What happened with this in the end @Ortega_9?

Mans gapping hard

Anyway the vid is good.

Glad to see someone has retained the VQ motor and not swapped it like they do there

Sorry fat finger moment, please can moderators move to general 350z chat

Post up videos!

I had the same setup

 

 

Had to adapt when I fitted an oil cooler

 

 

 

 

I don't have a pic of the APS sump but that had a top return which I used for the V2, the reason they say to drill the upper sump is because it's a gravity return and it won't work if the return is below the oil level, if you have an after-market sump and can get the return above the oil line you will be fine - or I'm talking bollox - which is a possibility to be fair  

 

 

Yeah I've got an oil cooler which has its lines running on the oil filter sandwich plate. Also the APS sump you mention for the return line, it's already plumbed in which should be easier.

What kind of modifications did you do to get the oil pressure sender, the hoses may get in the way. Otherwise people are saying get a triple sandwich plate for the feed line? It's better to take it from the oil pressure sender?

I'm running my feed from a T piece at the oil pressure sensor. My return I've got going back to a tap in point on my aam competition pan spacer. Really didn't want to drill the block. I've had no issues with this set up, although I've only been charged less than a month  I don't think I got any photos, but will double check once I'm at my desk 

A pic would be great and or the t-piece you used.

I've got a replica aps sump http://www.airpowersystems.com/350z/sump/sump.htm same as this without the aps logo. It has two ports for feed & return. I run a V3 so I have one blanked and my oil temp sensor fitted into the other one. 

 

I've got the same sump but i'm not sure if you can take the feed line from there for a V2.

Are you going for a bigger blower? 

I still don't think people have pushed the V3 SCi trim to what its able to do.....

Yeah thats right going bigger. I been overspinning mine above & beyond, 1.1 bar. 530bhp+. SCI (si impeller)

New "axel breakers" fitted and camber set at 0.... looks really badass.... but it runs with 2 degree of toe in due to camber and tracktion rod setting. So I'll have to see what that translates into.

 

Then tomorrow Night it's the first race of the Danish street race series... wish me luck.!

How do you find these for launch?

Much better then semi's for 1/4 mile. I've never gone lower the high 12s in my zed.

Currently running a V3 and looking to move to a V2.

Can you post up pics of how you run your oil feed and return lines from the engine?

Don't mind drilling the sump but have read that you have to drill into the block too.

If you can provide pics of how you have done it and any thoughts, that would be great.

By the way guys I can recommend a carbon toothed belt available from gates - you should definitely buy if you can get hold of it.  I had a normal rubber toothed belt which snapped, this one just won't lol

Possibly the wrong set up for a boosted application, as you'll want to pipe the outlet to vac side of the turbo.

Running s/c

Thanks for this guys - looking to replace my Lion 065

Thread revival

Has anyone used this:

Seems like a lot of dough for a catch can plus not a fan of mishimoto, but it looks ok.

Mate - you need to post up one complete build thread instead drip feeding odd posts here and there.

This is one of the top spec zeds in the UK for sure.

I have a pair of fronts only with 1 week old Pilot Sport 4 tyres.

As usual, they need a refurb (I'm down near Junc 8 M25 though), anyway I'll post everything up on a separate thread soon.

Send me pics & price - interested

I thought you used to run a carbonetics clutch? 

Just caught up with this, wonderful mate. Keep it coming

Anyone have one of these for sale?

A long shot - preferably ap racing but will consider others.
