N/A to Tubby conversion
if you want to bolt tubs onto your NA engine, then check out this link: http://www.z1motorsports.com/PDFs/NAwTTs(partsprices).pdf bear in mind that unless youre lowering the compression ratio, you will only be able to run very low boost pressures, no point in going bigger than stock. (& i wouldnt wanna do this anyway TBH!!) good luck!

De-chipping and removing boost jets

what will a Zed rev to?
no, what i was saying was that they will boost into & over the red line. if you look at dyno printouts for big turbos, the power figure will quite often still be rising well past 7000 rpm. & if your fitting bloody great blowers @ 20 odd psi, well thats hardly recommended by the Nissan rule book either is it?!? upping the rev limiter is another way of increasing power (or giving you a better use of your power band)

unless youve got big blowers which may very well be producing power well above that.

90 squid??? sounds stupidly low to me!! bloody bearings & gaskets cost that without clutch bands/plates, hubs, valves solenoids etc etc

what will a Zed rev to?
rev limiter is set at 7200 IIRC, most chips take this up to 7500rpm simon (51x) had his engine rebuilt with a rev limiter at a bonkers 8500 rpm ther was one in the states that i saw that was alledgedly balanced for around 12-13000 rpm i believe (or dont believe! :D)

Upgrades
buy a TT :D seriously, N/A tuning is obviously more limited than the TT,if you do want to go down this route then i would suggest: induction, exhaust, decat (hi back pressure fans ;)), chip (have a word with Jock) for starters. next could be lightweight flywheel & underdrive pulley. exhaust manifolds are pricey but apparently a useful mod on a NA NOS if you want to get serious!

UKs had adjustable rears only, automatically controlled with the handbrake trick as a test (which iv just removed ;) :D) US had adjustable all round with a switch inside as well for activating them
