Guest RB25DET Z31 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Here are a few pics of my '86 Z31 with a recently swapped RB25. Pages 2 & 3 are the ones you guys would be interested in. Still a long way to go. 1,200 miles with this setup. Only mods: FMIC, 3" exh, 11psi. Running strong and reliable. http://www.esnips.com/web/RBZ31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Awesome! Not really feeling the hood but to each his own! Still that is an awesome swap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dramier Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Well, now there's finally two of us actually driving around. Welcome to the club. I'm on my 2nd year of daily driving my completed swap, and so far she's still a champ. Congrats and post more pics of the completed swap.

sweetleaf Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Congragulations. Very nice, the hood is a little much though IMO... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racinjitter Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 how many Z31's with rb25's are there rollin around in the USA? I guess there is 2 so far, Congrats on the swap! Is anyone going to SEZ this year? I will try my best to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramier Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Ironically, I think all three of the RBZ31's have the same hood. I have the CF cowl hood as well. Pictures don't do that hood justice, it looks alot better in person IMO. Racin, don't you have the same hood as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triple B Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 intresting. i know i have only found 2 carbon fiber hoods and that was one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racinjitter Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I have a carbon fiber hood, however I have a different one. This is the one I have. http://proudear.shop-pro.jp/?pid=796780. I have not been able to install it yet, but it seems to be very high quality. I also have the cf fenders and a few other cf parts. I know of a company locally that will duplicate my hood, but is more costly that buying it form japan and having it shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vashonz Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I saw one last week in Tacoma when I took my car to get tuned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramier Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Now the fenders I have never seen on a U.S. car. I would -love- to have a set of fenders. I may get the hatch later on, but I'm worried about the glass transfer aspect of it. I'm a symmetrics kind of guy, and the offset scoop on the stock hood just hurts my eyes. Only way I can do it is Cowl or flat. I plan to stick a guage under the cowl part old hot rod style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
