Man how do I get in touch with him? It would be awesome to see if he could bring it to the DNI shootout!!! That little Dime is quick!!!

austin, that emblem looks sweet man!

yeah man I was thinking about it..but right now I have just enough to get all the ods and ends to get her togeather.. I was looking at a EDT motors T3/T4 turbo with 8psi internal wastegate.. they are pretty good price but just dont know about the quality. Thanks for the compliments everyone! and special thanks to thoes who have really helped me out along this jorney!! I cannot celebrate too much yet as the fat lady has not sung hehe.. But it SURE feels good to be looking at a L in my engine bay again!!!

I have a jet hot coated exhaust manifold, stock T3 turbo for now, Scottie GNZ 2.5" downpipe, full 3" mandrel exhaust after that. 440CC injectors, ported shaved intake mani with a 60mm TB.

Awesome then the trip over to GA for DNI should be a nice and quiet one.

Its pretty well broke in already.. (by austin hoke) he he he.. And yes the goal is to have it at DNI!!.. what about you Joel you making it to DNI with us this year??? I think I am going to set up a Z meet in early feb over here in mobile. You need to bring the beast over..

Welp, I finally have the L28et back in my engine bay!!! It went in pretty smooth. mated to the tranny well everything bolted up well. and the best part. Im not filthy greasy. Having a clean engine and engine bay was just awesome!. Next up.. wiring and MS&S install along with Battery Relocation to the rear.. Here are some pics..

Phil, That looks fantastic man!!.. and sounds good tooo! Looks like you have plenty of ground clearence. How loud is it driving with that bullet muffler? I have one of thoes as a premuffler before my magnaflow..I sure hope you guys make it to DNI!

Congrats Man, She sounds really mean and pissed off .. (rubs hands togeather) ..Excellent...

Awesome man!.. I drove a G35 coupe when we were looking for cars. I liked it quite nice. But with haveing a 5YO that makes it tough.. heh.. I have not driven a 350Z but if its anything like the G35 I liked it. We ended up with a IS300 and really like it..

Cool man Im glad they are working out for you. Keep the forum updated on your progress. After I get my MS installed and all running I will do some mileage tests as well and report back.

Good luck I think the most I got out of my Stock ECU around town was 16-17 and hwy driving was 23-24. I put the 311CC injectors in and of course it went down from there heh.. How do you have your stock System setup?

Watch all 4 of the parts. they do a time attack and the GTR puts 4 sec on the 911.. pretty awesome stuff

Wow that is great!!.. I cannot wait to install my MS and get her on the road!!

Thats a great idea!! and your engine bay does look awesome...

Well while I have my Z torn apart I started looking at what was leaking coolent in my passenger footwell. I found it to be my heater control valve. I took the heater core out as well and tested it.. luckily it was not leaking. So I thought about A. getting rid of the heater all togeather.. B. putting a ball valve inline in the engine bay or C.. finding another type of heater valve that would work. I opted for C. I went to the junkyard and found one from a 90 integra. One way valve with a lever and bracket. To install it I cut the stock heater cable alittle shorter, I used male to male barbed fittings to go through the firewall. I had to cut the heater valves bracket some and bent it to where I needed it for the cable. I then put a EYE hole on the cable and slipped it on the lever, I ran 1 90deg hose to one of the barbs, and a straight to the other( I was looking for a very tight radius S hose but just couldnt find one). As for the vacuum hose that went to the stock heater valve Im just going to cap it off. It tests good as far as the opening and closing.. We shall see how it works when I have the Z back up and running. Prices::: Stock replacement 280Z heater valve= 200+.. Junkyard plastic honda valve= 3.00 spare heater hose= free junkyard hose clamps= free with valve male to male barbs = 6.00 So for a grand total of 9.00 Here are some pics.
