SWEEET! Will be looking out for pics / vids when your done What plenum spacer did you go for?

any updates dude?

Looks ACE.

From experience id say you 044 inlet is too small. needs to be circa 11mm ID Minimum AN10 or AN12. oh and i wouldnt use that ebay inline filter the Surface area of them filters reduce flow and have been the bain of alot of problems on cars ive mapped

PS 044's are noisey as hell

Awsome build though buddy keep up the good work.

Welcome! Pics if RX pleasee

No problem.

here she is

Wowww thanks very much for the reply's guys.

Yes good idea with compression test although it dosnt sound like its missing. Its deffinatly a knocking sound. sounds like top end.

My plans were to fix and sell but if im honest ive fallen in love with it.

Thanks for the parts guy's they will come in handy.

Ill keep the thread updated with pics as i go along. il most likley read this forum to death to give me some insite.

Cheers guys

Welcome along and good luck with that engine

Im not sure if that video link works? It shows the knocking sound. if not ill try upload to youtube and paste a link then.

Look forward to meeting some peoples off here and attending meets

Hi guys,

How are we all? Ive joined up as ive just bought myself a nice 350Z. Its a bit of a project if im honest i bought it cheap as the engine is wellllllllll On its way out.

It idles fine but as soon as its reved it seems to knock very badly... bottom end? not sure. i was thinking streched chain and possibly jumped a couple teeth. the engine managemnt light is on.. it idles beautifully which is throwing me off.

Im thinking to pull the engine out and tear it apart. id atach a video but im not too sure how to... here is a pic of it anyway

Thanks guys
