yeah i agree....lots of the muscleheads with their 5.7liter+ sized v8's run into steetablility issues when building a 450 whp all motor engine. and u claim uve seen it out of 3 liters? the pistons and cams would have to run ludicrous compression and duration along with revving the bitch out to 10 grand before ud see that kind of power. proof is definetly in order here.

Default The NA Z32

The choice to build up the NA Z32 is indeed a tough road, to take. However there are a select few of us that have chosen that path. I could go out and buy a TT Z32, however I have not for several reasons.

First and formost I purchased my 1994 NAZ32 my junior year in high school, 1998. Thusly, I have an attatchment to the car and full well intend on keeping it definatively. I have had other cars since purchasing the Z, most notably my 1990 S-13 that I SR swapped but its just not the same for one reason or another. (Nothing against the 240, obviously I regretted selling the sr swap or else I would not have bought another one a year ago)

So, on with the NA Z32. No, it is not going to ever be a monster in a forced induction market, however it can be made to quite a bit more potent than it is normally. My suggestion for modifying the car would be as follows.

1.) Intake - JWT Pop Charger (www.Ztuner.com)
2.) 12.5" Brake Upgrade (www.Ztuner.com)
3.) Cat Back exhaust, the hyper is a good bang for the buck. $540 -- (www.boost-solutions.com)
4.) 1 Piece Aluminum Drive Shaft (www.DriveShaft.com)
5.) Ground Control Coil Overs & Front and Rear Strut Bars
6.) Unorthodox Racing Under Drive Pulley (www.conceptzperformance.com)
7.) NA Headers (www.Stillen.com)
8.) Short Throw Shifter (www.Stillen.com)
9.) Custom ECU (www.Ztuner.com)
10.) ApexI SAFC
11.) TT Injectors (used from TTNet Classifieds)
12.) 60 - 100 Wet Shot N20

Also remember that weight reduction=speed. So, strip alot of the excess heat shields, excess sound deadening, etc off of the car. Also make sure to purchase light wheels, nothing more then 18 or 19lbs at the most...as heavier wheels will surely slow the car down. Follow those steps and you will have a pretty damn mean NA...not a modded TT but a mean all motor Z32.

did i say it was my car? so why would i then have dyno sheets and etc for these cars? also i dont live in tampa any more, im not in houston, texas, and you also must understand theres some guys that build some badass cars that you dont see on the net posted all over the place. but still all this has nothing to do with Jeff to get his n/a Z built up.. btw though, im sure that the n/a Z was bored/stroked,high compression, race gas only type deal. still whatever, you dont have to believe me, its not keeping me from losing my sleep.. anyways have a great day guys..
