I just wanted to see who all has it now the only person i know of is MIAPLAYA. I know they have already made one shippment, so where did all the kits go? As for the second shippment I am already in on... it just waiting now, anybody else?

 

My car should be going in for an install next week. I will post detailed pics and info including baseline dyno and turbo'd dyno. Purchase price was $4,900.

 

sweet man...congratulations. Have you thought about internals? I am working on some prices for a complete build and just enough to get by with. Did you get a kit from the first batch or the second? cant wait to see pics and info.

 

I have one on order and should have it in a couple weeks. Can't wait!!

 

redline, you may want to get a shortblock from SGP Racing with the parts you want for ~3800 (installed, blanaced, bored, etc.).

 

i plan on getting one, but not right now. Im gonna wait prob about 6 months to a year, yeah i know a year but oh well.

 

DITTO!!!! Yeah I'm looking to get a built long block in the next year. After that thinking I may switch to a 62-1 or T66 and go for the gold...Shooting for the 700s

 

my long term goal is about 600-700rwh, but this is like a 3 year goal, so i say if i start now, by getting a block to rebuild or to just build up and quire parts while i still have warranty, then as soon as it is up on the motor it gets pulled and the built one goes in.

 

So that shortblock from SGP Racing comes with what other parts, and its 3800? if its what iam thinking it sounds like a good deal.

what does the + 2000 core mean? If it is another $2000 why not just say it is $9500. I hate when prices are advertised like that. Only $199 plus this plus that. Just give me the bottom line dude!


Upgraded Long Block #3: $7500 + $2000 Core

 

the reason they do that is because they want your stock block as a core to use for future rebuilds. they know that by charging the large core amount you will send them your block & not keep it around or get lazy & put off sending it back. once they recieve your stock block you will get the core charge refunded. they dont list the core charge in the amount because some people have the option to send thier stock block to them before purchasing the new block if they wanted, so the extra core charge would not apply to them.......

That makes sense now.

Thanks!

 

Sorry stupid newby quesiton...


The difference between a "shortblock" "longblock"?

 

Short block is just the block. Long block is the block and heads..

 

I guess they could be called "short block" and "tall block"... A short block is the bottom end: block, crank, rods, and pistons. The tal-- I mean, long block is the short block plus the heads, cams, valves and so forth.

 

I sent mine back to them within a week after getting the short block and had my credit card credited back the $2000 within a week after that . No big deal

 

Thanks guys I was kinda figuring that but wanted to be sure.

I will be getting the Turbonetics kit after they release the High Flow Cat version, then maybe later next year to step it up and also consider getting the AEBS VQ35DE Stroker Kit 350Z...
