yosip1115, nice thread so far. How long have you been working on cars?
I wish my G was the color of yours. Seriously. I'm thinking blue chrome vinyl soon. Keep the edges tucked so it doesn't look funny with the hood popped. Here is something I'm proud of from last weekend... Lotta wires attach to that bad boy haha. They're all ran, zipped, soldered, done right. No corners cut. Innovative SGC-1 DONE. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...6de727375c.jpg I'm lined up to have another huge weekend. I actually made my tentative appointment to tune at RT in PA on the 2nd of October. :BOOBIES::JAMIN::11: |
Fluids are on order:
4 gallons of AMSoil 0W-30 w/ 2x Amsoil filters Amsoil PS fluid Redline MT-85 Pennzoil VLSD gear oil GL-5 OEM Nissan coolant I had to order a rebuild kit for my AEM fuel pressure regulator, it leaked between the aluminum housing and the inner diaphragm. Everything functioned properly though, it just leaked... But let me tell you, I had a moment when I pressed the 93 octane button for the first time in a year. Other than that, I'm ready to load my base map from RT tuning and turn the key on Friday. :BOOBIES::dance::BOOBIES: I'll have the bumper back from paint early next week, if things go smoothly I'll be able to make some shows this year. Till then, safety wire will do. It looks pretty badass as is. I'll update with numbers, and pics after a detail + some more shiny parts in the engine bay. :thewave: https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...8ad5dcd34d.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...3ae940f7f9.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...6261968642.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...1667a30308.jpg |
Hard to beat the look of a FMIC...just straight sex

Can't beat it but you can add to it! The oil cooler is a nice complimentary piece in the vent on the drivers side.
This may be helpful to someone who is running a 350z bucket in their sedan, or wants to. The nylon fuel line is 5/16. press on AN adapters are available through summit racing. Here is the link for the 350z bucket to AN fitting. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-644123 Then all you need is the 5/16 hardline to AN and an AN union fitting. A jig is required to press the fuel fitting into the hardline, I used a caulk gun modified to fit a brake line flaring tool clamp that grabs the line as you press. You can actually see the tool a bit in this photo. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...4c05202a69.jpg |
It's alive. Started right up first crank. After fixing a small oil leak it treated me well for 175 miles. I can't explain how intense it is to drive with all of the solid mounts/lightweight clutch and flywheel. It pulls in 6th... Hard! I haven't even gone past 1/8 throttle. Insane.
A crowd formed at the store (they were 50 year olds!). Necks broke everywhere, it was a sweet weekend!! Here are some videos, numbers on Friday after the nice drive out to PA. This thing is mean as can be! Already breaks 3rd loose at 50mph @5PSI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5JploaGBkA&feature=youtu.be"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5JploaGBkA&feature=youtu.be |

Looks and sounds great! Update: Had no issues driving to PA or back. It has been raining so I can't use anything lower than 6th gear on pulls. 5th is dangerous... Final numbers were 443/391~ I have a video I will upload when I get it from my buddy. The guys at RT really know their stuff. I'm definitely going back and would recommend them to anyone. I came in with a few vacuum leaks and left with none, just a great tune. It could have made more power but I have 5 PSI springs in the wategates and Vince said you shouldn't or can't really go over 2x the WG spring pressure with an EBC. With 7 or 8 psi springs this car would make a reliable ish 475whp and 420 ft lbs of torque. Vince is an amazing tuner. He set me up with launch control too. It isn't perfect with uprev but it will help me at the strip. I posted this in another thread but it hasn't been moved yet...will delete when I'm ona CPU. I did get to drive in dry conditions since then. Basically you're on the verge of death the entire time you're floored in 4th gear. Fun! Lol... https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...8b2da3c0be.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...4d322fd9f3.png |

What I've been up to
The engine bay is getting there...
I am going to get a polished PS tank and overflow tank, then after that I will be really close to being done. https://youtu.be/6HEeGBC8Ks8 https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...a569085acf.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/g35driv...ebf5ef3320.jpg |
Damn man, coming together nicely.
