It was time to change flushing oil away. I saw nothing special except oil colour. Not good thing using E85 ethanol fuel in first starts and not getting oil warm enought...

After that. New oil and filter in. Bleeding rear brakes and ready to make some mapping :)

With my friend helping online we made whole new fuel and ignition maps and it runs smoother again. Throttle pedal was limited to 50% at first.

Rear brakes are too small and got some fire problems in brake pads :D but soon it will be ready to dyno. Boosting only 0.55bar at now.

 

Have to try next with full throttle :)

Some video again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kIHVTjW73U

Ride height check after exhaust build. Everything looks Ok. Front airdam is the lowest part of car.

I liftet suspension up 25mm after that. Looks doesnt matter at this time.

 

After some testing with cardboard and different colours I desided to go with headlight covers (inside black)

Friend helped me with sticker (or what it is called. :D  )

Even headlight cover brackets painted black (it will need black screws too)

That's gonna be louder for the driver than for the by-stander. Exhaust exiting under car is super loud inside the car. Can you find a way to turn it out? Maybe the turbo will absorb some sound?

 

Yes, turbo absorb sound and 6cyl is not loudest anyway. Mostly when its used I will drive helmet in head :)

In dyno we will find out what difference it makes in power curve.

Then assembled doors. Still missing some weatherstripping.

Just wondering why you went with the numbers instead of leaving it plain?

 

I wanted to see how that thing looks what I have planned many years ago. This is not regular clean classic Z so I want some oldschool racing-look :)

There might come some gold / black stripes to hood and roof also. Stickers are always easy to remove if I don´t like them.

 

When it finally goes to trackdays, looks doesnt matter any more.

Thanks. I had bad luck in first dyno session. One day before car started running with only 5 cylinder. In dyno we tried everything (spark plugs, wires), but one coil was broken. Now I got more spare parts (I bought 3 new coil) and that should not happen again.

Car is now running fine again..
