    Default 1JZ into my 180sx

    hey guys... i spent a bit of time on toy mods while i was building my 1J 180sx, tho all the documenting i did was on nissansilvia.com... i'll post up the link to the thread on NS as it has all the info on it plus a lot of pics.

    the car is just about done, im just fitting the new body kit, panels and bonnet... more pics will be up in the next few days..

    enjoy..

    Awesome to see the 180sx is coming along and not NISSAN powered LOL , dont forget to take me for a spin when its done.

    What was the reasoning for the BOV placement ?

    The aim if possible is to place the BOV as close as possible to the throttle Butterfly ?

    Yours is the complete opposite

    yeah, got it done by the spastics out at fyshwick exhaust... i have no idea what he was thinking???? i didnt have a choice where to go either, as that is where ben took it.. im keen to get a Tial bov in the near future, so i'll move it then... im also annoyed that the water injection was plumbed in Before the cooler, not after.. will have to change that, but will probably just add another injector after the cooler....

    I've always wanted to put a supercharged 1uzfe into a 180sx.

    But that takes the cake for something nuts! I like!

    What do 180's weigh in at by the way?

    should weigh in at around 1250kg with this engine, which is about the same as with the SR20DET - my entire front end is fibre glass, so the weight i gained with the engine i think i will have lost by removing the heavy metal panels

    looks hot man, i would probably get the answer if i sat down and read all the posts but was if fun? because everything has swapped sides going from SR20DET to a 1JZ no?

    not disconnected, just not really flowing.... 7 psi for a 35R is like a small fart....
