Spikey,

You might get better luck with the technical information over at the 350 forums, those guys are a little more hardcore about this stuff.

You guys are really making me feel like working the LONG hours on this car that it deserves.
I showed this to everyone at the shop since they are all shipping off for Sema this weekend. They are going to check out some of the info down there and see what they can find out that might help our decision

As for the V-Mount Setup our other drift car already has it set-up on a 240sx.....Let me tell ya though on a G35 it would be 10X easier .

MC2 which 350Z forums should i be checking out for more info
Honnestly if anyone feels like shooting me some links to other reputable G35/350Z sites im sure the more people see the car the more chance we have for sponsorship offers.

We are not bouncing off the rev limiter just the entire car is BOUNCING because of the cut springs so it sounds like we are on the limiter all the time. Not enough power thiough to bunch off the rev limiter
We are mostly in 3rd and 4th gear....THAT REMINDS ME what is up with the G35 gearing. 3-4 is like almost no difference! Is that normal or just Marco imagining thins. At higher speeds like around the oval hes top of 4th i know. Give it some time with the high HP on a few other track well be using 5th judging by the low end TQ this thing can generate when you give the VQ some *****.

Silverbolt: Thats why i love the option #2 n/a wild power. I dont know if you have ever heard a V6 with ITB's also. That stuff is WILD sounding and can be heard miles away. We also saw the AEBS kit making the motor a 4.3 which is also WOW amazing but its also extremely expensive. Honnestly the n/a setup is the most expensive setup of them all i am realising. Only time will tell and honnestly what kind of sponsors we can find.
My comment regarding bouncing wasn't because I saw the car physically bouncing, but because in the vid, it sounds like it...thanks for clearing that up and thanks for the steering wheel info.

One week after Sema update

Sadly in this business one thing keeps you high and one thing only: sponsors...

We havent really come up with anything and things are not looking great since everyone wants us but no one seems to want to give anything away. We are trying to look around for sponsors if anyone has any ideas dont be shy.

Havent lost hope yet
