ZT-R Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Getting closer to dyno time. Need to figure out what i want to do with my VSS. Damn thing keeps hitting my tunnel and i have knotched a good bit out. Need to look at it and see if i can machine a flat peice instead of the big ass part that sticks out the trans so much... Anyway, more porn... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richracing Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I have the same problem with my VSS. I was thinking about making a block off plate, but there is only one bolt holding it on so I'd be worried about it leaking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 If your gonna do that take the sender out and get a pice of aluminum and stick it on a lathe and make a little plug, that would be easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeoster Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) Your build is turning out great! Thought I'd stop by and see how things were going. I miss my Z but I just don't have the money for fun things anymore. Edited December 21, 2012 by jakeoster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 Just got off the dyno. So far traction at 10psi (more than twins (2860-5) would have gotten me on the rb26) traction is still there. Not gonna give my hp yet but i have a grin for 10psi... Something is wrong with the boost solenoid and we couldn't get it to boost above 10psi. I am on a 4psi wastegate spring and it was just creeping up to 10, the solenoid wasn't doing anything. Granted when I turn up the boost that's gonna be an issue... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garvice Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Very good looking car mate. Holds it's own in the photos with the gtr. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) Its amazing how much bigger the GTR is than the Z. Edited December 29, 2012 by ZT-R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I have been reading on the AEM series 2. Seems there are a few tricks to getting the boost solenoid to work. i don't know what they are but it seem most people have issues getting it to work. Let me know what you find as i will probably have the same issues ;> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 It worked fine on my old setup. They told me to wire it to sensor ground, I'm gonna try chassis ground since its 12v is supplied and not 5v. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richracing Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 What wastegate are you using? I would use a higher psi spring... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Twin tial mvs. I wanted to give it a shot with the lower spring so i could have the remote possibility of traction, but I think I'm gonna have to change to a 1 bar or so.

ZT-R Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 Well that was a job, about 12-13 hours to change two wastegate springs. EHHHHH, but wow this thing is a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Good god this thing has to be in the 9s. I haven't ever been in a car this fast. Who is running the BAMF/ zforce wide rear flares? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZT-R Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 I took one on the ipad but it looks lame, sounds good though. Looks like i'm going the speed limit *which i am, for the legal disclaimer...* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EF Ian Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Sounds like shes a bit of beast. Is it a handfull to drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Straight line its not to bad, but she will jump out in a heart beat if your not careful, no more 1 hand driving for sure... I want to get on the track soon and toss it around some, im sure it will be crazy to try to get on the throttle out of turns with 800hp and a 90mm throttlebody.
