Just acquired a 04 g35 de engine 80k miles blown headgasket, I picked it up for next to nothing. Plans are to crack it open build it for boost, I'd be Happy with 500wheel and the more torque the better.. Im currently pulling another de apart for a friend thats building one for crazy power.

 

got pics of Miata?

 

Well Being its 350Z site I wasnt going to throw any up, but heres a few from the build.
heres the block from the machine shop, she was hot tanked,shot peened, re honed and I had her coated crinkle black. Fresh Brass Freeze Plugs.

here I use a Acetylene torch to burn out all the old bushings from rear diff and all suspension arms.

Heres the Motor fresh out of the car, disgusting.

Theres alot of new pics I need to put up, I have wire wheeled the entire car of seam sealer. Getting ready to spot weld everything for rigidity. Once thats complete car is heading to the body shop.

 

Welcome Back!

 

mind me asking what the cost is of this? ballpark? looks good

 

just to build the motor? im currently rebuilding the entire car. every suspension arm was bead blased and coated.
engine bay has had every little thing removed, and cleaned up, shaved.
underside of car was pressure washed with purple power, hand scrubbed, and coated with 3m Underbody coating, small fortune in 10$ cans
interior is gutted, 6 point cage xbrace and harness bar.

Ive probably got like 5k in the entire build if that? with purchase of car. I should of been keeping better track.
I collected part for 6 months for a 200hp build, last minute i wanted 250+ lol
I'd say I have 1k in that motor maybe a little more? Ive sourced everything at reasonable prices off forums and via friends.

 

Looks nice.

 

thanks appreciate it, hopefully in the next year ill be posting some vq builds.
