Here is a animation showing the internals of the Laminova Inlet Manifold working with a supercharger. This is the same setup as I am running except this is the 2.0l Eco with a M62 supercharger.

I have picked the engine from the builder this week. It was a big 4000km drive to get it but boy was it a relief to finally have it sitting in my shed ready for the next part of the build. Here is a peek of the engine running before loading into the car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJgltk5DEfg An...

Update:

Engine ran today fired up first go and is running perfectly.

Now it is running a bypass vacuum setup on the supercharger can be made to make it idle and adjusted so. I'll get some more pics and I am trying to get a short movie of it running on the engine test bench.

Update The engine has had all the machining done. The block has been debured and any rough casting removed from the block internals and assembly will be happening very soon. Only change to the configuration was we opted not to run the Aluminum Flywheel. After much discussion with a few people I hav...

I flew down to Melbourne last weekend and visited Ecotec Marine where my engine sits waiting for the build. Had a long discussion about the build and looked at the expected outcomes and any performance gains we could achieve in house without spending a fortune. The HP limitations on what we now have...

Update: Parts have arrived from the US and Graham had another discussion with Ray Bates and has been decided to remove the counter weight balance shafts from the engine... 2 reasons.. 1: more HP but also 2: to reduce the stress on the cam chain. Graham had purchased a Kit from the US for the Speedw...

Alternator fitted now just waiting for parts from US for engine build.

It would only take an adapter plate to do it. Very soon I will have an adapter from Eco to NIssan GTR box and a AutoCAD file that could be changed for any other box.

Those prices are for a boat setup with all the water jackets and bell housing adapters etc. My 2.4L VVT Ecotec as a complete motor imported was $3000. This is just the motor not the SC and wiring and computer etc just a motor. If you wanted a great engine... I would do would by a bear motor and buy ...

Engine looks really nice How much boost ? Have you considered water/meth injection? Initial boost will be 12psi with an option for going as far as 18psi by changing the pulley... I'll be open to other methods once we know what 12psi will deliver. just noticed you are located in bris-vegas... where ...

Nah the stagea is too nice to muck with... plus I need to sell off what I don't use to pay for the build.

M90 Superchager fit up







Still have the alternator and an idler to fit up yet.

lol yeah I understand your worry... I'm a Nissan lover too. My first rally car was a Datsun 1600 and I drive a Stagea 4WD Turbo... my previous tow car was a Pathfinder converted to 2WD with a SR20DET putting out 280HP @ wheels. It had a TurboLINK and I ran Water Injection as well. I love the Stagea ...
