the v6 tt (vg30dett)

**and yes they also had N/A

[SuperMat90]

@fruitbooting132 the first and second generation where (240z, 260z, 280z, 280zx), it wasnt till they came out with the 300zx that they where v6

[mikeyyy187]

@fruitbooting132 no the 240 260 the 280 are streight 6 but the 300zx are v6 the 350z is a v6 and the 370z is also hope this helps u

[AlphaKingsMachinima]

@fruitbooting132 Nah, Skylines were the Straight 6's.

[jabba12000]

@fruitbooting132

The older ones used to be straight 6

[3sgtealltrac]

@fruitbooting132 280z is

[tandrew2100]

@thing503

You can easily tell its a v6 from the poopy sound it makes

[thing503]

@tandrew2100 I didn't know if the car was an I4 or 6 cylinders. It's obviously not a V8 lol. I actually think this sounds better than any I4. Not poopy at all IMO.

[tandrew2100]

@thing503

You sir have bad taste

[AKIman522]

@thing503 Hey, you were right about z's having inline 6s. When, they made the 300, however, they switched to v6, that's why the hood on every previous model is so long. They just now switched to v6 on the R35 GT-R. Every model before this one was inline 6 as well.

[AKIman522]

@AKIman522 Oh, fuck, I replied to the wrong person.

[thing503]

@AKIman522 Yeah, I miss the Skyline I6 motors. I mean, the new one is still a kickass motor but the RB motors were legendary.

[idzdafinest]

my stock z32tt running 7psi kicks out way better den det lol

[chris96yamha]

dont know whether to get 300zx tt or gto twin turbo

[joe645733]

thing is kind've ugly.

[aidas999]

nice

[Badbrad416]

what kind of car is that?

[squarecnix]

too bad its an auto

[TheNiss300zxtt]

if u live in los angeles ca or just a fan of these cars join the facebook page for LAZ32 car club. Fairladyz300zx@hotmail

[Twins2Sidewayzx]

haha check out my vid if u like z32's

[heterosapien69]

this is in the Caribbean huh?

[OlLi31995]

great noise :D

[penaguay]

the guy under me is right!

these cars are a beast!

but they are a bitch to work on! no room at all..

everything is super compact under the hood!

[nowelleoh]

i agree with that, my friend has 1 that hes working on, and he showed me under the hood...i was like WTF LOL

[xraidedlok]

look like the new camaro kinda

[ExtremeXer]

Civic? Hahhaa! Civic isn't eeveen a car lol. It's so small.

[enigmaPL]

@ExtremeXer civic isnt even a car bcuz its so small? wow shows how insecure you are about 'size' lmao. a car is a car, and they should be bought according to preference, thats all

why are there so many people that dislike other cars due to size? ill tell you why, severe insecurity and nothing else, they feel the need to buy BIG cars, BIG rims, BIG wutever the fuck else to make up for what they lack, small cars simply means they weigh alot less, and require less hp to go as fast

[aweboloco]

@enigmaPL I find so interesting your comment. A car is a car but...

When a car is FWD is not a sport car even though could be faster. You are right. I had a Honda Accord and someone stole it. I didn't feel worried at all but if someone steals my actual car (rwd) I would faint lol

enigmaPL: you got to drive one to have "the feeling" (a Honda S2000 maybe).

PS: I got to say I like the new Accord Coupe (271-hp, 3.5-Liter, 24-Valve, SOHC i-VTEC) because of the Paddle Shifters xD (...still fwd)

[HitMan1263]

10PSI? SMH, running 10 PSI is something a dude with a civic would do. If you're gonna go with forced induction, go big or go home bro.

[tchenku]

So you went up 1 psi over stock boost and you made 295whp. No, I don't think so.

[sim300]

That's correct. At stock boost (9psi), it made 280hp.

[tchenku]

280whp equates to about 350hp at the flyhwheel, which the 300zxTT did NOT have from factory. Either that's not 10psi in the video, or you had really crappy tires. Look at my 240sx video. No wheelspin at all at 20psi, estimated over 400 whp (500hp flywheel)

[sim300]

My Z is not stock. I have GT2560R turbos (as well as other supporting mods), and at the time of the video I had 2.5 degrees negative camber in the rear.

[edebono]

lol tchenku

you put your foot in it.....i know this car and its mods...the car isnt stock..and it does have that power figure..

maybe research before blabbing your trap

[tchenku]

I don't know this car, but I do know cars. and cars don't gain 70whp from 1 psi increase in boost. Now that he mentioned his upgraded turbos, I can understand, but where were they ever mentioned here? Oh... they weren't. "At stock boost" implies stock turbos.

[Sp33dJunky23]

No it does not. Stock psi does not mean stock turbos dude.

[bizenniboi]

but at the same time why would you run stock boost with stock turbos? if you get bigger turbos and run teh same boost all your getting is more lag

[Sp33dJunky23]

No if you get bigger turbos and run the same amount of boost you get more volume from the bigger turbos. You can run the same amount of boost on a bigger than stock turbo and create alot more power! The bigger the turbo, the more volume.

[ilovefastcarslots]

finnaly someone that knows something on here!.

boost is basically meaningless... 15psi on a small turbo wont move as much air as a bigger turbo at 8psi

[JaymezSPCM]

@Sp33dJunky23 Finally someone who gets it. *highfive*

[bloodseedrums]

@Sp33dJunky23 but if your running a larger turbo theres no point in running the same boost as now you are suffering from turbo lag becuase it takes that big turbo longer to spool up

[charade993]

@Sp33dJunky23

thats not strictly true. Engine displacement,RPM and boost determine volume required. a larger turbo will provide an elevated boost level at the same or greater RPM more efficiently than the stock turbos.More efficient=less heat in the compressor/less energy required to flow the same volume, so the power is greater.A larger turbo will be less efficient at producing stock boost pressure at the same RPM as a stock turbo. This is why we have VNT...to get the best of both worlds :)

[Lemon0Tart]

@Sp33dJunky23 and the more lag...

[pepene93]

@Sp33dJunky23 youre joking, right...? a bigger turo will be able to create higher pressure in the intake, but if you set it to the same amount of boost as the smaller ones, you just increased your lag without gaining any power. also known as an idiot trying to modify his car

[LordFabs]

@Sp33dJunky23 Not quite the right wording with volume, but it's the idea

[coolkid134134]

its like blowing air out of a straw, vs blowing air out of a 3in pvc pipe

[ItsMrWinters]

@Sp33dJunky23 and the more lag. Some people run dual turboes at different sizes to reduce the lag plus try to get the powerband as big as they can

[FMAZON3]

@Sp33dJunky23 and the longer it takes for it charge

[yourhollisterdude]

@Sp33dJunky23

psi refers to how much pressure the engine under due to air pressure. 20psi is 20psi regardless of turbo size.

[TheCamRobinson]

@yourhollisterdude the bigger the turbo the more air you move a gt35r (decent size turbo) and a 16g (small turbo) at the same psi the 35r will make much more power. the 35r flows more volume of air

[yourhollisterdude]

@TheCamRobinson

Not true, Since your pulling the volume card think about it like this. You have a empty 12 oz beer bottle, it doesn't matter if you fill it with water with a garden hose or a fire hydrant. Its still going to only hold 12oz. (ie the same amount of volume) In alot of cases, a smaller turbo will actually produce more power then a huge turbo because of turbo lag/spool time.

[TheCamRobinson]

@yourhollisterdude but you also have to take in the flow rate of the turbo ( how many cubic feet of air it moves a minute) and a small turbo can only flow so much thats why you don't see t25s on race cars it just blows hot air after a certain psi they can only go to 14psi on average after that it's a hair dryer

bigger turbo = more power. the balance between power band and spool is the key

[Spadadiforza]

@TheCamRobinson

small turbo can only flow so much thats why you don't see t25s on race cars it just blows hot air after a certain psi they can only go to 14psi on average after that it's a hair dryer

bigger turbo = more power. the balance between power band and spool is the key

The smaller turbos experience compressor stall sooner.

The larger turbos give you more power potential via a larger quantity of flowrate but are more of a load on the engine to drive thus lag being a factor.

[Spadadiforza]

@yourhollisterdude

The firehose will fill that volume faster thus reducing any lag in getting the motor into the higher VE % #s. The smaller turbo will produce it's peak power sooner than a larger turbo at the expense of a higher power rating.

[1999sebring]

na man a bigger turbo moves more air which means you can run lower boost and get more power like in the case of my 88 turbo coupe ran 20 psi on the t25 upgraded to a t3/4 and lowered it to 10 psi and got more power than I did from 20 psi on the little turbo

[dhillskier75]

20% drivetrain loss? where r u getting that. thats in awd territory.

[bizenniboi]

im am alwasy conservative and say 15% for fwd, 20% for rwd and 25% for awd

[niggataytay300zx]

Its because you have a 240sx haha My friends 300zx tt with just intake and exhaust will break loose just like this one. I love 300zx's =]

[loucks428]

til you have to work on them! haha ever seen under the hood on one? there is no room to do anything!

[BlueAngelWRX]

@tchenku Where the fuck do you get your fly to ground numbers from?! 100whp loss on a RWD? HAHAHHA

[tchenku]

@BlueAngelWRX It's common knowledge that 15-20% drivetrain loss is normal for RWD cars. 500*0.8=400whp, do your math. Want me to calculate 15% loss for you too?

and about the "stock boost" thing. I'm right; you're wrong. Saying your car runs stock boost means that it does so on stock turbos. Are you saying he can have twin GT42R's @ 9 psi on the car and still claim stock boost? Don't be an idiot.

not hating on the 300zx owner/car, just others' comments.

[BlueAngelWRX]

@tchenku First off, the moot point was not about "stock boost." It was the fact about the numbers he dynoed in at as opposed to the amount of boost he was putting out. Secondly, calculations don't mean a fucking thing considering the fly to ground numbers can change just by the weight of the rims you put on your car. Fly to ground is also determined by the weight of the flywheel. So before you dish your generic calculations, you may want to do a little research of the car first.

[tchenku]

@BlueAngelWRX Don't bother with driveline physics with me; I can get on your case for failing to mention driveshafts, old bushings, mounts, gear mesh, fluid viscosity, etc. That's just basic. What I do want to know, however, is what YOUR idea of a proper RWD driveline loss figure would be. What makes 20% so ridiculous? A simple search will show you 15-20% as the accepted loss. Of course it's generic; no hobbyist dynos his engine. "stock boost" is directed to other users/points.

[BlueAngelWRX]

@tchenku I can sit here and argue over this for days with you, but that's just a waste of time. I don't want to talk ghost numbers.. I want pure proven results. If a RWD vehicle produces 300bhp and dynos in at 250whp.. then the loss is obviously 50whp. So how the fuck you go from losing 50whp to 100whp is beyond me. Percentiles don't mean shit. That's a blind calculation.

[tchenku]

@caprimentle holy shit people. I'm hand-feeding you universally-accepted figures and you still can't let it go. I'm still right and you are wrong. Until you strap your engine on an engine dyno and on a chassis dyno, stfu

[tchenku]

@caprimentle well don't you give us some figures then. show me that they don't fall in the 10-20% range for road cars.

[tchenku]

@caprimentle and still you don't have any figures to tell me. Looks like your work experience at a rolling road is complete hogwash, considering your irrelevant points and horrible spelling/grammar. Think about pedalling a single-gear bicycle to 20mph. You can do it slowly and easily get there. You can do it as hard as you can and get there faster, but now you've had to work through a whole lot of additional resistance. Instant lost power.

[hakinen4000]

@tchenku it makes me sick to see ppl TRYING to compare 240sx's to Z's...sure, we are both nissan, but the 300zx is superior in every way, from looks to performance, thats how nissan meant for it to be..and if u try to get smart on me then sure u can have all the power u want on ur 240sx but its always gonna have that 4-cylinder fart-like sound and most important of all things, even if u do the 1/4 mile in 1 second, its still a 240sx...nothing less, and nothing more..

[tchenku]

@hakinen4000 I love Z's but I'm not talking about Z's, am I? Read a little more thoroughly before you spew inane accusations.

[FrankieC63]

@hakinen4000 i completely agree

[FrankieC63]

@tchenku the car was rated at 300 hp from the factory. If he put bigger turbos in, he would have no problem pushing 280whp. If you are losing that much hp from the flywheel to the tires, time for a bnch of mods or a new car. When you compare a 240sx to a 300zx, don't act so shocked when you find out hes pushing that much hp with only 10 PSI of boost. My 1986 with the original t3 and a boost controller can push 240whp at 10 PSI. My friends GTR was pushing 320whp with 14 psi of boost.

[tchenku]

@FrankieC63 if you look at my earlier posts, I did not contest the fact that 280whp with upgraded turbos was possible. With regard to 280whp, I said that "stock boost implies stock turbos." An Evo makes 280hp at stock boost (~18psi). If you slap on a T78 and claim 500hp at "stock boost," you are being ridiculous.

[jabba12000]

@FrankieC63 his gtr may get 320whp at 14 psi but my Z has stock turbos and at just 9psi i get 320rwhp and at 18 i get nearly 500rwhp. With stock turbos.

[joe645733]

@jabba12000 i also have a twin turbo z. 380whp @ 17psi on stock turbos. prove that yours makes 500whp with the stock turbos. i've only heard of one person making 499whp on the stock turbos. but anyways, i'm not a huge fan of this guy's z. it's a bit ugly and it didn't look like his car, "Stepped out". looks like he just jerked the wheel

[jabba12000]

@joe645733

i don't have a camera.... but i have a lot of bolt ons and a dyno tune and only get 500 when i run race fuel.

[joe645733]

@jabba12000 what engine management?

[9hazelchow]

Haha , thats in Tas ay haha?

[sim300]

Sure is, Brooker Hwy

[s31vec]

dude what is it running? (300zx) i am looking what to do to mine to make it do what it does in the wet in the dry :D

[JezzaN1]

i was about to ask if it was on the brooker myself haha.. that 300 seems like a bit of a weapon.

[footballmania132]

@sim300

Hp and whp are completely different things.

[dhillskier75]

he has an exhaust system along with many other things.

[SmoothToke420]

that car is stock! i have a 89 fairlady z and at 90 at flore it and its spins... he probaly just lock hes rear end. is it a Z or just a 300zx tt?

[sim300]

Haha What are you talking about? Stock? Locked rear end? Do you know anything about these cars?

[turbo240man]

Suckerface Im 30 and I think that car is clean. you must be 50 or something. time to buy a buick dude. the old folks home is callin

[DVcustomZ]

If you run water/meth injection you can run your boost at the limit of you injectors and not worry about detonation but larger injectors and ecu upgrade are definitely safer

[Sukerface]

As a former Z owner, those visual mods make me sick to my stomach. The 300zx is one of the most beautiful cars ever made, leave the fucking thing alone.

And that exhaust sounds like a chainsaw. God damn I hate you ricers so much.

[DVcustomZ]

This 300 is'nt rice its clean with some mods.

[Infuse16]

@Sukerface is this you're car..... No so don't worry what others do to THERE cars and keep your own car standard, I'm sick of all these people that go around calling people ricers for doing things to There cars that they think looks beter. Everyone has there own opinions of what they think looks good. gtfo

[sim300]

Yes :)

[Cerberuselite]

new pants for the driver then =D

[sim300]

No, I'm quite use to it now haha.

[chimaera1855]

guys how much psi a tt can take without drama????

[fearmystabz]

10-14psi, But I would reccommend 8psi if its going to be a daily driver.

[silentlemon]

well with stock injectors you could do upwards of 14psi but that's getting close to leaning out. injectors are tremendously important; do the supporting mods first. When i had a 300zxtt i had 555cc injectors doing 13.5 psi DD and 19 psi when racing/autocross.

[1993z32]

13psi is 100% safe with stock turbos/injectors for DD as long as you have a proper ECU. 8psi is below stock... don't know where you're comin from on that one.

[fearmystabz]

I figuired that but I was just trying to give him a SUPER SAFE range to boost at lol.

[1993z32]

I guess 8psi istechinaly safer than 10-13 if you don't want the power, but I've seen Z's that have been running 13psi for 200,000 miles on the same motor. Even 16-18psi can be safe with the proper tuning. The key is tuning!!!

[Psycho4her]

For the 300zx 9 Psi is stock. 6 psi means its in safety mode.

[Energonorama]

youtube squirrels

[L0N3W0LF2008]

thats a bad azz z!!!!

[OO7ISHAN]

too bad its an auto

[xmikerinehartx]

@OO7ISHAN what wrong with auto...? its a very nice car

[bigblockboi]

hey man what exhaust is that...sounds really good

[sim300]

Thanks... I actaully have a newer exhaust to the one in this video.

I have another vid "300ZX twin turbo exhaust" which lists what system I have

[jbriggins]

hey sim300, I have a 90TT and I am about to step up to about 10 psi. How much power do you think you have?

[sim300]

At 10psi, it made 220rwkw.

[sim300]

Luckily I used psi, and not bar... Then you'd be really confused haha! Guessing you are to stupid to convert KW to HP?

[squarecnix]

LOL fruit!

[beestonbash]

he can use what the hell he likes 'FAG'

[twinturbo300zx]

zlut!

[LAsteez]

300zx's are no fuckin joke.

[carcrazyguy]

How much boost, 14 psi + ??

[sim300]

That was @ 10psi.

[rainey06au]

Power!

[psykurt]

shake that ass ;)
