carl0s Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Would it be possible? There was a gold one parked up at PC World yesterday and I have to say I was more than seduced by the interior. Seats, Dials, Steering wheel, et cetera. Kind of felt bad for liking it. I just wish (a) there weren't so many about, and (b) they used a turbocharged I6.

Darren Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 You can buy turbo kits for em...nice sleeper..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 I know but as it's a Vee, it has to be either twin-turbo, or supercharger, plus I don't know how well that Renault V6 lump would stand up to modification. At least the RB25 and 2JZ are known for their reliability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 2JZ-GTE is much better than the RB25, an RB26 would be prefered to the 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D3xt3r Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 There have been some RB26DETT + AWD conversions done to it. I would love one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Only a proper car would have an RB in it, its only when an RB26 gets planted in its worth having one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt T Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I know but as it's a Vee, it has to be either twin-turbo, or supercharger, plus I don't know how well that Renault V6 lump would stand up to modification. At least the RB25 and 2JZ are known for their reliability. Im certain you can get single turbo kits for em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 Im certain you can get single turbo kits for em wouldn't you need some really wacky exhaust manifold? I suppose the TC could be driven by just three cylinders but I wonder how well that would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

attilauk Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 there are a few TT kits for the 350Z and a couple of supercharger setups too, give it a year or two to see how the 'charged cars survive in the long term and i think they could start to become quite interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheMinel Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 there are a few TT kits for the 350Z and a couple of supercharger setups too, give it a year or two to see how the 'charged cars survive in the long term and i think they could start to become quite interesting can confirm from US 350Z forums that SC especially Vortech setups , HKS and Stillen seem to have no reliability issues. Same can be said for 350Z with APS TTs or Greddy (although having been the first TT kit on the Z it used to blow up regularly due to bad tuning mostly, as tuners were just getting acquainted with the VQ35DE limits), cars with kits on for over 2 years if not longer, tens of thousands of miles no issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
