  1. I will make the cap nice looking. Somesort of SK logo. I will keep it simple, but add some flare. The casting is pretty rough, first step is to knock that down. My local engine shop has a huge vibratory polisher. I might try that first.
  2. My oer/ SK intake plan is going to be perfect. Basically I’m looking for a clean way to do iac and pcv. I will have a plate machined to cap this faux balance bar. Then tap each runner for 1/4 or 3/8. I love the oer/ Sk linkage. The IAC and PCV will be done on the bottom out of sight. This is what the Sk/ oer intake look like under that cap. Casting is a little rough for my personal tastes. I will use a Bosch 0280140551 IAC.
  3. I did the same, but i ended up hating the B&M so i went back to stock with fresh bushings.
  4. Steve Bonk cam, he is a high end cam regrinder.
  5. I am offset grinding a LD28 crank to get me 84.5 stroke. I will use eagle toyota rods and custom pistons from rebello. Then Datsun spirit valves on a ported and polished E31. 88.5 bore on either an F54 or N42 block. I will be going NA with 45s ITB. Bonk cam. Should be fun and I think it will be close to a 3.2L.
  6. We purge tig weld a lot at work, (I own a brewery) it uses a lot of gas, but welds are amazing.
  7. Nicely done! I like the head cooling mod and the push to lock a lot.
  8. I have a brand new hoke trigger for sale. If anyone is looking, for a stock 240z pulley.
  9. Interesting. If you have the money the zcargarage kit is pretty amazing.
  10. This might end up being more expensive then the Z Car setup. Which I have. Curious what they will use for the ebrake.
  11. I did the same thing, works perfectly as my home signal for my EFI system and full sequential. I found a NOS one on ebay.
  12. Well my stock original 1971 series 1 tach works with my fully sequential r35 coil on plug Efi system (haltech elite 750) . I literally ran the coil positive out from the ecu through the white wire with a red band then out to the coils through tachs white wire with a black band. Nothing else was needed. Added about 15” to my entire positive for the coils. I like how the tach feels and reacts the same as it always has. This would work on any 240z tach and a rb swap or aftermarket Efi with COP and fully sequential. I don’t know if it would work on wasted spark or not. Thanks Dirk Stoop for pushing this way vs the others. Where I got the idea https://www.viczcar.com/…/9515-getting-a-240z-tacho-to-wor…/
  13. I finally got my fully sequential ITBs to fire and run! She is a little rough. But pretty amazing base tune and help from Richard Boyk! I can’t wait to get a fully dialed tune running. Worst part is my fuel pump is super loud.
  14. Tioga, looking awesome! Well I like the look better! Still a little busy.
  15. I gave up on mounting the fuel pressure regulator on the engine bay walls, I hated the amount of hoses that crossed over the engine bay. I ended up buying a radium -6 direct mount FPR (very nicely made). Then I had an adapter machined to match the 14mm fittings that the Jenvy fuel rail uses. I should be able to split both sides of the FPR to my 7mm return and my 5mm return. I think I came out great. Very neat design by radium, it can be mounted in any direction.
  16. I am going to attempt to move my FPR to the drivers side and use it. That way I am hard lines under the car. I will T the return from 7mm to 5mm and return via the stock 5mm line and the 7mm vapor vent line. Then use the 5/16 to feed the ITBs. Hopefully it works! I bought some 7mm efi fuel hose from belmetric. So that should give me a good amount more flow. Hopefully my push lock fittings work with it. My FPR mount was waiting to fail, i cut a lot of the strength out. So I will need to fabricate another and put it in my stock coil spot. Should end up looking pretty clean and simple.
  17. I took to a local radiator shop. They actually said they did it all the time. I was told its a common thing for radiator shops to do.
  18. The black tank is mine. The other was some image from google. I had mine, acid cleaned, then sealed. Then the exterior is powder coated.
  19. My stock lines are 5mm return and 8mm supply. So the Return gets a 3/16 line. Which is pretty tiny.
  20. First major setback. The return stock hardline is too small and is causing pressure to build up. Lowest I can get is 75psi. My plan is reuse the 8mm fill line as my new return then run 3/8 new flexible hose from the pump to the fuel rail. Then 5/16 line from the FPR to the 8mm stock line back to the tank. Then Y the 8mm (5/16) hardline to stock 5mm return and the 10mm tank vent.
  21. So cool, I can't wait to see it done.
  22. Telsa swapped Porsche is my next build I will attempt (If I can find the money). https://www.zelectricmotors.com/ They don't use the model 3 batteries. They all model S battery packs. https://www.evwest.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=4&products_id=463&osCsid=do45arn6gds71gq6vo893ikdk5 You can buy pretty much everything you need to swap them into a VW or Porsche. Pretty neat stuff. Telsa Motor https://www.evwest.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=8&products_id=476&osCsid=do45arn6gds71gq6vo893ikdk5
