Hey there Zilvia, my names tyler and i decided to make a built thread on my 240sx. but first ill give you a little back ground on how the car got to were it is today. i picked up the s14 back in november hoping to get into drifting, and to possibly built it for that puprose-
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/IMG_0609.jpg

and it already had a slant top SR20det in it, along with stance coilovers with energy bushings, greddy FMIC, WORK Meister S2 rims, Z32 brake/hub conversion, the body kit thats on the car, and i believe that is all. As i started getting used the the RWD, i started getting more into drifting, so i got a Kaaz 2 way LSD, a sparco fighter, sparco deap dish suede wheel and hub, a defi "den" (amber) and a few other things im probably forgeting. and then i broke the front bumper into multiple pieces-
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/vdfb.jpg

so i fixed it :)-
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/sssss.jpg

after that i decided i needed some new spacers and studs to make the car sit right and it turned out pretty good-

a few weeks go by and hurray me! i broke a rocker arm! -____-
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/dsfvs.jpg

and that was the last time I've driven my car (about 5 and a half months). at first i thought about just doing a small build, gt28r, new exhaust manifold, cams, springs, rocker arm stoppers, new actuator, ARP head studs, you know, little things-

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/mg.jpg

then i got to realizing, well i dont want my bottem end to blow! so i should built that too, and then i got talked into a stroker kit from BC... along with some other goodies-

not a bad idea for a drift car, more torque, more reliability. then some time passed and redline time attack was in vegas for an event. and my buddy had completed his EVO VIII for the purpose of time attack, long story short, his block blew because of a fucked up fuel line (LEAAAAAN).

i soon realized that i did NOT want to built this motor twice and retired it from drifting, before it was to late. fortunatly for me, CP was taking their damn time with my over sized pistons (still havent come in 4 months later). so i decided while the car was down, to do a COMPLETE build on the engine. Darton sleeves, full nasty Portflow head (extensively ported, beryllium copper seating, polished, full spring/rocker arm/valves etc.), Full-Race Ramhorn exh. manifold (t4 flange), PTE6262 DBB billet wheel turbo (.82 A/R), greddy intake manifold, 70mm (or so) throttle body, FULL steel braded lines win an fittings, an FCON V-PRO version 3.3, twin in tank denso fuel pumps with a custom hat, ID2000 injectors, all to run on E-85. of course this isnt the full list, but you get the idea.

sorry these are all the pictures i have so far, the block is not back from sleeving yet, and the head is still out too. as for the rest of my parts they are all going to be shipped out at the same time. and supposidly my exh. manifold is done with coating and on its way back.

then i took into consideration my trans/clutch/DS... luckily for me, the man building my car (Mike Angel) is friends with the owner the retaks 240sx, who just switched to V8 power. so he talked them into selling me their brand new Z32 trans, driveshaft shop chromoly drive shaft, starter, adapter plate, and spec stage 3 clutch. out with the old, in with the new-

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/hah.jpg
(this probably is not all i have done, i tried my best to remember what ive done in what sequence)

so that is where we are at now, i have plans after the drivtrain is complete to go widebody, get a new body kit, paint the car, get new rims, brakes, and cage the interior blah blah blah. so check in and see what the latest is with the car. ill update it as it happens :)

Pretty impressive. I can't wait to see the engine put back together.

what size and CR are these pistons?

^^ Yes. Do high comp too! Build will be the sickness

Looking great. Should be a beast, esp with Mikey building and tuning it.

S14_Kouki

Should of done a vet head, im lovin the turbo you picked.

JDM Sil4ty

07-03-2010, 12:48 PM

yes. im lovin the way you chose to go. gl

HouseElf

07-03-2010, 03:23 PM

thanks for the support guys. the compression i believe is 9:1, and im pretty sure the bore is 89mm, but i left all that up to miky and what he wanted to do with it.

and i agree with you on the vet head, but i didnt consider that until the head was already shipped out...

btw everything that is being taken off the car is for sale, including the gt2871r (brand new, DBB), tomei manifold (also brand new, in box), sr20 trans, exedy triple puck clutch, stcok driveshaft, greddy springs, stock crank, stock pistons and rods, etc. so let me know if you need anything and ill let you know if i have it, or give pricing. more updates to come later, along with new pictures

looking forward to seeing this engine completed. Looks very promising!

bllabong89

07-06-2010, 08:37 AM

^^^^Agreed, this will be a good build...soundin good so far and I love the holes in the turbo intake. Are you going to putting a velocity stack on or going with an intake? It always looks sick to have a nasty turbo with a nice billet velocity stack :)

07-06-2010, 05:57 PM

oh wow, you did some valvetrain work too?

do you have an idea of what it's going to redline at?

HouseElf

07-06-2010, 06:03 PM

lol no i will not be using a velocity stack, just an intake to keep it safe haha

yes i pretty much made the head bulletproof, the head should be capable of like 10+, but with the stroker i will probably just have it redline at 8 or 8.5, no need for much more with how the gears will be.

thanks for the kind words guys

Looks like you got a hell of a project there; GL with it. A side note about that Tomei manifold. I've had two on my engine and one was replaced due to excessive warping; thank you Tomei, but I might suggest separating the runners; the last time I had my new one off it was already warped some... Also if you're using the 7 layer gasket, I drill out the center rivet b/c it falls under the flange face.

Side note... those wheels are terrible...

sweet,almost the same setup as me,except im 90mm with fully built ve head...cant wait to see the dyno!!!!!

HouseElf

07-09-2010, 06:36 PM

like i said the tomei manifold is for sale, i have a full-race header coming in with a t4 flange. as for the work rims i dont like them all that much either, but they came on the car so i cant complane, but i have a set that ill be getting when i get over fenders that a buddy of mine has.

ross- 90mm what?? i need more detail man thats a huge tease! what are you making on what parts??

HouseElf

07-09-2010, 07:40 PM

take that back, just did some research, you mean a 90mm combustion chamber on your VE head right? still would love to know what your making

HouseElf

07-15-2010, 12:21 AM

ross your car sounds like it will be super nice! your so lucky you live in florida man, id love the extra free horsepower :( haha. im excited to see what you make!

kalypos- im actually putting it back on haha

UPDATE- it has been a VERY good week for me and the build. stroker kit is finally in, aswell as my injectors! the stroker i have been waiting a good 5 months to show up, and im supprised the injectors showed up as quick as they did. on top of this great news, the darton sleeves should be in the block by tomorrow, the head should be back very soon, and the full race manifold SHOULD be done getting coated, and in by friday. so the build pretty much went from looking like it would never be done, to it should be done fairly soon.

wow that's alot of $$$

EXACTLY what i was going to say. hope the whole car gets as much attention as the engine is.

HouseElf

07-15-2010, 11:22 PM

yeah the body will get its turn, that is if i stay with it, im not crazy about the 96 being obd2, may start looking for a 95 or older shell, (but stay s14) to go obd1. then that will start getting attention while i drive the current set up, then when the shell is done getting its body work/paint, ill transfer all the parts over so the car is down for days rather than months.

HouseElf

i decided to hold off on posting for a while until something actually happened. and then it did, got my block back in about a week ago, then got it honed (sp?).

we primered the block

then painted it

then we started assembling the short block

unfortunatly we had undersized bearings and needed to over night some, but the short block will be assembled by the end of the week. other items for the block will be in soon, build is coming together nicely :)

08-12-2010, 06:23 PM

Looking good so far! I am curious to see how you like this set up. I was debating between a 350hp build on my SR and the LS1 swap and went with the LS1 (which still isn't finished >_<). Good luck and keep up the steady progress!

supervenom

08-13-2010, 12:25 AM

Man, that is a very nice engine set up bro. Well thought out. Nice way to reach for your goal. You should have engine enough to make massive amounts of power. You made the right choice by going with the z32 tranny. No need to take a chance with the stocker.

I cant wait to see it finished. Im sure the wait will be worth it. Keep us posted.

HouseElf

08-13-2010, 11:59 AM

thanks for all the possitive feedback guys, i love seeing what others have to say about the build! some good news, head should be back from portflow today aswell as my new oversized bearings, so if all goes well the block should be reassembled, (with the exception of all the head components). ill make sure to take plenty of pictures!

HouseElf

i guess the throttle body kind of counts for aftermarket, its a N15 70mm from the pulsar.

i also got in my JWF top feed feul rail the the ID2000's. but i didnt take a picture because it is just a piece of billet lol.

oh yeah one more thing-

the short block is now almost completely done, all i need is my arp main studs, the oem are in for the time being, but will be replaced as soon as the arp studs are in.

and of corse Mikey had to write something on my pistons, in this case just a few words of advice :)
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/2010-08-13_20-58-46_835.jpg

damn rocker arms hahah, in time this head will be replaced due to the rpm limiters, but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

smelly240

08-14-2010, 08:37 AM

you have to get the block re-aligned if you put ARP mains in... If it was Aligned with stock mains - you gotta run stock mains - or get it redone.

the studs pull differently on the caps and screws things up... plus u gotta either grind the oil pan or th estud on the back 2.

Remember - it only takes 1 thousandth Out of Round to cause a crank to bind.

you do have to watch out for your rocker arms,but i think hes referring to your pistons speeds.when doing a stroker you have to calculate your safety margin piston speed so you dont over sress your sidewalls.thats the big problem with stroking unless you go with a custom short piston and long rod combo...lookin good man...your pockets have got to be hurtin,o know mine are!!

Master Chief

08-14-2010, 10:58 AM

Very nice build - thumbs up for taking a chance on the BC stroker kit - always thaught about giving it a try, over the other kits on the market.

Good luck with the Sleeves install - who did the machine work and install ?
What bore are you runing there ?

Also, didnt see you mentioned it - but you did GAP the rings, right ? With CP - this is a must, especialy if you are going for big power.
Did you use a torque plate honing and boring the cylinders and for gaping the rings ?

As for the head, i would recomand, while you are at this stage, going the extra mile and going for a solid lifter conversion and double valve springs.
Those SuperTech valves (looks like supertech), are really thin especially on the intake, and they wont react nicely to a broken rocker arm.
The problem would be with hitting the limmiter above 7500.

P.S: You wrote the rods are H beam. Those are actualy I beam.

Good luck !!!

I'm watching this thread as there are not too many people using stroker kits and I'd like to see how it turns out (and ask questions as they come up).

I was toying with the idea of getting a HKS or Tomei kit when I head out to Japan next year (So that gives me a lot of time to figure out if I want to run on, and what would be involved or not).

Anyways thanks for keeping us posted.

HouseElf

08-18-2010, 09:52 PM

thanks for all the comments guys, glad to see people enjoying the build. but please lets leave it at that, and let mikey do his thing.

but no i will not be going solid lifters this round, that will happen in time though.

we changed out the oem throttle cable for this one, looks much better, and fits perfectly.
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/547836015_photobucket_14840_.jpg

the Jim Wolf fuel rail came with some very strange mounts, that didnt work at all lol. so our fabricator managed to make some new ones, that look a ton better, and actually work.

we put the FPR in a nice location that is pretty hidden, but very easy to see and read if you know where it is.
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/dobbscp/547836015_photobucket_14843_.jpg

there are a ton of other things that have happened, just no pictures of them yet. i was very close to going solid lifters, but did the next best thing, not really at liberty to say what, but it sould work out fairly well.

when i first bought the car it had an oil filter relocation kit on it, it had fake AN fittings on it and a VERY small oil filter, so we relocated that along with the GREX oil cooler underneath the passenger side front end, next to the intercooler. we also got a new filter mount that is AN fitted, and it now has a supra filter (and fits 90% of other filters lol)

i am also in the prosses of fixing the front bumper, painting the WORK S2 rims, wet sanding and buffing the paint, as well as restoring the front head lights (done and they look much better)

i also put in the new 3 inch sparco 4 point harness, i had a 2 inch before but decided i needed to upgrade. although i dont have a harness bar or a cage for that matter, i mounted the harness anyway. i know its not safe, but i needed something there.

im sure im forgetting some big things, but ill update if i remember.

well tomorrow we start cleaning up all of the wireing, setting up the coil pack wireing and getting it ready for the HKS DLI. aswell as wireing the ID2000 injectors. then the Fcon vpro 3.3 will go in.

we also still have to finish fabricating the vband downpipe, making the tial waste gate fit ( for some reason the full race manifold has the wastegate pointing strait at the brake booster, so we have to make a pipe to re route it down) then a dump pipe for it. after that all of the intercooler piping needs to be made.

there is a few other things after that regarding the suspension etc.

ill update it as it happens.

thanks guys its a lot of fun. we went to some meets tonight to maybe find a race. ended up racing a turbo civic making like 550 and had slicks. i was on waste gate, granny shifting, had no timing, and bad tires. i stretched him by about 6 cars, let off for about 2 seconds, then started slowly braking. long story short i guess he was "coming for me" so we decided to not make him pay. blah blah blah.

also got a r35 in 2nd and 3rd :D and he was NOT happy lol

quick video of me playing with my friends widebody nsx. no traction in second at all, half throttle third, let off early in 4th. if you want to see it just go on my youtube, mods wont let it on zilvia, so fallow the link the my account.

Waaaaay ahead of you there buddy :D traded the block for some custom 20v ti retainers which had to be custom made ( the guy I'm getting them from had to buy 10 sets to get one set made from supertech ) because the p12 and p11 valve stem diameters are different as well as the valves, pistons and rods I sold for $100, full trans swap sale is pending, and the header/dp combo is getting a ton of hits...people are just hard up on cash right now...as I am because I bought the whole car lol but hey I got what I wanted and in the end I'll come out close to even.:snoop:

I just put them tires on the back of my s14. No more traction problem for me!!! No I have a boggin problem....

hahah im stoked to try these out! i have no idea what traction in this car feels like.

once my brake booster is replaced i will have more updates, and videos for everyone, so stay tuned!

i wanna ask one thing sorry off topic but will get some knowledge on sr20s ..what rpm is pte6262 turbo gonna spool coparing 2.0l vs 2.3 just wanna know what rpms earlier itll gonna spool up

HouseElf

02-05-2011, 02:09 AM

you would have to ask someone who had a build 2.0l with a 6262, and then stroked it while keeping att the same components. there are to many variables, tuner being the biggest, ive seen 6262's spool at the same time as GT28R's. aslo depending on fuel type, cams, intake manifold, exh. manifold, headwork it will be different. so in my personal experience i couldnt answer that question for you.

ke70 sr20det

02-05-2011, 03:28 AM

at what rpms your turbo spools because your running 2.4 and yes is it still 8k motor with this stroker ....2.0l is like spool up near 5000~5500rpms just wanna cee the difference of lag and rev thats y i was comparing it

I would be stoked on that power band since I plan to rev to 9k thats a plenty big power band.

a good amount of money to say the least, but i work at the shop that built it so a lot of the parts and labor where discounted.

well we ran a little late to the dyno today due to a fuel pump failure (replaced with an 044), and had to spend most of our time re-tuning the FCON for the DLI and the boost a pump. Unfortunatly this lead to not having enough time to do full boost run on the dyno, best run of the day was a 720whp pull at 30psi (not bad considering it was about 40 degrees hotter today than last time it was on the dyno).

I also got a new boost controller, must say i realllllly like it! if you dont know the functions of this controller i would recommend checking it out. some really cool features (about $700 worth of cool features lol)

Man just FYI nismo motor mounts sit the sr 1.5" up.... Get rid of those things, they just play suck for fitment. Try the driftfreq engine mounts, you'll be happy and a engine torque dampner.

the nismo motor mounts are already in and work exactly how i had wanted them too. not too stiff, the avid mounts i had before were way too stiff, the car was vibrating itself apart...

and its just flat black spray paint

06-09-2011, 06:50 AM

I agree on the avid mounts - they are just blocks of aluminum with a condom over a bolt going through them. The nismos sit considerably lower than the avids - I just pulled my motor to send to mazworx to get 90mm sleeve action - so meanwhile this other motor (2.0 mahle/eagle) is goin in with nismo mounts...

I like the brace you have on the IC pipe - we had wiggens clamps on the wall in the showroom - so we put those things on my car. Now every kid that walks in wants them on his pipes - THEY SAT COLLECTING DUST FOR A YEAR ON THAT WALL :D

torque dampers dont work good with top mount turbos btw... the bushings inside melt

the ones that look like a shock and bolt to the shock tower - slider2828 recommended it - They're a bandaid for having crappy mounts.

We have similar braces to yours that we have hangin on the wall - i contemplated those when we redid my piping for wiggens clamps - but my coworker that does the aluminum wanted to try the "purple thingys"

this body kit will only be on the car until it gets painted. trust my id rather be stock aero, but the guy before me painted it this the skirts on, so its purple under the skirt. after the car gets shot im re-doing all of the exterior, and i mean ALL of it. i wouldnt even bother fixing the front bumper if I didnt have good reason to. but it will be worth it in the end. then the real fun starts

Give us a number, how much has this build cost you so far?

This is the most legit build I've seen. I'm curious though, why didn't you go RB26?

im not sure how much i have into this car, but it is way too much haha. And to be honest i would have never chosen to do an RB, if i would have done a motor swap it would have either done a 3.4L 2JZ or a 04 cobra modular V8 (built and turbo'd). but i decided to keep the SR and do some cool things with that.

You realize on paper the power to weight ratio beats a veyron considerably! By almost a pound per horse at factory weights! That's insane!

OMG! I Have been planning to start a build quite similar to this started googleing SR23DET up pops this amazing thread about a build almost exactly as I planned it pulling numbers way higher than I ever would have expected out this little 4 and it still has more to go IT RAN OUT FUEL! That has got to be awesome when someone says "hey how much she dyno at?" "She put down 730hp it would've been more but my double 255 fuel pump setup couldn't keep up!" You have just blown my mind! I am now totally stoked about my stroked build!!!! All I can say is WOW!!!

thank you sir, good luck with your build!

Right on, those numbers are stupid! :Ownedd:

i plan on doing that very soon lol

I completely understand. I can't even drive my car on the street s. So just being able to drive it is a hassle. And my tc doesn't tow well :-)

If your interested in parting it out, I know someone who would be interested.
Sad to see it go. Glws

yeah its a shitty feeling having so much money in a car that you cant enjoy everyday, hopefully someone will snag it up who can enjoy it the way it deserves to be enjoyed.

and honestly i will miss adding to the thread, im sure i will have some last updates though as i am finishing the car to sell it.

on a side note, what do the people that have actually fallowed the build think that this car should be sold for?

F20cS13

11-21-2011, 09:37 PM

From looking what you put into, probably less then half.
Its a terrible tragedy to see what the car is truly worth, and realize the market is worth about half that.
I'm gonna go for a stretch, but I would say $12-14?
That's why I don't rhimk I could ever sell the s13k, I would get 15-20% of the true value of the car. Do you know j. Guild? (Red ls s14/ yellow SR s14) I know he's trying to get his yellow SR going if you have any s14 parts etc.

Lol thats what I was explaining. I think I might end up doing the same. Hard to sell your $30k+ car for $10k.

Are you completly done driving the car? Or will you still take it out to events? I know F.Wang is having a bbq at their shop in a couple of weeks

its just sitting at the shop right now, still needs to get buttoned up. i may drive it every once in a while but for the most part i dont plan on driving it anymore.

HouseElf, insane result, that's inspiring! What would you say are keys to high-HP 4-banger build? I would think, good sleeves (for SR), BIG turbo, and other supporting mods like good intake manifold and "big" cams?

very good hah you answered your own question. don't forget though, you need to build the drivetrain and the rest of the car to be able to hold that power and put it to the ground properly. to many people go crazy on an engine build and don't build the rest of the car properly...end result, a half ass built car.

Ya, what are you doing transmission wise? (besides Clutch)
I am stroking my s14 Sr20DET to 2.3 also.
But I am doing it for reliability and not so much for HP. Looking to do around 350-400 maybe on a GT2871r... (fingers Crossed) I am building the bottom and top end to handle 500+ but am de-tuning it to be bullet proof...
I got a twin plate clutch but I am curious about what I can do for tranny options...
Don't want to spent multi-thousands for a trick tranny tho.... Any ideas? Comments?

just do a z32 trans setup...they are cheap to replace in the rare chance that you blow one or you can always do z33 trans setup. plenty of options if you really don't want to keep the sr trans.

I need to be able to use an S14 clutch. I already have a Blitz Twin Plate and I am not buying another clutch.... whew!

What is the benefit of going with a Z32/Z33 tranny? Gearing and strength?
I am putting this into a Datsun 510. Is there any difference to the length or girth? I do not want to widen my tunnel or make my shifter hole bigger.
With an adapter plate, can you still use the S14 Clutch?

OP, you had a Z32 tranny right? How was it on the street/highway/strip?

I agree with yellow4g63, you can easily search and find your answers. but since I am slightly bored and I know you probably wont search for it...yes, you can use an sr clutch. the reason I said to upgrade to a Z trans, is because it is an upgrade...no reason to tell you to go to a Z trans if it wont change anything, right? there are plenty of threads about the Z33 vs Z32 vs SR transmission and it shows how the gears from the Z transmissions are much stronger then an SR trans. there is no need to widen the tunnel at all, no one widens there tunnels when they do a vg, vq, rb, ect. swaps...so no, you will be fine. as for how it drives...its a stock trans, how bad do you expect it to be? the gearing isn't much different from an SR. Simple research can go along way and give you plenty of information to read up on to make the proper choice.
