    Do you daily drive a 240sx?

    If you do, how do you like it? Im thinking of tradeing/selling my black n/a for a 240 just so i can save some money on the gas for a bit while i finish my turbo project... and then hopefully keep the 240 while i go to school also... so if you drive a 240... give me your thoughts and opinions...

    safe boost level on stock ct w/ fuel and engine mods

    shouldnt he be able to do 13-15psi because of the IC, and the fact he has 3'' piping... seems like it would cool the hotter air.

    cam scaring??

    how would the timing belt tension have anything to do with that? thats just about metal on metal with DIRTY oil... a machine shop can polish those cams and make em look brand new (as they did mine just the other day) and the caps can be cleaned up with a piece of 1500 Grit sand paper. and...

    isnt that also in part due to you wanting the mid-length runners? if you had say... just the plenum welded to the lower intake mani, wouldn that clear? along with a Long runner setup would clear also wouldnt it? you just got the bastard child of the two that doesnt fit... haha

    could you solve that by dropping the motor in WITH the manifold installed??... although then i guess you couldnt get it out unless you took out the studs huh? wouldnt that be funny if you didnt catch that before...

    240z2jzgte lol...horse power questions....

    i dont see how you could get the datsun to weigh 2900 lbs... it comes stock with an inline 6. so replacing it with another inline 6 wouldnt do much... i dont think it would hit more than 2600LBS... given the trubo stuff adds a little weight... but not that much.. and if you were to gut it a...

    Ebay 7M FFIM

    i can sort of see the blending now that you mention it... looks good. and now that i think of how the EGR sits... i can see why you did it that way. and im guessing you have ALL of the OEM hooks ups so essentially all you did was get a "better" (being an understatement) OEM manifold then...

    Mid-length? how long are your runners? did he also include the EGR "tube" to go to the front of the FFIM? Wouldnt another option be to put it under the FFIM instead of on that side? just to hide it a little better. Or even in the middle of the FFIM underneath it?

    jdub, EGR gases cool the combustion mixture right? so in doing the EGR setup that way wouldnt you also have a "cooler" running car as its mixing with all of the air coming in? And if thats how seth makes his FFIM's. i know who im going to be talking to when it comes time for mine...
