Jakes LQ9/T-56/GT-47 turbo S13.5
I bought my car back in 2006 ran a SR20 for a while then in 2010 swapped in a 6.0 LQ4 with cam and bolt-ons went 11.5 at 125mph the first time at the track. I drove it for a year or so before my most recent build up with:
LQ9/317 heads/224 cam/ ARP bolts Built T-56 Garrett GT-47 Q45 rear with 30 spline axles 6-pt cage New fuel system Tubed front end [/quote] After some fiberglass and sanding [/quote] Cam only Jakes Lq4 240sx dyno - YouTube Cam only with bolton results [/quote] Then this After a bit of work: Welded v-bands on my flipped truck manifolds This merge pipe was fun Finally got it (Dont mind the Harbor freight flux core temporary welds) Bringing it across (ended up about 1/4" from my crank pulley) Mocking it up Time for nice welds And here she sits [/quote] Fluid was like new, with no metal on the magnetic plug Also welded in 1/2 of my roll cage. |

YES YES YESSS!!!!
I'm a LSx man at heart and grew up on small block Chevys way before I discovered my first 240sx. I bought a sr20 and have gotten pretty deep with a large Precision turbo and big boost, but I know it's only a matter of time before I go this route. (Hopefully turbo LS2) I'm looking forward to some updates. This is common in other chassis, but just not so common with the 240sx crowd. I take it your a weekend warrior at the drag strip? |

Love it!! I have been tossing around the idea of a 5.3L Turbo setup. But I am not a quarter mile guy (once in a while). Sounds like an NA setup would work for me (like your LQ4 setup). There is nothing like the sound of a V8 Great job man! I am looking forward to more updates on this build as she goes for sure!

Thanks guys,
Im definately not a drag only guy, ive done my fair share of sliding and still do. On the Turbo LSx s13 I have recently put in a Walbro 400lph pump, Q45 solid mounted diff with 30 spline axles and hubs, 1/2' feed and return fuel lines, modified the front "Power brace area" setup with box tubing. Yesterday I was building up the new motor with ARP bolts, cam, melling oil pump, heads, and valvetrain. Got a built tranny also This is my Daily Driver S14 with LS1/t56 |

this is cool shit. im not a huge fan of throwing a turbo to it, but still cool none the less.

I havent take my S14 to the track yet but, a guy I know has a s14 ls1 that's bone stock even with stock manifolds, and he broke into the 11's. But he has a ton of passes on it, I would say low 12's consistently.

I am looking forward to getting out there and getting to the fab stuff. I run a welding shop in the military, so I have access to some cool tools and a damn good welding specialist as well Thanks for the inspiration!

You can use a DBC setup....I have my LS6 intake using an eBay bracket and 00 LS1 throttle. I'm using a 411 PCM which is DBC and Wiring Soecialities Harness which are both setup for DBC.
