Its running good, needs some tuning still. IC is piped, BOV is on, and the valve covers are still green!! (haha John!). Should be on the road within the next week or 2. Depends on the BOV, for whatever reason doesn't want to hold vaccum and open. Thanks John (JMHZ2401) Robert, Packy, Bill and Jean (yeah right!) for all the hard work today to make this happen! I hope to have the car at the May Jacksonville meet!






Don't mind the monsterous hose clamp, that will be fixed tomorrow. Its all we had at the time!





And this is Jean *acting* like he is working. Really all he did was eat and sleep. Seriously!

Hey, some guy painted your valve covers and water pump pulley funny colors.

Those cars are fun. My dad's old shop was only Z cars, last one he had was a very nice '89 300ZX, but I've been around those things forever.

The green is love hate I've noticed. I only did it because everyone and their uncle does red, blue or black. And hopefully while they are laughing at the green they will over look the HX35 under it

Looks cool, just oddball.

I plan to do my next engine for the truck gloss white, with black wrinkle for trim parts. It will either look really cool, or terrible. Only one way to find out

no pathy manifold. no care

I don't feel like having my hood cut up or propped up to clear it. the gutted will do just fine for now.

Glad you got it on the road, I'm ready to start tuning

OzzyruleZ

Well sir, we need to figure out why NIStune won't stay connected and fix the severe boost creep issue I have. I mean I like 18psi at 3500rpm but the question is will it continue to climb? I don't want to know

it wont win an award for prettiest engine any time soon! glad to hear its up and running though. ive always been partial to the 300z's

OzzyruleZ

John doesn't like the green either. But it distracts the eyes from whats important!

So next is an external wastegate I guess. It pegged the boost gauge. 20psi before 5000RPM with the wastegate open... Who woulda thought I would be complaining about to much boost.

nice toy you have, i wish i could find a project i could get lost in for a while

OzzyruleZ

Thank you sir, it has been a hell of a project too. They will definitely keep you busy for a while. And eat all your money

Here are some more pics of it today with the front end on and it washed up.
