Dang. I wanted to go RB25 or RB26 to "keep it Nissan" but I ended up doing an LS1 setup

Yeah, I just want those boxes to come, I cant sleep haha. My Z is in my garage ready . What V8 are you putting in yours?

Nice, the seats look good in there.

Panzer, to answer what happened to the car: My dad was driving it to work one day like 6am with barely anyone on the road, and this C6 vette rolled up next to him at a light, and they were messing around, and my dad went from a dig with him, and just lost the rear end. You know how RWD cars get really squirrely off the line and swag left and right really bad? Thats what happened only the right rear axle went and he just lost it and went into a utility pole. I was just glad he survived, that was one of the scariest days of my life, and probably his too. As far is the Walbro 255, I am going to be using a fuel cell setup, and I will need an external fuel pump, so I am going to be selling mine. Its still brand new haha.

We didn't take everything that we could have. It was in my garage for over a year and we just wanted it gone. We twisted our right rear axle which caused the wreck. So we left the rear end on the car, and basically everything else was stripped besides the door. What I have left to sell is.... Front and Rear seats (fronts are in great shape, rear are immaculate) 2006 GTO rear bumper 2004 GTO rear bumper 2004 GTO trunk lid Walbro 255 fuel pump RKSport GTO hood (bran new in box, unpainted) Strut tower (1) 2004 GTO 17" rim with tire (undamaged rim and tire) Spare tire (never used) Stock Fuel injectors Thats all i can think of for now, but yeah, I didn't just give it away haha. It was just time to get the car gone.

Are you looking at an in tank Walbro? If so, I have a Walbro 255 for a 2004-2006 GTO that has never been installed or used.

Yeah! I am putting an auto LS1 in my Z, would I prefer a T56? hell yes, do I want to add $1,500 for a good T56 with a nice clutch and flywheel to handle the 8 psi I am going to run through it on my college student budget?... no. Maybe later on in life when I got more funds I'll swap it over haha.

Sweet. When you get the RB post it up!

Its looking nice. When are you going to lower it. It looks like it sits high

I have heard that parts for the RB25 are going to be more expensive and slightly more difficult to get a hold of which makes sense seeing how the S14 is more popular for the demand for parts. But, If I were you I would go RB25, there is more displacement to make bigger power on, and its a new motor, you can have fun and learn some new things. But either way, both motors will be a good candidate, the Z is a light car, so it will move with either one.

RB25. Do it. That is all.

I just ordered my: engine mounting kit transmission mounting bracket drive shaft from JCI. It feels like Christmas again

Alright! Steps 2 and 3 complete! Out with the old, and in with the older! I saw sad to see it go =/

Dooo it! Thats a SMOKIN DEAL

How much do the rims on the yellow Z go for? They are nice

I finally got the engine out of my slaughtered 2004 GTO and boy do I feel 100x better. The wreckers are coming tomorrow to pick up the carcass, and then the Z is going to be backed up into the garage and the mayhem will begin!! :flamedevi Thanks to all the fellow members on the board who helped answer my questions about removing this beast! Mystery motor... Bam! Let me know what yall think!

The CF dash looks awesome. I want.

I ordered mine awhile ago too and I haven't received mine either.

rwwisnesky, If you would e-mail those pictures that would be great. Pm sent.

I am getting close to removing my LS1 from our GTO and putting it on a pallet until I am ready for it to be put into my Z, and I have a quick noobie question. Are these the holes that I am supposed to bolt into to pull the engine from the car? Front left side of engine Back right side

your project is coming along nicely

That engine bay is SEXY. I want mine to get mine painted like that, but only silver. Your project is movin' right along.
