Whats up guys, My names jay and I'm from the states and would like to share my current drift build. Well the story with this car is I got it as a daily driver back in 2012 with the intent to just maintain it and drive it. Well here I am now typing this and the itch has got to me. Coming from 2 previous s14's, one being stock NA zenki and the other being a KA-T with gt2871r I decided I wanted a newer chassis to cruise around in, thus leaving me with the decision of purchasing a 2003 350z 6 speed. Before I jump into the build and plans here's a few pics of my last s14(240sx) and some Z pics S14 {} {} {} {} {} Some pics of the Z that I will be working on and swapping the 2jzgte into When I first bought her, terrible wheels changed to stock a week later {} Tried a carbon fiber nismo v1 for a while, sold it {} Interior shot {} And how she now sits, {} Now onto the build Parts list so far.

Just looking for reliability for now 375whp stock fuel for now then upgrade over the winter. stand alone, fuel, cams, cam gears ect over the winter. Few parts came in just figured I'd share. Brand new old school blitz bov GM fuel filter with an fittings Fuel an fittings Stock fuel rail an fittings Stock hard line to an fitting K&N iacv breather Will update further when parts roll in
Got pretty much everything installed just waiting on drive shaft, wiring fans and fmic setup .What do your guys think Elongated the cross member holes and used stock mounts Dropping it in Shifter sitting center with stock mounts,Collins adaptor and hoke performance shifter. Sent my throttle body out to get the trac removed and shortened Stock trans bracket modified Sits close and will have to use pusher fans
Man thats tight!! Even with pusher fans wont the air flow be restricted with engine that close to the rad? The air wont be able to flow through easily surely? Plus youve got the heat from the engine radiating out? Looks awesome though bud!
No over heating issues yet and the car is fun too drove just need to get an exhaust and safc for now. Watch "2jz 350z first drive" on YouTube https://youtu.be/5Hg1644Y2HM
Thanks bro I just have to get the exhaust made tomorrow and sikky sway bar along with other suspension mods.
Question: So I have a12.7 psi spring in the precision 39mm wg, but the car still seems to boost closer to 15psi and hit boost cut and then it feels like I hit a brick wall. Also in boost my AF is 10 and feels like I'm losing allot of power. Stock jdm aristo ecu bws366 Blitz bov(softest setting yet still don't really hear it I don't think) Pw39 WG just 3"down pipe, not full exhaust All vacuums hooked up to a vacuum block hooked up I line with main vacuum on intake manifold.
Ok well the cars done ands driving great. Here's pics of driving 2 hours to Connecticut to wiring specialties shop which was awesome and prepping the car for the drive home.everything works like factory and is just awesome. Wowing specialties front entrance Putting the bumper on ands looking overt things before the drive Sleep JZ to the left Buddy's stocker (for now) to the right at a quick run to lowes. Little video of a quick cruise 350z JZ - YouTube 2jzgte 350z drive to target - YouTube
Put in some work yesterday.Anyone interested in the 350z swap, this is with stock aristo brackets& mounts with 350z trans , Collins a hoke performance shifter relocation.everything fits beautifully and driving it is so much fun.
