Can someone give me some back ground info and history on my car's engine.I'm trying to do some research on the engine before I proceed with mod's. I figured since it's a turbo engine I should post in the Turbo furom. So can someone help me out ?

What do you want to know?
The L28ET is a very durable engine. The L-Series has been around since 1969. The later RB engine used in the skyline has many similarities.
You can take it as far as 900 hp if you want. Don Devendorf and the Electramotive crew won the 1982 IMSA GTO championship with the engine, I started working at Electramotive at the end of the season.
Start with the basics, good intake, exhaust and a sound engine. Then you can proceed to bigger turbo, intercooler, injectors and ECU. There are quite a few parts available for the L series engines. There is a popular diesel crankshaft that combined with an overbore will make 3.1 liters quite nicely.
You need to figure out what kind of power you want to make and then start you planning from there.

On the VG30 you can go over 1000 hp if you want to spend a bunch of money.
My Z31 made 577hp to the wheels and 598 ft/lbs to the wheels. The car was featured in SCC and Sport Z magazine. It's a bit of a beast.
