Nice!

finally took some pics of the enigne in.. now just the loose part needs to fitted.. should run next weekend.. 😀 been a long time! wow i miss the feeling of turbo cars.. painted the block with custom black, enginebay painted.. so everything should look shiny when done

will update soon when almost finished

Looks really good. Nice work. Let us know how it runs 🙂

Got small amount of work in this weekend by putting propshaft on and the intake on and boost pipe and routed the harfness and putting the injectors and rail on..
During the week should finish up with putting the turbo and manifold and boost pipe and wastegate ect..

Cool....hope all goes well...I had a few goodies planned for my Z....but then the sx happened....so my Z will stay as is for now.....

okay so got the zr up and running.. and wow what a response in throttle.. got lag up until 4000rpm start boosting but goes instant 0.7bar.. shifting gears spins till 3rd with intermediates on 😮 was surprised with the performance i guess around 350rwhp.. need to run it in now. and then boost 1.0bar.. 😀 cant wait

😮 😀

Cool....we must meet sometime.....

I also use a ajusa head gasket and ARP bolts on my RB30DET, and it holds up fine to 1.2 bar. They have gone 1.5 bar on those gaskets, with RB30. (R550 from masterparts)

adjuza works wonders, we all used them on the 7m's. Even up to 2bar boost they hold. 😉 Just one thing, don't use the manual's torque settings, it's way way too low.

Hey dude sorry to hear of your misfortune

I had simmilar problems with a 7MGTE

If your intrested you can buy my 7mgte bottom end ( 2 melted arias pistons 4 still in good nick), R154 supra G/box, flywheel, 2x heads with
cams 3x sets of tappet covers , 2x turbo manifolds, 2x intakes with throtle
bodies, 1 x distributor modified to use hall sensor PLUS A SET OF ARP headbolts.

PM me, its a bargain.

Sorry to hear that Venom, hope you can get it sorted soon.

Seems murphy is having his fun again....don't worry, you will be boosting soon....

After removing the head and found the gasket blew on numerous places, ive opted for a Ajusa steel headgasket.. after months of search for one found one lol 🙂 now just need my ARP studs then i can assemble again..

Soon boosting 1.0bar 😉

some parts i got to help lol, hope this time it wouldnt blow headgasket

Awesome, I hope you can get it running strong again soon.

thanx buddy.. now to get the boost controller from Reece.. and turn up the boost 😈

So i bought the controller from Reecez going to assembly the head and get it running this weekend if all goes to plan.. 🙂
