Mikelly Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Underside of the car is buttoned back up and now I'll start focusing again on the wiring for the fuel injection and try to troubleshoot the issues with signal/spark/fuel blah blah blah...

fastzcars Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) Oh my goodness mike! Those wheels look sick! . I plan on running those same flares, what are the offsets on those bad boys?

Mikelly Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Wheels are 11.5X18 rear with 5 3/8th. I have coil overs and shaved perches. Fronts are 10X18 with 5inch backspacing. Thanks Man! Someone will enjoy the attention to detail and amount of money spent when it finally goes on sale! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Didn't get anything accomplished on the car yet this weekend...Mike Edited June 5, 2015 by Mikelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 The car is going to a shop on Tuesday. EB3 Motorsports previously did the dyno tuning on the car with the carb in place. I'm taking the car to them, since they sold me on using the FAST product. I'll get the car buttoned up this weekend and loaded up into the car trailer. I know some guys aren't going to understand this. This is a DIY site, afterall. However, my strengths, my priorities, and my desire to wrap this project up are driving this decision. It's no different than hiring a trash service or lawn care. At this point I just need the car done so I can start the task of shaking it down at the track or selling it to its new owner...

Mikelly Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Decided to change up on the rear hatch... Really big props to the guys at http://www.zccjdm.com/catalog.php/azcarbum/dt43198/Datsun_A_Series_Engine_Parts_ This rear 5 inch spoiler is amazing! Loading it in the car trailer for tomorrow's drop off with EB3... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 tuff z Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Brian hooked me up with the same rear spoiler-only in white! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehelix112 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Oh since you're there Mike, did you take any pics mocking up the spoiler when the wing was still on? As I know you know, they two are complimentary, and I've wondered what they'd look like together for a while now. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Dave, I sure didn't... Busy day trying to get the car wrapped up to send off to the tuner.. David, Like minds think alike. I can't wait until I get the tires mounted up on the CCWs and can get the whole package out in the light for some shots! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garvice Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Mike, That looks a hundred times better. I wasn't a fan of your rear wing but figured it was function over form. This wing looks cool. Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Dropped it off with EB3 today. Was a BIG hit at the shop and in the surrounding businesses. I shoulda taken some pics of it in the sunlight... Really freaking hot with the new rear spoiler! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 That's a nice looking rear spoiler. I wish we'd had one for the wind tunnel! jt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 So they've had it for all of a day and they have everything done except that they have no injector function. They pulled the injectors and are going to check their flow and function... Probably have the car back by the weekend at the rate they're going!!

bjhines Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I do like that spoiler. Post up some picks of the new F.I. system..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 BjHines, pics of the efi are back on Page 17. Tedder, I'm actually going to put it in A2 if I keep it. We'll find out what worked and what didn't. As that plan comes together I'll post more info and see if anyone else wants to piggyback and share the cost/time in the facility.

Mikelly Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'll let you guys know... There are three individuals interested in the car, so who knows... If a serious buyer is going to pony up to buy the car, it will go. Otherwise, I'll continue to develope the car as we can... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjhines Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Well.. You just considerably improved it's value. That's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
