You will love the Zcar brake setup.

I can't remember why, but people don't like that dual idler. It has come up a few times.
-
That is TBD. One idea is cutting up the LS3 throttle body. A few shops have done that with good success. It's just not a ton of room on a L series for it. The kincer one is very nice, but 2300 dollars for a 40 dollar motor and a nice housing seems far fetched to me.

ITB DBW update. Installed, feels and looks like stock! I had the stock pedal pad copied, then laser cut. Then welded onto the 350z pedal rod. I also had the pad bent to match my stock pedal and also clocked to match. After that I got it all powder coated to match. Should work great! I can tell it’s not attached to linkage, but it still feels somewhat stock. I like how I can’t really tell it’s not stock without looking hard. IMG_3890.MOV

Laser cut, welded, powder coated and ready to install! Clocking and bend is about perfect from stock. Stoked

A quick little my 240z DBW gas pedal box from a 350z. I drilled the plate to match the 240z one then ground off the pedal stop. Lines up and bolts right in! I get full pedal travel and the stock stop on the floor it’s nicely. Next is buying a stock gas pedal and cutting off the pedal plate and welding it onto this one. Then powder coat it all to match the stock black. All in all very nice and easy.

Well I’m 99% sure I’m going DBW(drive by wire) on my ITB setup. I will be swapping ecus when I get Larry Asp new injectors at the head intake. I was googling DBW pedals and I thought the 350z pedal box looked mighty similar to the 240z one. I got one to check and wow it’s close. I love when manufacturers don’t stray too far from designs. Then googling some more and freaking Etsy sells a direct mount for it! Now I need to change the pedal pad to look stock, and powder coat the housing. But it should be a very simple mod/ install. This will unlock cold starts, progressive throttles and a host of other things like torque control etc… This is all Aaron Neubauer fault for posting about Emtron ecus and their neat tuning method throttle mass flow.

Facebook sucks compared to forums. Did you get a dog!?

Looks awesome! I love that intake.
-
I think you need to fiddle with those butterflies for sure.
-
They sell all sorts of lengths stalks. The spring is the park that is harder to cut. The stalks are easy.
-
I would assume you have a single wire that is shorting to ground. Or drawing too many amps. Can you trace it?
-
How close are the throttle plates matched. With the bleed screw closed.
-
Are you running a balance bar? How close are the throttle plates from each other?
-
Love this build.

I don’t even know what coil bracket version this would be? Number 10? Platinum racing helped me originally when i came up with the design to use the r35 coils on an L series. They helped with which coil to use, wiring harness, springs and stalks, so now we have teamed up to design this bracket. I never liked the giant bend in my coil stalks. I’m not loving the offset brackets, but it’s to keep the design size down and it would use the same aluminum blanks as the rest of their coil brackets. Also thank you Joseph Monti for the help along the way. I think I can live with this overall design.

Something in from Australia! A progressive cam for the overhead bar and my ITB. It would also work with triples. Basically it increases pedal modulation, so this gives you more pedal movement with less throttle blade movement. Should help with street driving and my throttles trying to take huge gulps of air with a tiny amount of pedal travel. Weber kc332 Now machined out to 10mm. Just barely enough room. I had to have the allen bolt turned down.

I dropped it off this am to get machined to 10mm.

Now that is cool!

I would stay away from Slovers if possible, I had to finally block him on facebook. Lots of wild messages in the middle of the night, some nice and some nasty. Very strange. Yoes looks like he does good work. I wonder if he flow benches his stuff.
