These are the kinds of builds I love! Keeping the nature of the L Series that is so iconic in the Z platform while updating it to be a livable, lethal package!!
We have 4-5 more like this from this event lined up. Taken us a while to get sorted from when they were filmed but if you liked this I'm sure/I hope you will enjoy the others too. Some great builds out there in this scene 😎 - Taz.
I am always excited to see S30 Z's. I have a 76. I really want that ABS system. I have sequential fuel and spark and no cam sensor. Using only a crank sensor. I have a hall sensor that runs off of the oil pump mounted where the distributor used to be. It's made by Tim (Great guy) at one six industries. I'm using a Haltech Elite 750. I wish I had Z guys near me to collaborate with. That's a beautiful car you have. Take care of her😍
I was thinking instead of the reluctor rings, if the rotors are vented, turn the inside to be concentric and use an inverted pickup. I have a customer with 3 Z cars we are restoring. I think he will like this video.
Yes, they are night and day in configurability terms, you can adjust the Bosch unit on the fly too. I don't think anyone will claim they are equals. While the BMW based option is a bit more expensive now that it has become more popular, comparatively it is still cheaper, and while you get what you pay for it is understandable when compared to no ABS due to being priced out of a top-tier product like a Bosch unit, it is still an amazing upgrade to a car like this 😎 We are actually fitting a Bosch unit to our SR86 for next season. Should be an update on it soon and we have fitted the other option to Andres FJ40 project (just a street build, not a race car) however the Bosch unit will be up and running before we have finished the 40 series - Taz.
Some times i think just coz we have tec to move it forward maybe its good to hold fire & use what works, as the owner kept saying its very reliable.. if she gose & runs nice no need to drip her in tec that u need bill gates to set up. Interesting vid mate. Many thanks frm the UK 😎😎✌✌👌👌👍👍
Pros and cons for everything for sure. The goal is to build what you want to enjoy rather than what someone else would enjoy at the end of the day, whatever that looks like 😎 - Taz.
It's not really hard on L series engine. Nissan made the L24 carburated but the later version, the L28 used a EFI set-up. You just need an ITB kit or an EFI intake, an EFI harness, a ecu and a crank angle sensor or cam sensor. I've done it on my 280z, converted it to ITB and it was a simple process. Especially since the parts to make it work are all already available to purchase.😊
I could be wrong, but I'd say it's been in there a while now and has given no reason to see it replaced with something else for the sake of it. There are certainly more featured (and better supported if you are not tuning yourself) options out there now if you were to build this today though, and at great price points too - Taz.
Young fella needs to do a lot more interviewing and build up some experience on keeping the conversation flowing - it's fairly painful to listen to ATM, but keep working on it.
Only one way to get experience eh! Connor is off to a great start and has the knack for it. Andre doesn't like to see any of his original videos on the channel as he feels he's come so far since then too. Cheers for the support - Taz.

Way to go Darren and Jill. You work so hard and deserve every accomplishment and every blessing. Great family-great people. Well done.

Giving the classic S30 attention ! Great to see!

Great interview Darren!

The E46 M3 ABS module is very pricey, the Bosch motorsport ABS system is very similar but configurable.

I would love more details on how to do this ABS swap! Struggling to find and good info on it
Why, why, WHY did we not get to hear this engine sing? Great interview to only get absolute disappointment by not hearing that straight six.
I would stick an rb35 in that toooooday! 😂
Adding EFI to a ‘non kitted’ motor is tough to do
It's not really hard on L series engine. Nissan made the L24 carburated but the later version, the L28 used a EFI set-up.

Interesting to stick with such an old ecu when megasquirts are pretty cheap and much more powerful. Let alone other units.
I could be wrong, but I'd say it's been in there a while now and has given no reason to see it replaced with something else for the sake of it.

you know for these interviews, you guys need to read the truth detector....
master the art of elicitation.
If we don't have the guys bank account details and passwords by the end of the interview mission failed right 😂 - Taz.
@@hpa101 why settle for less?
Go the zzzzzz
