Me and a few guys from work did Festivus on the 10th, Haha. We went to a wing place with a 5ft alum. pole and put it on our table.

I love it!

How much did you give for youre shell. ^^^^^^

There was a thread awhile back about these. ABC Hobby makes the shells in Japan. They come up on ebay from time to time, for 60 bucks. They are also based on a 190mm Elec. chassis.

Thats good to hear because that was the only area that bothered me. Thanks for all the leg work Austin!

Id be in the market for one but wouldnt need the shackel TIGed. If the price isnt too bad.

Ive mounted 30's and I cant even think about how much a PITA those would be to mount!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

The 350z dosent use a typical ABS, it uses an AC wheel speed sensor. Uses a magnetic ring in the wheel bearing and an active hall sensor. But you could make a ring and mount it on the drive shaft or make the orig speedo cable run a rig.

No the speedo runs off of all 4 ABS wheel speed sensors thru CAN-BUS. To the BCM then to the HVAC Amp. then to Gagues. Its an 8 pulse signal into the gague unit. Im going to try to figure out how to make it work.

Ill agree with Drhunt. With semi solid motor mounts at 4 points and no balance shafts in our 4g63, theres no real noticeable vibration. But the rotating assy. is balanced within a half gram. I wouldnt think that balance shafts should be needed at all in a performance oriented car. Also couldnt the crank be made with full counter weight. Then have weight removed if the vibration isnt too bad.

Happy Birthday to you sir!

Id run her through the ringer first ask for a picture with something off the wall on the hood. Something easy that anyone should have. Just to make sure that the car is real. Also the last time I checked it was almost 2000 dollars to ship a Z from AZ to VA. So unless shes right up the road, I wouldnt expect the cost to be very cheap. There are alot of scams out there make sure you ask lots of questions. I asked a guy one time if he minded if I fly out and drive the car back. Never heard from him again, this was on a newer car that was very cheap.

I need to get working on mine hardcore now! Good Job!!!!

We run a china T4/T3 hybrid on Geoffs Eclipse and so far it works great! I wouldnt think twice about buying one. 1FastZ runs two of the same on his car maybe ask him.

The "bubble" episode was really cool. I happen to like the show!

AWESOME! nuff said

Thanks all!!!

This sounds like the 2008 Audi S5 I was looking at buying for 22K. If its way to good to be true, it probly not.

SWEET!! Glad to see to running!!

What were you afraid would cause the car to go into Limp-in? Something else I wanted to ask you was, did you delete all of the EVAP controls? I have a feeling that your going to need a resonator before the muffler. From what ive been reading is alot of the guys running the test pipes. Are using the resonated ones instead of using the stright pipe. This was only to control the rasp and noise. Are you still running the NVIS (Immob.) system.

The owner got out with a scratch, and walked away from the werck. It was nice seein ya agian Joe!

I ended up giving 1200 for the car the guy was asking 1500 for it. I just couldnt pass it up and Im so much happier with the "Nissan" power plant. Flame all you want, but my dog's name is "Nismo". The P/S pump pulley is bent but I dont need it, the engine and drive line made out ok. I'll be pulling the engine and trans tonight and maybe the rear subframe. Its amazing how much Alum. is on this car, so I should get a lil money back from scrap alone.

I was planning on doing a 4G63 swap and actually bought alot of parts. Thanks to a buddy for looking at Craigslist, we found my new car! Its an 06' 350 6spd 44K and the drivers door just needs a little bondo! What Im told is the owner was going very very fast hit a FedEx truck and took a trip thru the woods! You cant see in the pics because it had to be removed. But the drivers door bar was thru the LF wheel and tire, thats what made the hole in the 2nd to last pic! It had to be removed to get the car on the trailer. So after a few hours heres what it looks like now. Guess whats going to happen now!

Spring rate with air is very progressive, Ill find the Sport compact issue that has the figures. From personal exp. on my altima, it handles better than the factory struts and springs. But dealing with the leaks and up keep it becomes a major PITA.
