H22a4 to K20z1 swap - Page 7 - Honda Prelude Forum

I've never researched the 350z. I didn't know they could fit them in there to be honest.hahaha

I honestly didn't know(nor did I care), just thought I'd confirm to make sure I was on the same page.

Can I not try and learn to work on cars?

of coarse you can.....i would expect nothing less.lol, i just recall one thread a while ago that you mentiuoned you were taking classes or something. also i have heard of twin turbo setups on inline fours as well, i beleive they are called sequential(where there is one smaller turbine, and one larger turbine, and the smaller one is engaged while the bigger one spools then when that occurs the larger one takes over,; something like that anyway).

No, we don't do stuff like that here.

Why'd you get rid of it?

was the kit expensive?(You don't have to tell me price, I'm not that nosey)

Was it worth it? How tough are the stock blocks?

Wow, this is really cool to know!

* Wanted something I could drive year round in MI.

* Yes, the kit w/ intercooler was ~$6k, other necessary backing mods add a lot more.

* Yes, some of the most fun I've had driving a car

* 8# is about the max for stock block.

That is a worthy 350z. They're beautiful when they are turboed ugly when they're not.

nice power with that beast

how does a turbo make a car look better?

kukles · 12-17-2009, 11:13 AM

though i don't agree that the z is ugly in n/a form, even the ugliest of cars can become much more attractive with the addition of a turbo...

bouckarooo · 12-17-2009, 05:05 PM

^i wonder if a turbo would make my gf look better??

Yeah, I have heard of those sequential systems, pretty cool. I thought that's how the TT Supra's and RB26's work? hmmmm. Oh yeah, and that class was an automotive engine rebuilding class where I worked on a chevy 350(cheap to rebuild and widely known). It didn't teach me about cars themselves.

I do consider myself knowledgeable with cars in general, but there are things I have yet to question(learn)

Just make sure you get her an aftermarket wastegate, or it could get ugly.

And I wonder why all the 5+ year-long members can't stand hanging around the tech sections. I wonder why they didn't want the site to be come "free". I wondered why they can't stand newbs.

Are you moving onto a Prelude from a fvcking civic hatch or something? You are the typical ignorant ricer, leave.
