Breaking a new wind on a 5vzfe power

3rd gen Mattie

New member
Ok I’m new to the 5vzfe I have always loved the 3rd gen so I bought my mom a 96 to drive in the winter and I fell in love with it . While I’m not a 5vz expert by any means I have been building RB POWERD 300zx’s I actually did the first RB in a Z31 in the US , RB 26’s in z32’s . Skylines , supras Ls swaps in Z’s in muscle cars I even put a 3.8 supercharged grandam GTP in a cav Z24 . So naturally the first thing when I bought one for myself I realized the 3.4 is a nutless boat anchor that will run forever . I don’t have a spare enging at the moment to try a few things out on
But I do have a spare VG30DETT intake and turbos so has any one tried to flip the exhaust manifolds . This is not some I’m gonna make a thousand hp bs
Pipe dream build thread . I want torque and gobs of it off idle which can be made with turbos all u supercharger guys keep it in your pants . Honestly I think I’m going even smaller with the turbos that’s right 2 of them so I’m gonna play around with the intakes throttle bodies and keep everything like cruise working
And sorting out the maf & a cooling duct in the lower valence so a stock TT Z intercooler can be used to keep this as affordable and efficient as possible .

So you propose to build your Mom a twin turbo Nissan powered 4Runner?

Good luck with that. You might want to get Mom a bus pass, too, just in case.

This is funny.
But seriously, why add power to a vehicle that is already technically unsafe** at 60MPH?
**as are most trucks of any size.
 
Twin turbo Tacos already exist, nothing new here. Though they do it on the 4-cylinder 2RZ/3RZ engines. Not enough room to do it on a 5VZ-FE.
 
Well actually if you had read what I said I bought her one to drive in the winter and I ended up buying my self one as well captan dumb ass
So use your hands for something creative like punching your self in the face

There, it only took 11 posts to insult and alienate the entire group! That might be a new record.:trophy: Well played!

Welcome to the forum! (hmm... where's the asshat emoji?)
 
[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
You'll have to excuse my family- they take a while to warm up to new ideas and people. They'll come around and love your project.
Not sure why they're saying these things are unsafe at 60. I drive 80 all the time in mine on 35s. Sounds like their rig needs some maintenance work.
Also don't know why they think you're swapping the heart for a Nissan blood pumper- even though that might not be the worst thing in the word.
I don't know of anyone trying to flip the manifolds, but I can't wait to see where you go with your experimenting!
Throw up some pics of your previous swaps [emoji1598]

You know there is a thing called spellcheck? Perhaps before you go being an ass to the members on your thread because you don't agree with them you should check it.

I would say you're being the pimple faced school girl here OP.

The fact it took you a total of 2 posts in this thread to start being a dick kinda says you didn't post to actually get input on the idea. You just wanted to be an attention whore and you already have your mind made up on what you're going to do.

People like you are really the ones that make aspects of this forum unenjoyable. So if you're not actually going to make it a constructive conversation then get the hell out.

This response seems rather juvenile.

You may consider Pirate, lots of this sort of thing there.

:violin:
 
Good luck with your project...some of the coolest things that I've ever seen/experienced were the result of people thinking outside of the box. Those who try, fail, and try again typically achieve more in life than those that never try at all. Hopefully your skills match your mouth.
 
You probably got the response you did because of rambling run on story with no well executed question. Just a theory.

Btw if you do a search for turbo you will see there are some pretty cool custom turbo builds on the forum here.

You apparently didn’t read it yourself or the replies because u need to be sending your reply to them . As far as offending most people in 2 posts well I do strive to over achieve. Those guys that I ripped in to kinda deserved it . No where in that post did I say was swapping a Nissan motor in the 4runner I bought for my mother to drive in the winter for starters

Sub'd. This thread is either going to go down the tubes fast with bickering or it's going to result in a twin-turbo 3.4l. :pop2:

Maybe if your OP wasn't filled with misspellings, bad grammar & missing punctuation we'd know what you're talking about. Now get on with the build.

I'll bite.

To begin with, your tone and nature of all of your posts after the initial are going to turn people off. If someone incorrectly thinks that your wanted to put a Nissan engine in your moms 4R, maybe explain what you aim to do, instead of hurling insults and being childish, especially at some of the more prominent members here.

Secondly, on to your question I think what you are asking is if you can flip the exhaust manifolds over, which I do not believe is possible without significant modification. The bolts won't line up and I believe when I had my engine apart, the middle exhaust port is slightly closer to one end or the other, not centered up. I already tossed the old iron manifolds, otherwise I could verify for certainty.
 
Upon further inspection, no the center exhaust opening is not in the middle of the other 2 ports for some reason. and the studs are wrong. No simple flipping exhaust manifolds here.

Maybe a rear mount turbo? or turbos?
