I don't know on the temps man i've had issues calibrating so not sure how accurate that high 150's temp is, but its hot and at 14psi so it may be okay. I haven't had any issues with my godspeed, its decent size when comparing it to things i've seen on high hp gtr's and such. it definitely beats paying $1500 for that greddy intercooler imo

do you know anyone that has some oem 06 tails? i bought the car like this. kept the grille to hide the intercooler so it works. sleeper ftw till i get to the exterior. power > looks
i'm in little rock a good bit

Thanks man. It's not that hard, you should get a welder and practice! tig is the only one thats tricky imo, mig is a piece of cake!

found the thread.

couple questions:

ambient temp, as far as i know this doesn't do anything but tell us what's on the dash reading correct?

haltech air temp sensor: did you have to add this because it's a rev up? I use my stock maf to get AIT temps and didn't add a second sensor. What is the benefit to a second temp sensor?

good junk man. I'm not sure how you are heading down. I don't know what city you are near in iowa. I know a litlte bit about iowa since my grandparents live there. I'll be in st louis that weekend and would love to check out the car. Depending on where you're coming from you could come down to stl then over to injected. It's under 6 hours to injected from STL.

also, send me some info on how you wired up your 2 step. I haven't set mine up yet. jeffbinder@gmail.com that's faster than catching me on PM here. It goes straight to my phone. pm me ur cell and we can text also.

as far as the ambient temp sensor goes, yes it only tells us outside temp. but the temperature itself reflects how dense the air is to begin with and how high our ait's should get. on a hotter day, hot turbos and pressure are heating up already hot air, and the intercooler can't cool past ambient anyway.
i added the haltech air temp sensor for a few reasons. first, i didnt trust the oem readings, and I am thinking about spraying meth so i wanted to see the temp difference by putting the sensor after the nozzle. Thirdly, i though i could do away with the maf, but the factory ecu didn't like that very much.

I live in Louisiana, sorry the lowercase la looked like IA. It's 14 hours to injected from here.

HAHA, glad you figure me out. Im going to post the turbo comparison lol. I have some VQ love man, its not all about the 2jz. Sounds good, had fun with the Z last year. Definitely look forward to taking the Z. We should takes Z's though haha.

Guess I could always get my updates here since your @$$ cant answer emails often lol. The 300 done as well and just waiting for tune? I'd tell you to take the 260z as well to make sure that thing is tuned right.

Awesome build. DIY is a lot of fun, although can be a pain, def a great experience. Can't wait to be built and not a stock block TT.

HAHA I found it.

Mine vs your lol.


My prediction for Sept 11 is 625rwhp for z33 and 626rwhp for z32 haha.... Anyone want to take their guess?

BTW: All remaining parts are ordered and just waiting on info on head.

Gaffkid732-- You not lying man. Its fun but, can be a PITA. I watched most of this build take place while I was there working on my 240/2j. Helped when and were needed or could but mine(240) is a selfish/inconsiderate/attention wanting MF.HAHA. Things dont go well when there are more cars to be done and not enough time.

Should have scheduled earlier in September Ross haha!!!!!

shut up! lol. I spool quicker haha. Hurry up and get your parts here so i can get your 2j running again, i miss that sound. do you have this angle too?


that prediction is dirty i wanna take the z32 on pump bro. but dad can have the race gas lol. 700's are way out of my reach
hurry up and get back here

I've had a few people ask how my two step is wired up. To make it easy I will just post it here instead of sending many emails.

hope this helps! works fine for me; after launching, only push the clutch enough to release it because if fully depressed the two step will be activated.

the 2 step wiring is shown on Injected Haltech site. just tap the clutch pedal sensor and wire it as shown in the diagram.

30 min job tops.

HAHA maybe you do..but its not that much quicker As for the parts: Parts coated should be on the way, studs, gaskets and your Eibach springs( for being a good friend and helping me out) are ordered, the head will show up actually right before I get back. So i might spend a couple days getting everything together if you can't get to it. Got a tune coming in alse ot help us out. SHould be better than the last one as its from a better source haha. I miss the sound to, I miss driving period haha. Driving 25mph here so ballz with it being over 130degree days in Humvees and crappy a/c.

No man I dont have that angle, I looked to see if I did.

Like my prediction huh? lol You know I did it just to mess with ya. I actually would hope its the other way around and you beat him. Make him go back to the drawing board again haha. He said he'll blow my mind, I think the little 240 is gonna be a nuke to his lol.

Well mission time bro.

I just realized the pic shot from the side you posted, had your turbo in it. All I saw was mine ROFLMAO....Its so cute sitting there by mine haha.

So I have a question I'm new to this forum and I'm planning on doing a similar build I'm shooting for 600 whp also I have read a few different builds and nobody says what they have done to upgrade the transmission or rear end so are you using the stock tranny? What gears are you using?
