The Forgotten V6, Just Add Boost! (and a built engine)

Today on The Skid Factory we’re hanging out with The Hoff at ‪@NuggetGarage‬ to tune Timmy’s VQ35 Turbo Datsun Bluebird!
Timmy has featured on the show many times helping us out with wiring and showing off his Datsun products from One Six Industries. He has a couple of cool Dattos including this 1981 Datsun Bluebird 910
The Current setup consists of a VQ35 bottom end from a Nissan Elgrand with Weisco Pistons and Eagle Conrods mated to VQ30 Cylinder Heads with HKS MLS Gaskets ARP L19 Head studs, VQ35 Kelford Camshafts and Valve Springs.
After playing around with a few different turbo combinations Timmy has settled on a G40-1150 which he’s hoping will provide both response and Top end power.

@hydrocarbon8272 Жыл бұрын

What you guys were seeing with the fuel pressure was likely one pump surging (backflowing) thru the other and no, the check valve cannot react fast enough. You shouldn't use 2 pumps with different flow rates in parallel, just like you can't do that with turbos. I imagine he probably had 2 similar pumps previously, as he said "I did just swap the PRIMARY pump out". If you're curious, I have tested 'mixed' pump combos to flow less than a single pump in certain situations. It's smarter to just use an aftermarket check valve if you're running 2+ staged 525lph pumps rather than a 525 and another smaller pump with an integrated check valve.

Love a good datto, and I'm keen to find out just how far you can push a VQ. They didn't seem to get much love maybe 5-10 years back, but I suppose they're cheap enough now that development is actually taking place. It's found a good home in that Bluebird though!

Lots of El-grande 'mang' there. Love it. BTW, have run hall effect on two motors now. Sync loss can be sorted with a pull-up resistor to get rid of interference. Noticeable difference on my latest setup 10k resister did the trick. 12 teeth isn't a lot either. 36-1 is more reliable as I understand.
