twoeightythreez Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Sweet...... Phil, your my Z hero. I bow down before you, seated next to the Z father, the mighty Chris. Here's my 7psi 0-100 run! It's 11 degree air, and if u turn it up you can hear the tires chirp into third and almost feel the clutch slip when I hit 5th...time for upgrade! I'm wondering...is it possible to get a custom HYDRAULIC grind for a P90A head? I like the hydraulics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonZ Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Another great vid Phil! I like the ending burn out. The slow-mo sounded like a jet plane. Was that the real audio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrett76Zt Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Sounds like he's got the parts for a fast car! Tell him he needs to get his tools out for some tranny swapping when he turns the boost up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell him he needs to get his tools out for some tranny swapping when he turns the boost up. He's been through 3-4 trannys, he has a 240sx 5 speed thats waiting to go to the machine shop, then in his car. He said when he takes it to the dyno he going for the mid 400 whp area. Me, and my camera will be there!! It will be a couple weeks before It ready for that though I would think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete280z Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Great video! I've seen that car around town, but never seen what it can do. Can't wait to see it when he turns the boost up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete280z Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 How exactly did you hold the camera, steer the car, and shift during that run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil, although its a very nice shifting, easy to find replacement tranny, I wouldnt go through the trouble for a higher HP L motor. I came up on 18psi in 3rd gear once and shreaded every tooth right off it with a 240sx tranny. If he's goin for the big numbers with a manual, start thinking z32 . . . I hit 26psi every day with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoeightythreez Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Held camera and wheel in my left hand. Camera was steadied against the dash. (which is why when I hit 95-100 it starts shaking so bad, road is rough) Right hand was free for shifting. Phil...the link for the gauge website of which I was part of a pilot program (which only means that you pay less than I did for the gauges...and you don't wait as long since the tooling is made already) is http://www.speedhut.com You can select between 5 different colors, 5 different fonts, and can choose between reverse EL (like mine) or standard EL (numbers are black at night) You can also send them custom graphic to place on the faces, so you could have your gauges say "get in, sit down, shut up and hold on" if you wanted to. Yes, it comes with the ancilliary gauges and the clock face too. You have to modify the voltmeter gauge a mite but it's easy. (You have to trim the top for the voltmeter sweep and drill a hole...carefully...for the alternator light.) It won't affect the EL part. I suggest supergluing the faces down....they don't lay there nicely on thier own. Speedhut also sells a full line of gauges that you can get made to match your faces! (As you can see my AFR and Boost gauge match my speedo, tach, fuel gauge, temp gauge...etc.) I think they're 80 bucks for the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
