Sneak Peek. LS1 S14 Turbo setup. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

blu808 · 01-26-2008, 08:27 PM

Well Since I am making a turbo kit for the Fc3s with Ls1 engines. I thought it would be nice of me to make one for the s14 ls1 guys as well. Here are some pre production shots.

T304 stainless manifold. Turbonetics t62/t04 with ??ar.
Should make around 550 whp on 6-7 psi. 750 whp on 13-15 psi with forged pistons and other junk.

Down pipe clearance.

hood clearance.

S14 intercooler, dp, and piping coming shortly.

And yes It fits the Ls1 Fc3s as well.

Please let me know if you would have interest in this kit for your car. Demand will base if we offer the kit for sale.

I'm just a wee tiny bit jealous lol. looks freakin sick luke. are both those swaps carb legal or did you not worry about that?

blu808 · 01-26-2008, 09:09 PM

I dont think the turbo setup will be carb legal. lol.

Gumballf355 · 01-26-2008, 09:15 PM

Wow, 750WHP would be good for an easy 200mph. You should really think about building a landspeed car for Bonneville Luke... I think you'd really enjoy that.

blu808 · 01-26-2008, 09:16 PM

I would love to do silver state classic, or land speed record, but i dont have any money. lol

tknbkthrsdy4anfg · 01-26-2008, 09:36 PM

Hey luke what do u have connecting the two manifolds? a flex pipe or something.

blu808 · 01-26-2008, 09:40 PM

No it is a mandrel bent piece of stainless tubing that goes from the dr side manifold to oval 2.5" tubing then connects to the pass side.

txrxs · 01-26-2008, 09:41 PM

Jesus, that's beast.

Gjohnson7 · 01-26-2008, 09:46 PM

That is Hottt!!!! I would definately pick one of those up for next setup. NICE!!!!!!!!

jussjepbrox · 01-26-2008, 09:47 PM

LS1+turbo OVERKILL NICE

DreamN · 01-26-2008, 09:50 PM

LoL Luke, well I know the turbo would definitely not make it CARB legal, but I was wondering if the stock swap was a CARB legal one?

blu808 · 01-26-2008, 09:50 PM

Thanks guys.

Gjohnson7: Does that mean you would be interested anytime soon?

Yes it is completely possible to make a ls1/ls2/ls7 swap legal into a any s chassis or rx-7

The blue car was originally built to carb specs. But since I sold my white race car, I have decided to build the blue (sleeper) rx-7 into my track/ mountain (thanks rivards) car.

DreamN · 01-26-2008, 10:07 PM

ahh I see. are you guys only limited to swaps in RX-7s and S-Chassis cars?

Ever consider sanding down or removing the GTO lettering and replacing it with a Silvia emblem? lol I know it's just bullshit cosmetics, but it'd be a nice touch and a good laugh.

florante rea · 01-26-2008, 10:10 PM

how much for turbo setup? really sick setup.

No I build everything from bikes, pro touring, drift cars, ls1 swaps, sr swaps, rb swaps, vq swaps, etc.

Check the fabrication thread for pics.

Anyways. I have a source on some carbon fuel rail covers that I can cut vinyl for if anyone wants.

I tend to keep the factory covers to showcase which motor it is since we are one of the pioneers of these swaps, and like to get people into the idea of a reliable, light, affordable engine.

that's awesome. The exhaust outlet looks cramped, it looks like you're gonna have to use really small piping..? or maybe hte picture is just deceiving.

HaNgTyMe · 01-27-2008, 12:38 PM

looks clean wouldnt mind havin on of those in my s14

blu808 · 01-27-2008, 12:45 PM

when is the turbo setup going to be complete man?

Z U L8R · 02-19-2008, 09:11 PM

good stuff man =] i was just thinking of this swap on the way home. but i don't think my pockets could afford a third obsession lol. plus i wouldn't be able to compete in import showdown if i had a v8 (even though q45's come with v8's.....pfft)

i give u much props. don't know if you know of Charlie over at Mazcare here in GA but he's doing a lot of ls1 swaps in his fc's, my shops across the street from him if u ever heard of him. i know the rx7 world pretty much everyone knows everyone lol steve kahn asked me to diag a car he was tuning once muahhahah i felt special lol.

anyways, ur doing a mighty fine job sir, keep up the good work

Dave =]

blu808 · 02-19-2008, 09:46 PM

Alex: Hit me up man. Almost ready for production.

Z= Thanks man. Yea it is hard to decide on which cars to build. lol. Good luck.

Ok now for an update on the turbo system.

I decided to make a cold air intake system for the turbo so it wont suck heat off of the radiator.

It is a K&N cold air intake tube from a chevy truck system.

Fits perfectly. Yes it took me about 3 hours to find an off the shelf tube that fit correctly. This will be included in the kit we will be offering.

Then I finished the intercooler piping, and mounted the huge turbonetics blow off valve.

Then onto the turbonetics racegate.

After a few hours of finding the best location. Here it is. All tacked up. T304 stainless.

Looks like business.

Easy adjustment.

Clears the hood with 2+ inches to spare.

This kit is shaping out to be a great fit for the car. I think it adds some personality as well.

Thats it for now. I will post more pics later.

300hp owen · 02-20-2008, 06:49 AM

personality?
hahahha, yeah, like the HUGE PERSONALITIES we all know Dolly Parton for!

sick shizzle, that would be an insane setup for the street or track, wow. Ive driven a 450whp n/a LS1FC and if that spun 335s out back, then I cant imagine how the hell you'd even put that turbo to good use on the street without Rcomps and major suspension work... wow.

Ninjabread · 02-20-2008, 07:25 AM

Wow nice work Luke!

Meziere water pump?
