For those who do not know who I am, I'm Mike aka Graffkid732 (On forums and such) It has been awhile since I have been posting on here, but figured I would share my build. Some may like it, some may hate, and some may love it.
So the time has finally come for me and I pulled the trigger on a few things, I am parting out most of my 350z to build a “340z”. This car will be a street/highway car that will go to local events/shows/meets etc. Previous setup was an APS Twin Turbo kit with APS Plenum, Greddy Ti-C and other supporting mods. Made 421whp/391wtq at 8lbs.

New power goals: Would like to have 650-700whp on pump. On High boost and a better fuel option, take a glory run and shoot for 12-1300whp. The reason I ditched the VQ was because of reliability with high power. VQs are great motors and I have done a ton of research and had 2 spare blocks to build at one point, but they just don’t stand up to this. V8s are much more common than the 2JZ in a 350z so that pulled me away from doing that.
Car has been off the road for a year and will continue to be until everything is done. Interior/Exterior/Engine. I believe in Quality over Quantity. A lot of the work is being done at my house in the garage. Pretty much have the whole build planned out, but we all know how that goes. I will update the thread as often as I can with updates. May have forgotten something, so I’ll keep adding.
Engine is being assembled by Titan Motorsports in Orlando. The Friday before Christmas I get a phone call from Marty at Titan saying there was an issue with the Head from the machine shop. Luckily enough, they caught it before I got it and they sent the head back to get reworked. So again, I am playing the waiting game but I am not in a rush to do anything, I just want everything done right…The first time.
