Ok well I finally got my car put back together yesterday and was taking it for a drive and it started raining. I was driving and then my engine just died. So i pulled over and tried starting it again and it wouldnt start. Checked my injector pulse with my noid light i keep in the car and nothing. Tried some starting fluid and nothing. So i wasnt getting fuel or spark. Then i checked the lights on the MS and nothing no lights what so ever. So crap what now? I was close to my friends work so i grabbed his jeep and went home and grabbed my stim and laptop and everything. Went back and plugged my laptop in and turned on my car and nothing no connection what so ever. It was raining so i unplugged my MS and just take it home with me. So im at home and i have my friends MS that he hasnt installed yet to work with and i get my stim working and get all the lights on the stim working correctly. But it wont connect to Megatune. If i open up the mini-terminal i do get the repeat if i type a letter so its communicating but not completely or something. I thought that maybe i got the processors mixed up and from my friends MS and that the it didnt have MS software installed so i tried to install the INI file and i got this message Now what to do after this I have no clue. Any help would be appreciated. Or if anybody has any ideas.

300 whp Turbo would be cheaper than 300whp NA. I can build a 300hp Turbo for around 2k. 1. Unopened turbo long block $500 2. Holset turbo $350 3. intercooler. and piping and bov. $300 4. Megasquirt $400ish 5. 440cc injectors depending on where you get them $300 There ya go a decent recipe that can get you more than 300whp

Its going to be blacked out. Its the last piece i have to black out.

Well sorry for the lack of updates but here it is now. Guess this is kinda the end to the thread. It just needs to be wetsanded and buffed and then she is done.

Well I got it all Painted and back together. My camera died after one picture and then it started raining so no more pictures. Here is the one picture i got. Let me know what you think..

I painted mine and i couldnt of been happier. I painted the chrome bezels gloss black and then the whole outside plastic satin black. Nice looking Z btw

It depends on the year. I am using the same drive shaft as i was when i was using my r180.

Whats also nice about that is that you now can get new cv axles that arent "rebuilt" and arent 20 some years old.

Those are a newer version of the HY35W. Those are HE351CW's both would work. Id get the secound one as it comes with the exhaust elbow and makes it alot easier to install. The he351cw is the came as the hy35w except it has a 2mm bigger compressor wheel.

Thanks for the update jgkurz. Let me know when your ready to get it shipped out. SSAC said they would do paypal at any time. Im also sure they will have no issues insuring the shipping. Maybe it would be best if you wait to get it coated till after you get it back just so there isnt a chance of it getting messed up somehow. Shoot me a pm if you want to talk the specifics

Maybe they are trying to give someone a way to save some money if they want to send a cashiers check or MO. But if THEY want the convenience of using paypal to get the transaction done faster then they can pay the fee

I say alot of people that are esp. Selling something that they made and arent selling for a great deal of money that 3% can really cut into there profit and basically make it not worthwile to do

I dont think he is talking about ebay. I think he is talking about like private sellers on here.

your phone needs longer record time. LOL Isnt that the worst feeling ever. lol

Thanks Phil. When you gonna get rid of that rusto paint? Its great for like a month or so and then you want it to be better. lol

Im not going to write out what all happened to my car again so here is the build thread link http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=135703 As for the door jambs and under the deck lid.. They haven't been done yet. Normally you would spray them first and then do the car. Im on a need to get it done scenario so i will have to mask every thing off and do it later. Not the best way to do it but its the way im having to do it. And for the price on every thing? If you just want material costs like all my primer fillers and sand paper and all that i would say i as around the 600-800 mark. i have all the receipts around here somewhere but i dont really care to add them up lol

what coil are you using? I had one go bad on me once and i was at a loss and couldnt figure it out. I got lucky and threw another coil on it and it fired right up.

Yep there is a purpleish pearl in it

I hope you didnt drive it like that... Your missing a spindle pin nut!!! lol That sure is pretty though

Sorry I kinda came across as an ass. Sorry about that its just you didnt mention it and it kinda seemed like just one of those "Oh i broke something. What is it" threads where they dont even bother to try to figure it out for themselfs

I bought 3 quarts of paint and a gallon of clear with all the reducers and activators. That was more than enough to paint my car. I still need to paint my flares and jambs but i have probably around a quart left. And i only used about half my clear. I did 3 coats of each 3 paint, 3 clear Oh ya i spent around $300 for all of that. I think it was money well spent.

Its not really a secret its actually in a different thread. Ill tell ya it isnt Brickyard. And yes it is a lot nicer than my roll on job. Yes ill have alot of wet sanding to do but i think it will go alot better and the end results will be MUCH better. Its not perfect and my body work isnt perfect but ehh ill have to live with it for now.

Yeah I know i have alot of work ahead of me but still glad i got it done. It wont be a show car its just my DD. Yes the flares and fender mirrors are going to be painted body color. Yes Calgary280zt that is the same car that was painted in rustoleum. But i took the car down to metal so im not sure how much help i would be to ya unless you did the same. Yes that was an exhaust fan that honestly worked to well. When i completely closed up the booth it would suck the whole thing in. and that was with 4 huge filters on the back wall. So i had to keep the back wall open a bit so it would work and thats why i got so much debree on my paint. Wish i could of made it better but since a hurricane is going to come today i had to get it done. If your going to make one. A) only buy the really thick plastic thats 6mil i think. Make sure you put all your plastic on the outside of your frame. I tried to put some of it on the inside and then staple it and that didnt work. Oh well live and learn and then learn to never do your own body work lol. Also i used the Nason Base clear system. Its made by Dupont. Its just there lower paint and I could not have been happier spraying it. It went on very well I didnt get any runs in the paint or the clear and im not that experienced. I even got it on pretty thick once and i thought for sure it was going to run but it didnt.

When you open up megatune do you get a rpm signal?? If you do then your CAS should be working. If not then you found your culprit.

Thanks guys. ill get the flares painted tomorrow. And on the color.... IM NOT TELLING!!!!! lol dont want anybody to copy it lol
