Wicked build bro. The channel is great especially because I'm trying to build my z31 also. I'm also from Toronto. Cheers
Hey just down the road in hammytown here.
You have no idea how hyped I was to see this video finally dropped. Congrats on the tune, and excellent video. Keep it up!
Your engine bay is so clean. I still have all the old cosmoline on mine. It protects the engine but it doesn't look so nice.
I love your car so much, to see somebody to take the time and build a 30+ year old motor rather than just put some lame LS in there is so unique, I’ve had my Z31 for 2 weeks, and I love these cars
This is my dream to do to my Z31, I am putting a VG33E in it and I'm gonna make it NA2T.
Thanks for posting this build, what a joy to watch all the details!
awesome job man. its always daunting when dyno day comes up and you're triple checking everything!
Geezus!!!! Your Z is ABSOULTELY gorgeous!!! Love ALL your videos, extremely helpful. Thank you for all you do🙏🏼🙌🏼
Good god what a gorgeous build man, seriously. I'm following a lot of what you did on my path with my Z. Just ordered the clutch damper delete kit and short throw shifter hopefully I'll have em in tomorrow. Maybe one day mine will look that good. Hot damn.
The owner of DMT has an insane 1994 Toyota Camry so I’m sure the guys did a good job on the tune
What a beautiful z. Looks and sounds amazing. Well done!. Thanks for sharing!
Man, i've been following all your videos on this car and its turned out great. I wish I had the time/money to get mine finished.
It’s not much power but it’s a light car so it’s more than enough, I like it
Awesome work man!!!! One thing with the launch control, i was actually able to use a brake light switch on the clutch pedal. There brake light switch closes when you press in the pedal, as apposed to the to the clutch switch. The harness was different so i just used a couple of spade connectors and put heat shrink around then.
She’s beautiful ! The z31 is my dream car !
The VG 30 was definitely the best sounding motor ive ever owned. I almost miss it but The 84 Z I had was a money pit
Do you still have this car? Love your content I've learned so much 👍🏼
Clean Z31 bro! Hopefully I can get my '84 Z31 back to start soon!
That turbos definitely out of steam. It's really nice to see megasquirt cars completed. What kind of ignition timing was that and out of curiosity... it may be covered in other videos. did you guys verify ignition timing through trigger wizard? Your build is very similar to my l28 build. I'm on megasquirt 1 converted to megasquirt 2 with a 2.2 daughter card been running for 12-13 years now. I started very similar to you with a T3/T4 (made 323 @354tq @ 18 degrees of ignition timing 1 bar boost) and now I'm rocking a holset with a Billet compressor wheel makes 400ish 22 degrees ignition timing at 20 lb of boost with water meth. I haven't dynoed it with the new turbo and water meth. Anyway awesome z31 you should turn it up more.
Best looking z31 for sure
Absolutely love this car!
365 is great for that motor. I would be happy with it.
Very clean, nice work all around!!
Your turbocharger is not maxing out, it's not properly holding boost pressure. Look at where you have your BOV located, it should be moved closer to the throttle body. Also recommend getting an external wastegate, also a Pathfinder intake manifold plenum.
Old maxima intake is nice for shorter charge pipe routing. Seems a few things aren't in harmony with this setup but it looks clean and shiny.
BOV has nothing to do with making power or holding boost pressure. This plenum is also gutted, ported and the the throttle body is much bigger then stock. 350-400 is normal for a stock style hybrid turbo
I subbed to you Dude. Love ur z!
Where did you get the radiator hoses? Lovely z man. Got a black 89 turbo myself.
Since you have an exhaust cutout valve, could you show us a video of your exhaust system for reference and to compare to other systems like the one ETCG has on his Turbo Fairmont?
Damnn sweet build brotha 🔰
Class is finally back in session! ☺
my goal is to make my z as nice as yours, this thing is next level
Awesome job sir!
beautiful build
Great job project coming along. Tuning graph looks linear, by the way, could tell me what type T3/T4 turbo i.e. manufacturer model number or part number? This information will go along way for my project.
50trim T04B i believe, Garrett compressor housing
You know I have a completely different car, but I had no idea fucking with the throttle body and ECU to make the car run correctly and have a little more power was tuning. I thought it was just fixing. I guess I'm a half baked tuner now! 😂
Man! I cant wait to megasquirt my z, did you do aything to the head like springs and retainers? and did you do anything to the bottom end or is it still stock rods and pistions?
Upgraded valve springs to go with cams, stock bottom end
@@TurbochargedCreations you didn't gap the rings? Or Was yours a turbo from the factory? I'm getting ready to do the same thing starting this spring but mines Non turbo, for now. Great build, looks awesome!
Nice build. Which spark plugs are you using and what do you have them gapped at? I'm going to run Nistune with 750cc injectors and 20lbs of boost on my 84 AE. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
NGK BKR7E at 0.025, tuner recommended both that plug and gap, no issues
Great. I'll try those out when I change my mine. Why did you choose Megasquirt over Nistune? I purchased Nistune with an 88 non turbo ECU and a 93 Mustang Cobra MAF. I haven't installed it yet and wondering if I should. I've owned a z31 for over 25 years and I'm learning a lot from your channel. I admire your passion. Thanks again.
@@charlespickett5397 Nistune will get the job done, but lack of modern features and questionable reliability
Thanks. Did you change the base fuel pressure? If so, what did you increase or decrease it to? I'm going to be running 750cc injectors. Also did you advance or retard the timing for 20psi boost? Thanks again for your experience.
@@charlespickett5397 You need to get it tuned professionally
Dude....you're Canadian! It's a "zed"31. Lol. Nice build. I've been on the look out for a 2 seater manual. Did you swap the manual trans in? I only ever see the turbos in automatic in this country. I'm in Toronto and dont see many Z31s on the road at all.
It was manual non turbo when i got it, swapped to turbo, im in Toronto aswell, i see them from time to time
AMAZING
how did you get the engine bay so neat? i have an 85 and it looks like trash, could you help me out sometime?
Possibly getting a Z sometime this month i havent had one since 2015 😁
What cars can you beat with this setup? Scat packs, 5.0 mustangs, 350z's. What was the cost of the whole build too.
I can beat anything still on jack stands and soccer moms grand caravans
So whats the tune i wanna steal it running nistune . i got almost same set up just vg33er fresh build engine on fully built heads. 7200 rpm T3t4 hybrid.
Corey Engle you can’t really run the same tune on every engine and have it work the same. Especially when running different engine management setups
There is alot of base tunes for the aet up i have. I cant get any shop around to tune sosomething close i can tweak it no Z?
Yes it can be tuned to get the same power as long as the setup is close to the same. Or you have another know setup that produces the same power. With that any tuner can tune the power out of it. Otherwise you end up missing some power or detonating because your car has small differences or big once depending on the setup.
If you can’t find anyone though yes with some detcans to listen for knock and a wideband you can get a good street tune. But you won’t get maximum power without a dyno tune.
Nice ride alot attention to detail, curious as to what ignition system you running since there's no distributor or wires in sight, and did vg33 swap on my d21 hard to hide anything out of sight due to location of what's trying to be hid, but very nice peace pretty sure it's taken some time to get to that stage, especially if its your daily driver.
Ls coils
How much money have you put in the car all together?, i’m looking to mod one up myself
So comprehensive
Nice project pro but, isn’t better an ls swap ? By the way i have 300zx 1985 ls1 swap 327 hp 344 tq with air intake 4 in and magnaflow exhaust 2.5 in .
Very clean build sir. Go with a 58 or 62mm turbo for a lot more power potential. Also do you have E85 in your area? It's a total game changer if you can swing it.
Yup thats the plan! No e85 in the area so thats a no
How’d you reseal the weatherstripping on your car
What cams are you running?
Hi, i see that you have deleted some parts under the hood. Those things you deleted, where those restrictions? I just put 550 cc injectors and nistune in mij (euro spec)87 turbo but i can't get it to idle properly. And the car runs sometimes rich and the other time lean. Could you help me a bit? I haven't driven my Z really yet and have the car for 3 years now. Thx in advance
What head gaskets are you using?? and how well do they hold up to the high boost?
Hey I have a stock z31 na how can get a tune on it
What kind of wheels are those?
How much would it cost to do me one like that?
Did tony tune it?
What turbo your running
what wheels are those?
If you had to ballpark the cost of everything you did under the hood to get these numbers how much do you think you spent. I'm looking to get around the same numbers out of my z someday and want an idea of how much I need to spend
$5k-10k easily. Ive got about $8k into mine so far.
I notice when you put it on reverse... Your rear center light 🚦 didn't work. It's that by choice?
Rear center light does not light up on any z31 models
@@TurbochargedCreations
Then I'm assuming the two lights it has aluminate the license plate?
@@dxraaaaa Yes correct, the headlights werent on at the time so they did not light up
@@TurbochargedCreations
Your center rear brake light located on your wing doesn't work?
@@TurbochargedCreations Hello... I got your next perfect 👌 video 📹 idea 💡
I searched UA-cam and no one has a Z31 video on changing the headlight or upgrading them to HID lights. You can be the first to make a video on that subject 👌
Where did you get your spoiler ??
OEM 88 turbo wing
Where are the pulls? Good video but lacked the most vital part. Ugh my instagram is jonaaa_12. I have bits of my 86. Isky Cams, springs, ferrea valves, clutch dxd, etc. She was a dime
Wonder if they'll tune my stock na z31.
Only if you have a tunable ecu
Great work, but it seems like a lot for 300hp
The turbo is just too small
Have to agree. One guy was running 320 HP on the stock ECU and the JWT kit got you 450 HP. Was it necessary to megasquirt it and convert to distributorless ignition?
Its all about expandability and features. The distributorless ignition doesnt add power, it just modernizes and cleans up the engine bay. I cant stress enough that the turbo absolutely could not keep up it was very limiting and is the main cause of the final numbers. As for the OP, the horsepower was closer to 350, not 300
@@TurbochargedCreations I agree about ms. It's the bees knees. You're approaching the breaking point of vgs so 350 should be fun for awhile. A good tune goes a long way.
@@lstz31 Ring lands reportedly start breaking off stock vg30e/et engines just shy of 500whp. I heard about a factory sealed w2 series vg30e NA2T hitting 700whp but cannot confirm. He's not close yet.
Name of the track?
Description has links
Yo this z31 looks really nice. with all mods..
No T belt cover yikes btw
That FI system ,turbo , can get it confiscated and you in prison
Nice Z👍... but the VG is no RB or 2JZ!!!!
Cool story bro
Yeah it's better than the RB and just as strong as the 2J.
gaddam!
