She has twins, greddy twins that is...
Yes, but the forecast looks like rain for the next week (even on the forth
), so unless my new US tails come in I can't pull off my JDM ones until the forcast looks better

Tim,
You have the AAM Stage 2 fuel system. That changed it over to a RFS, correct? My question is, was the return line long enough to mount to the top of the tank? Or did you have to get a longer line? I'm thinking of getting the AAM Stage 0 kit for mine (just to help out and be more consistent). But, I'm just making sure that the line is going to be long enough (I'm assuming that's the only difference).
Thanks.

I have a CJM return kit. The AAM kit is just the Bosch race pump, surge tank, etc and requires you to have a return kit before you install it.
Charles (CJ Motorsports) makes a sedan specific return kit with a longer line. Go with that one!
Article is online. Hopefully I'm not reposting in here. hahaha

Thanks!! 
I hate that engine shot. It looks 100X better now. I'm finishing up a wire tuck this week but before that it looked like this which is still a lot better.
(just with half the wire and hoses gone)

Nichols AutoFab and I made a new 1-off coolant tank which looks a lot better. The main harness is gone as is the one on the passenger side and the brake booster line. I'm going to get rid of all the blue hose and go with stainless as well as clean it up a lot more. Money is tight so I'm trying to clean up what I can with just labor.

But I did get a good deal on a set of DSS axles before money got tight so once they are on I can go back to the drags and see what the car can do.... at least on street tires with a proper launch.

I removed the hard pipe for the brake booster. I ran and single stainless earl's hose into the battery area where it goes out to all three BOV's, EBC, FPR, Boost Gauge, UTEC, and then goes through a check valve over to the brake booster.
The rad overflow is not polished yet so I'm going to finish polishing that and tuck the driver's side wires before I take pics.
When's your car going to be back out Mike? I have heard so much about new parts.

Cool – nice route for the brake booster line.
As for my car – its getting plastic surgery - getting rid of lines and lifting & tucking... you know, the typical cosmetic surgery type stuff
I'm thinking it might be done by this weekend - but I have learned to have no expected date... The "parts" are engine bay stuff that I will complete when this project is done... caskyline has been very helpful with his masterful engine bay tricks... when all this is done it will be quite a different car, but purposefully subtle. I might consider getting the power steering reservoir you are using – and would like to find a decent rad overflow that can be black chrome plated… do you think your design will be available later?

The DSS 350Z/G35 coupe axles fit the sedan?

As far as I know they do. I believe they are the same part number.
I'll find out in a couple weeks when I try to install them. LOL
As far as I know I'll be the first to put them on a sedan.

To do it right I would have to repaint the whole car satin black. I love the look but it's not my style. 
I do want the new Volk G2's in that ghost black soooooo bad!
