Wanted to introduce myself...350Z TT.

Hi everyone, I think a bunch of you know me from my350z.com where I post quite a bit..mostly on F/I related topics. Just thought I would join the site and see what the F/I folks are up to in the G35 world, and offer any help or insight i may or may not have in regards to F/I. I am in the process of rebulding my engine with forged internals a bunch of goodies...I'll make sure to keep you all posted...if you are interested.

Here is a library of some of the build-up pics.

Hth,

Sharif

I thought you built it already...bottom end? Did you blow it? What gives! Welcome, Sharif! You should join us on the 19th for the dyno day if you can. See SoCal forum for details.

Nope...no fireworks. Just doing the prudent thing and building the bottom end BEFORE she blows. Car was running just fine at 8.5psi and about 415whp...but i didnt want to press my luck. So we stripped it down and are going through the long process of engine build up. Should be great...almost done.

PS: I didnt hear about the dyno...I will be in town..I'll try to stop by..

can you PM me the details or email me

I couldn't tell in the pictures, what kind of condition where the pistons when you took them out of the engine?

Looks like you might have yourself a beast pretty soon. Congrats.

Yo whats up Sharif, I'm probably going to need some of your knowledge very soon. I've been reading a lot of your FI posts on my350z which is very helpful on my end. My ride is at Street Image right now being worked on by Eric since i ran into a little problem.
