marcg Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I know I don't post here as much as I could, but here is an update of my 450Z project. Since I got the car back from the paint shop (06 Dodge R/T mango) I've run in 2 autocrosses and one track event in the wet. The car is very strong in every way, although after the first event I found that the right front shock is "toast". I don't believe that I have bottomed it out. Still sorting some things out. The VH45DE engine is running very strong especially since I got the NICO ECU in it. It revs like my old L30 engine, yet has tons of power everywhere in the power band. I now have to make the roll over bar and then tackle how I'm going to integrate the stock wiring into my aftermarket fuse box. After which I'll throw in the an interior. My hope is to have it street ready for the Z Car Convention in Cleveland this year. Anybody from this group going? http://www.cardomain.com/ride/563982 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Thats awesome sounding with the inserts in the exhaust. Imagine what it could do with some upgraded camshafts!!! Sounds wicked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boatdude13 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 This guy deleted all of his information. There is no build write up that I have found. His cardomain no longer exists and his youtube channel doesn't exist. Neither does his photo account. As someone who is about to do the same swap, I'm upset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
