Xylemer Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Your car is beautiful. I hope my Z looks as good as yours when I am finished. I have a few questions about your set-up. What are the specs on your wheels and tires? What front air dam are your running? I stumbled across your car and it has got me fired up. You have done such a great job with your Z.

boostiswhatsfordinner Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 WoooTT!!!! Bump it back up cause it deserves it. I love to see that lots of blood, sweat, and tears that have gone into this car, you can see it in the small things and the cleanliness of the motor and quality of the swap. Im looking forward to just driving my car let alone an RB. But I have one sitting nearby and i must say that i am very tempted. Amazing job man. Two thumbs up.

RS Speed Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 MINI UPDATE: Gonna start the car today after being down for a month. Following was done. Rear disc conversion, upgraded master cylinder, redid the intercooler piping on the driver side so its one piece, recirculated BOV, installed clear timing cover, carbon fiber coilpack cover, switched to external fuel pressure regulator, installed xenon headlights, extended intake out of engine bay, rewired a few odd ends I didn't like and tucked the harness and ignitor behind dash and some small things... Also put the cage in but it was before the car went down for the revamp. On to some pics, ill get better ones once I tie up the loose ends and clean her up.

T S30 H Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 RS Speed, can I get some pictures of your fuel system set up? Where did you pick up the oil pan and pick up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Speed Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 I'll see if I could snap some pics of the fuel setup but its pretty simple. I was originally going to upgrade to a cell or surge tank but I've had no problems with this setup so I might just leave it alone. Pretty much a feed from the original drain of the tank going to a external pump with pre and post filters. Ran new 5/16 feed and return lines following the the factory hardlines (didn't trust the 40 year old lines). Running a stock RB fuel rail (525cc injectors) which is drilled and tapped for a fitting so I can run an external regulator which returns fuel to the original tank pickup so it puts the fuel back in the bottom of the tank. I kept one vent on the tank and one big line which connects to the fuel filler section and got rid of the factory plastic box in the fender which has a billion lines running to it. So far so good, I just keep the tank over a 1/4 tank and have had no issues yet even at the track. I was probably one of the last few people to get the OEM rear sump oil pans and pickups. I got one locally at Erics Performance when the whole discontinued oil pump situation happened, I guess I just got lucky when I called them and he had one in stock even though they didn't have it listed.
