Single Turbo Nissan 300ZX

[trukilla7]

so was it a tt motor to begin with or did u upgrade to a na? and if u you graded a na about how much did it cost?

[BiGfAtCaN]

@trukilla7 it has na front so I'm assuming he upgraded man

[smithandwessern]

a great deal of turbo lag

[DVcustomZ]

@smithandwessern Not really

[NBKilledU]

yaaaaaaa nick zzzzzz its casey

[PhantomZ93]

dude how did yu do this.. i have a 93 n.a and thats G what u did

[birdseatdogs]

its seems dumb but i wana kno more, i have a 94' N/A and i was thinking of super charger , tt, or single, but with the single im tryin to figur out hot to get both headders into a exhaust manifold for turbo, or sould i just motor swap for tt?

@birdseatdogs if you would like to boost an N/A you would have to build your motor. 88mm wisecopistons and eagle rods will be fine for 800rwhp. if your within 5k range single turbo is cheaper. buy a twin turbo transmission and drive shaft along with an XTD stage 3 clutch. but remember the specs for pistons and rods are for the twin turbo motor not the N.A i dont know whats different from the NA to TT besides pistons.

[TheAirsoftbeast22]

is it posisible to put in a single turbo on an na because i have the same car and i want turbo but i dont want to buy a tt or spend more that 5 grand. how much would it be if so???

@JDMforever11 87.5 is .20 over the NA blocks are the same except for oil squiters and filter tree the TT has plugs in it to maitain oil pressure

[JDMforever11]

@DVcustomZ i think this is an N.A that was built with turbo. even though the N.A is not much different its still more expensive to build than a twin turbo swap.

[DVcustomZ]

@JDMforever11 What is making you think it is an NA motor? Most of the ppl who go single turbo take the TT motor and just remove the manifolds. Which is what I am going to do on my other two Z's. It opens up turbo options.

[JDMforever11]

@DVcustomZ idk. vg30dett already come twin turbo. single turbo i dont think is that good because it makes lag.

[DVcustomZ]

@JDMforever11 The LAG is no more than ppl who run 3071/ or 3076 twin set up. When u consider the VG runs parralel so only 3cyl R pushing each turbo and go with a 77mm single will create some lag but it really depends on the purpose of the car. if your car is a true DD than anything bigger than say a 2860 is going to be laggy for a true daily street car

[JDMforever11]

@DVcustomZ single 77mm turbo sounds like a good idea. it will also clear up some space on your engine bay so its easier to work on.

[DVcustomZ]

@JDMforever11 and as you know that is the biggest weakness of the Z SPACE

[JDMforever11]

@DVcustomZ yesss.

[dlongmu]

@DVcustomZ

Good point, the tt already has the lower compression and fuelling sorted for boost. Also looking at the 'before' pics it's running twin intercoolers up front.

[DVcustomZ]

Who did your manifold for you?

[JDMforever11]

hey wanna say nice twin turbo conversion (it hs an na bumper) and nice numbers
