I like stealth. Don't let them know that you are carrying a "big stick".

In a couple of weeks I'm planning on surprising the Ahole in the M3 that keeps aggravating me. He can slightly pull away from me now. Is he in for a big surprise!

BTW: TopgunZ has been stellar working with me through the trials of installing a Stillen kit and his A2A at the same time. Great guy!

That M3 will look like it's standing still compared to stock.

Just take a piece of string or tape and mark it from the top of one pulley to the top of the other that are normally on there. Then do that from the same tops except run it down and under the added pulley. Subtract the first measurement from the second and add that number to the overall length of our serp pulley. Doing this in my head I think it would add about 6"'s or so but that is pretty ballparked.

I just finished these up this morning, had them off the car so why not paint them right?

Also guys, if your oil pressure gauge is reading below 14-17 psi at idle, your oil pan will be full of gasket material! and the oil gallerys will be blown out.

Check your oil pressure guys, mine was at about 5PSi, it wouldn't trigger the Low oil pressure light either.

15hp/ 33 tq I believe it had more in it but the tuner clearly didn't know the 370Z well. Seb is tuning the car when it's back together so we will see what he can make with it.

Paint yes, Not a rattle can though.

dupoint ceramic high temp primer - 2 coats. 60 psi line pressure

I used Dupoint Black, code # LZ9Y - PHANTOM BACK PEARL. 3 coats. 33-45PSI depending on angle.

mixed 30% paint 70% harderer.

Finished with 3 coats of clear - 60 psi

its not perfect, pretty dam close.

the next step would be wet sand and polish, but good luck getting a polisher in those groves of the timing cover.

Milkcow and Z84 have dynos lined up for this week so we will see soon.

EVOHUNTER 06-14-2016 09:12 AM

Sebz is down Thursday next week, so ill have my final tune done, with dyno sweets from
water to air - air to air and air to air with this new impeller.

milkcow500 06-14-2016 09:25 AM

I'm logging 4th gear WOT runs today for Seb. I'm going to see what he says in regards to the progress we are making, but for now, it's looking pretty good.

Unless something ***** on me, I should be on the dyno on sunday. The dyno runs low, but I can compare to my previous numbers at least, since it was done on the same dyno.
