98 240sx S14 SR20det Build

Hey guys I thought I'd post this so you could check it out. I'm building my brother's 98 240 that we have put a sr20 in. It's fully bolted catless DP, intercooler, custom stainless piping, apexi 3in exhaust, upgraded coilpacks, tubular exhaust manifold, crower cam gears, springs and cams, CP pistons, eagle rods, rocker arm stoppers and a microtech stand alone.

We picked up a Garrett GT2871r I think it's a little bit small for my tastes but I bought it for him and got a killer deal

We're gonna do some Candy Red paint on the valvecover and a balancer is in the plans as well

I'm looking to throw it in one of these weekends coming up here soon but I need to port my head and finish the LSJ gtx3076r swap as well so I'm kinda busy

Haha that it is! I took him for a rip in my car and he doesn't want it to be that fast but I've sold him on a 6758 he just wants it to run for a bit and he just put out thousands for the built engine

isn't that what they refer to as the disco potato? If so they are small but actually pretty potent like 350-400whp

Nope the disco potato is the gt2860rs smaller compressor wheel. We should be able to get 400whp from it if I can get him to run some meth

Well it's been just over a year since I last talked about this but I'm FINALLY throwing the heart back into my brother's 240!! I get my engine next week so I'm planning on having this done before next weekend.

Me n my buddy are getting his 240 running at school. He just got it in there but his sprayed oil and coolant everywhere when he started it and let it idle. Idk if he had the right feed lines or what but he had oil underneath them. Also gotta drain the gas I think, it's been sitting for a year and it bogged out and died when he tried starting it after like 8 months of sitting. Changing fluids and checking all the lines once we get a lift at school. There's been construction going on in our work bays so we sat through book work and then worked on it outside. We're using the cheap version of the turbo Kevin's got going on this. The Isis 3871.
