That would be excellent, but the VQ sounds so good... I wouldn't change it.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

who gives a fuck what it sounds like, when it goes like stink

 

[blakbearddelite]

Ooh, an LSX 350z would definitely be awesome!

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

I really want to do an LSX swapped car in the next couple years. Id prefer to find something already done with a blown motor, or a car with a cage and suspension finished, to save some money. I could pick up an old 240sx or rx7 for some pocket change though.

Turbo Z > lsx Z

stick to stuff with shitty engines.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

bmx, have you seen the lsx WRX yet?

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Yep. Also saw the video where the diff blows up

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

Haha, havent seen that yet! I just ran across it on LS1tech a couple weeks back. About every 10 posts was telling him the diff was gonna go really quick.

turboing the Z is retarded imo unless you plan on going retarded with it....ive seen waaaaaay too many guys put down like 400rwhp and get slapped around by way lesser cars. i have no desire to turbo my car unless i'm building the engine for 600+hp....im curious how much money vogz has sunk into his car....i do like his setup very much actually.

Yea r160 is weak. R180 may hold up but that's still alot of torque for it. R200 is a hard swap but it'll take the abuse. I think it comes on supras.

It actually sounded like an easy enough swap.... Too bad it's quite nose heavy.

Oh yea cause lsx swap is much less retarded.

 

[Mook]

didnt say i would do one

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Is the VQ not very strong stock? Seems like that maxima guy was doing alright though it's probably alot lighter.

 

[Mook]

vq can boost up to about 450wheel but then ure pushing it, alot. rods go bye bye.

from what ive read, its also not very cost effective to build a vq n/a...but i'm only going by other forum member builds...seems the vq is pretty stout from the factory tho...the crank and whatnot can handle 600hp and beyond. maybe that number has changed since last year.

 

[Mook]

vogz or maxima guy, correct me if im wrong. i havent really kept up w/ vq builds this year

neal...god i'm horrible w/ names

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

So 400whp is still slow? I'd stay stock..... Well some small bolt ons are cool.

I think 400whp is impossible with just bolt ons with that motor. I could be wrong, but I don't see it happening.

 

[Mook]

400 na maybe w/ a ton of spray. people have a hard enough time cracking 300 to the wheels

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

400 with an lsx motor and bolt ons is a pretty big feat even... excluding the ls7

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

When did I say 400hp with bolt ons?

I was asking about 400hp being slow as mook stated.

Then I said I'd stay stock; well maybe a few bolt ons.

Turk sucks at reading.

 

[Mook]

all the vids ive seen w/ 400whp, the guys are getting shitstomped by stage 2 srts, gtos, 10 speed bikes, you name it...

turbo would be fun, but its not something i would want to do on the Z
