A video of how it all started with my 07 350z. From when i bought it till now. Enjoy. More videos to come. follow me on ig @ Boosted_projectz for turbo kits and merch go to www.boostedprojectz.com ...
The engine bay is super cramped on Z's. Hence the top mount turbo setup not having a hood. With the muffler removed there is a lot of room in the back for a turbo setup. Just make sure not to have any boost leaks and it will work great.
LS3 , with a supercharger , belt driven , single 93mm , just another radiator / heat exchanger in front , small pump , 6-700HP , all day and nite , lnngtube headers , true dual exhaust , center exit , set the engine back about 5-6” , lower it some , lose the spare tire , move battery to trunk , , no cats , racing seats , should get you there below 10’
As an hr owner myself this is why I don't boost any of my cars. Too many problems... I'll just keep it fbo n/a. Not the fastest thing around but at least it sounds nice and I won't be on the side of the street or freeway because of broken parts lol. Nice built though, the orange looked better than the white color imo
Lots of redundancy in a few areas you could have saved some money. Always do research from top to bottom and triple check it before you spin money on the same thing or area multiple times. From car guy to car guy. -2013 G37S 6speed sedan-
Everything i have done on it has improved the car nothing has been done without research. I've spent less money on this build then most other ppl do on builds like mine. I've done all the work on it myself. You been a car guy know when you work on your own car you save a lot of money.
@@boostedprojectz Good job. All our projects are exactly that - PROJECTS. The fact that you are doing some of the work yourself helps SO MUCH. I am not very mechanical - I have an 04 Z (DE) that I’m building and the money and time that it is taking is not whats important. I appreciate your journey & your car is awesome. I just put a 60k mile motor in mine and bought a preowned ProCharger. Hoping for the best results I can get on the path I’m on. I’ll be happy with 450whp and no breakdowns $ :)
amazing build man, hard to believe you could put all that boosrt and nitrous into the system without any forged internals. Just curious, how did you like the rear mount turbo system? I have considered wanting to do that to a car im getting but im leaning towards no because of the lag time and its prone to water and debris, also you cant hear it as good? What do you think, have these ever been a problem for you with the rear mount turbo? Thanks!
Thanks. I enjoyed the rear mount turbo setup. They work just as any other turbo setup. I never really had any issues with the rear mount kit. As for the lag its a more noticeable then a top mount but if you brake boost or use antilag you wont notice any lag.
I’m not an expert on the vqs but to what I’ve understood, once you turbo them you really need to get a tune otherwise you’ll eventually fuck something up. On both the engines he had that he blew he didn’t say anything about getting it tuned, and after he put the hr in and got it tuned he didn’t spin another bearing. So I’m guessing that’s what caused it
What was the drag time after the vq37hr swap? Did you use just the bottom half? What was the compression ratio? I have seen guys making goods power on a stock engine. Spun bearing twice? You must be doing something wrong.
Hey man can u email me pictures of how u rand your hot and cold piping please think ima run the same kinda top mount set up like it alottttt lol thanks in advance bro
Besides the turbo kit itself, you need to upgrade yourself fuel system, bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, and a fuel return system if you want to make good power. I would recommend doing your gallery gaskets if you plan to run the stock block. That just something that will prevent issues later on.
Finally, a worthy “building x in y minutes” video
especially since it's a z
@@zaynepelayo5806 thats a good pun haha
Worthy? Wacky build and bad driving. My chicks bolt on Hr on a 100 shot runs 11.60's at 119mph.
I was also trying to do a vq37 swap on my g35 how complicated/simple was the swap?
Bro said “first mod: destroy the environment” 😂😂😂🔥🔥
So simple and so effective. This the type of content car enthusiasts need!
Im probably new at this...but this is the first rear mount set up for boost ive heard of. Never knew it was a thing
Same due i was like wtf happens if turbo hits the ground
you could put your turbo inside your cabin if you are brave enough
it is pretty common for 350z and 370z to have a rear turbo
The engine bay is super cramped on Z's. Hence the top mount turbo setup not having a hood. With the muffler removed there is a lot of room in the back for a turbo setup. Just make sure not to have any boost leaks and it will work great.
beautiful build dude, keep up the hard work and you will get that 10 sec pass!!
Thanks appreciate it. We getting that 10 second soon!
Dude upgraded and changed his 350z so much you can't even remember what the first one was like
This was a really good Building vid tbh!
And I’m just happy with my FBO 350z DE running 12s 😩😭
As long as you know what your doing. Its going to be done!👌🔥
It’s common for Zs as we have no space in the engine bay unless you’re going to cut a hole in your hood or rock it without one haha
Very nice! I really wish I could dump stupid money in my 08. Its worthy of some love
I enjoyed this video! Thanks!
One of the most cleanest z I’ve ever seen good job bro you’ll get that 10 seconds soon🔥
I appreciate the persistence. But this for sure showed me that I need to spend money on building the engine the first time. Lol.
Loved to see the progress. Much love and respect to you from a fellow DIY Z owner.
Appreciate it!
Hey man im really proud of your build, very optimistic and good minded work. Good job man
Sounds like some power shifting will get you in the tens. I can sip my coffee between your shifts brother...
Honestly Bro you a savage we wanna see a 4.3L vq for your next set up

I enjoyed watching your Boost journey here.
Dude you'll easily get to your goal with that setup 👌
AZ boys 🤝 I really wanna turbo my g37 sedan this year smh. I already know what turbo I want but I guess it’s time to learn to boost a car 😤
That car is a menace wtf
Man that 11 minute video felt like 22 minutes . Cool car .
I love it, but you're spending a good amount of time with shifting, maybe a sequential gearbox? It sounds sick btw! 🤘🏻
So BOSS
So Cool 😎
As an hr owner myself this is why I don't boost any of my cars. Too many problems... I'll just keep it fbo n/a. Not the fastest thing around but at least it sounds nice and I won't be on the side of the street or freeway because of broken parts lol. Nice built though, the orange looked better than the white color imo
wow! nice work!! gratz bro!
Drive safe my guy ❤️
Big props, dope build
Great Video! I really like the way you structured it. I'm still driving my 03 Z. I want to get the rocket bunny body kit.
This was a great video man! I love my Z but I couldn't turbo it lol
Great build. We know where your stimmy checks went...bhahaha...JK...great build and great video. Keep updating. Thank you
top mount hood exit hrs sound the best and you also lose alot of that back pressure and boost lag from the reer mount
I'm new in the car scene and was looking for set ups for my z I got a 06 love the z I wanna make mine like your tbh
Congratulations I admire your persistence and for sure you will get 1/4 in10 seconds, God Bless You!
Love the build dude 🤘🏼
really cool video i have a boosted and bagged hr. i wished i could see your tunes graphs lol
Nicely done ✅ I’m looking to turbo mine soon!
it that thing even road legal still looking sick tho
Music killed me brother man
Spun bearing twice on an engine capable of 600whp? Turbo has a lot of lag. It is reaching full boost at 5000rpm. Not an issue for drag racing though.
Best work !!!
That's wasup man..!!!!👊🏾👊🏾
I prefer the vq35 than the vq37
9:24 holy shit that sounds like a murcielego
Nice project
Thanks appreciate it
sick build vid i woulda liked some description of the parts you added since im new to cars but none the less fire
supper fire
I want a Z so fucking bad like more that anything in this world

Insane
Why did you throw a bearing twice? How could of this been prevented?
Oil cooling issue. Larger oil pan and shorter change interval.
Fast and furious fuck boi right here holy shit!
Nos is your 1st mod holleeeeee this is hilarious
I can tell who the fast and furious fuck boi is here by the guy calling nitrous NOS 😂
@@boostedprojectz its called an abbreviation buddy but you are American so I can understand you don't know what that means
Amazing build.
Was it the oil gallery gasket that caused the spun bearing - or heat from the high compression??
He never swapped to low compression pistons during all of this 🤣. I saw 12 psi on a stock 35HR block 💀!
damn nice build unfortunate about all the spun bearings... thats something im trying to avoid rn on my vqde
Props on the work put into the car but those engines sound annoying even boosted lol
Cool build man! Could you talk me through the engine process? You had a 35HR and then simply swapped in a 37VHR?
I was hoping you put letters under every mod but it don’t matter good vid
Is it jus me or have i sern this guy in phx az
Rear mount the turbo you will get your 10 second pass

@@boostedprojectz okay awesome thanks for all the good info!
Make sure you got a mod plate so the cops don’t fuck you over
Bone stoke *sees two intakes*
Hey man you do turbo kits with gabe right? I just dropped him off my 08 350z for the vq37hr swap with cams and a mid mount 😁🔥
full mod list?
😂😂😂but you owe me a 10 second car Brian Oconnar
Wow much money much
Love the car can you please let me know what year it is much appreciated It
Its a 2007.
Why a turbo behind a car?
How much do you have into the build so far?
should gut the entire interior make it weigh way lighter should help with times
I will gut it if i cant get it to do a 10 second pass with full interior.
Goals
Sick build bro , do you have any idea how much power it’s making?
I havent dynoed it but it probably around mid to high 500s
@@boostedprojectz nah you gotta be touching 6xx on a boosted 3.7 bro. 93 or corn?
really nice build how much wqas the nitrous kit ?
I have an hr G35s so was the vhr bottom end not really worth it?
What all did you have to change out for the hr swap
I love the build and i just don't know y u did the top turbo
Why ditch the solar orange tho😢
how much money did u spend ?? buy the end ???
What components of the engine to u upgrade when installing a turbo
Seems like the stock VQ35HR lasted longer that both of the built bottom ends
I’m not an expert on the vqs but to what I’ve understood, once you turbo them you really need to get a tune otherwise you’ll eventually fuck something up. On both the engines he had that he blew he didn’t say anything about getting it tuned, and after he put the hr in and got it tuned he didn’t spin another bearing. So I’m guessing that’s what caused it
7:50 whats that rear bumper?
Ok so I got the inspiration now where can I find the money and know how
How does the suspensions components look now too
U kept ur 350z hr heads n put them on the vq37 block
Yes on the vq37hr. Its the 3.7 short block with hr heads
how much you pay for the z stock
Why do they do rear mount turbos again? I read about before and forgot
I fw the build but bro aren’t u worried ab water gettting in ur intake and turbo being under the car
Granny shifting
Question, where did you learn how to mod your car? I'm wanting to get a 350 or 370.
Dude just for reference, how much money have you spent in the upgrades?
Does it flood there? How does the turbo hold up with flooding or puddles ect if at all?
What was the drag time after the vq37hr swap? Did you use just the bottom half? What was the compression ratio? I have seen guys making goods power on a stock engine. Spun bearing twice? You must be doing something wrong.
i love the fucking no hood🥵
lol 5 days after pop top mount turbo tune spun bearing :(
Is the VQ37 swamp harder than the LS swap? I haven’t seen many VQ37 swaps Nice build!
It isnt hard at all. You just take a 3.7 shortblock and put the HR heads. Its way easier then doing an ls swap
Where did you work at for all that money 💀
Hey man can u email me pictures of how u rand your hot and cold piping please think ima run the same kinda top mount set up like it alottttt lol thanks in advance bro
If you don’t mind me asking, how much were all of the upgrades you did?
What mods do you recommend in order to prepare for boost w/ minimum issue?
Besides the turbo kit itself, you need to upgrade yourself fuel system, bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, and a fuel return system if you want to make good power. I would recommend doing your gallery gaskets if you plan to run the stock block. That just something that will prevent issues later on.
i promise it’s stick officer…
