Since ive posted this just about everywhere else....

The car is a Silver 2004 Nissan 350z that I bought in June and originally turbo'd and got bored with it within a few months which is why im doing the car now. I recently purchased an 05 LS2/t56 drop out with low miles. My original plans were to drop in a PTE 78 and do a custom front mount turbo system but after taking a **** load of measurements theres simply just not enough room without cutting the rad support and moving stuff around and I refuse to do a rear mount....so gonna stick with the old nitrous setup this year Next year after the car has been running for a while, ill most likely cut up the front end and turbo it. I dont have alot of pictures yet(there really isnt anything to take pics of yet)..but as everything starts coming along I will add pictures.

Im using the Hinson supercars swap kit along with his 1.875" long tubes into a custom exhaust ill be making. My plans for right now are just a decent size cam (238/240) a 200 shot and all supporting mods. My cars curb weight is 3188 and ill be removing a few lbs trying to get the car down to 3100 with the LS2 in(no a/c). Heres a few pic of the previous set up..and some of the new.


This is how the look of the car will remain. Clean and stock. No body kits, decals, underglows, ect...

 

some more...



Im using arp head studs, and arp 2000 rod bolts just for some extra safety

 

Well, while waiting for my stuff to get in I decided to roll my fenders. Now you can only roll the fenders so much before you run into issues with paint cracking...however in my case I want as much room as I possibly could. So my body guy told me to just roll them and do whatever I had to do and he will go in smooth, and repaint the quater panels. So I went to town with the fender roller completely flattening the fenders. If you notice on the pics the fender sticks out a little bit past the rear bumper. Thes either going to push that part back in a little bit or pull the bumper out..with how much pressure I put on the fender roller it seemed to slightly(2-3mm) pull the fenders out and actually looks really good. When I bring it to him hes going to see if he can get a few more out of it before getting into major body work..any little bit helps. Heres the pics:**sorry for the ****ty cell phone pics**



You can see how far up I folded them..I have big tires to fit back there haha

Here you can see what I was talkin about with the fender being pulled out a bit..

Heres the new *** view...it looks so much better with wheels/tires that actually fill the wheel wells..

 

twin disc

(it looks much nicer in person)

 

This is awesome.

 

thats exactly what i was gunna do with my wrecked 350 until i found out the frame was bent. this looks fantastic tho! goodluck!

 

I decided to convert the factory style returnless system to a full return system with an aeromotive FPR..it looks much better in there now.

 

sweet! any more details on future turbo setup?

 

amazing work my friend. i am very jealous i didnt do this to mine,

 

Edited one of your posts. Please look at the site rules regarding selling stuff.

 

oh sorry about that..I already sold it a while ago..I just copied and pasted that from another site.


Future turbo setup would consist of 6.0 truck manifolds forward facing to a front mount PTE78mm turbo. I had my fab. guy look at my car today and theres actually a lot more room than I originally thought to fit it up there.

 

that is pretty much what I was gonna say

 

wow i hope ur gonna get a vid up after its running this will be a very fun car

Interesting build...looking forward to the results. If I may ask why not go with a 3.8L stroker (or eqiuvalent) with a good turbo kit and Haltech or something. Seems like it would be much less work with similiar or better results. I suppose this route is possibly more cost effective. Curious to see the end result.
