:icon18: He's like a kid in a candy shop :excited:

The numbers.

Factory battery= 33lbs.
AntiGravity battery with bluetooth tracker = 8lbs.

The Install:
Not too bad. Just have to move battery towards the cables to ensure it catches the hold down on the corner. I had to crimp my negative terminal connector to ensure a solid clamp on the terminal.

Man, this thing turns my car over crazy fast to start. With E85, that's a good thing. Especially when it get's cold. The Bluetooth tracker APP is cool as hell. No
more wondering where the charge is when the car sits for a little bit.

I need to hook up the CTEK battery tender cables. I will do that later. I can no longer use a regular battery charger.

Let me know how well you think the factory tie-down clamp holds it.. if I should make a billet one or if stock is plenty adequate. (PS Folks, we sent him the one in the GT-R form factor case, so its noticeably smaller in the front-to-back dimension from a Z battery)

Phunk, I had to move the battery all the way to the front so the tie down would hit the battery like the stock battery for it to hold. I barely got it to tighten down. I would make one that way I know it won't go anywhere.

I will shoot over some pictures later today via DM on Instagram.

Be careful with the material you use for the tie-down. I picked up one of those ZSpec billet aluminum battery tie downs a number of years ago and it was close enough to the battery terminals that it was significantly corroded within days.

This is a sealed battery. Not sure what kind of cheap battery you had. Did you buy it used off of Craigslist?

I found it in the parking lot. Why do you ask?

Enjoying the battery so far. It cranks super fast. My old battery was done. Glad I bought it.

10 years ago I could have never been excited about an expensive battery or a new bag of socks. With wisdom you learn to appreciate the simple things. :tiphat:

If we get them powder coated or anodized, I suspect that should resolve any concerns like that by removing conductivity from the surface.

Phunk, did you ever get your new Twin pump with surgetank setup finished? Boy I need one.

Reverse the tie down

Have Phunk make a proper one is even better.

Called one of my good friends to go for a ride. I could swear he chit himself.
LMAO!!! Depends from here on out are manditory.

Well, Nitish21 on Instagram just popped his headgaskets and is pushing coolant. One of the guys I tried to help. Ain't that a bitch. It was the guy Boosted Performance posted about making 886whp on a DE. That motor didn't last a month.

Thats really sad to hear. Do you have some info on the build? Open / closed deck? Stock head stud size? Type of gasket?

Doesn’t matter it all fails

Open deck and L19 head studs. Not sure what head gasket he used. Doesn't matter anyway. It was a ticking time bomb.

Nitish21 is still not going to listen, I just have that feeling. He will end up being one of the many that have disappeared. The last laugh is actually on him.

I am enjoying the JarBlue approach. I am poking him in the eye and laughing at him.

Mission Accomplished, I got kicked off his Instagram page. LMAO!!!!!!!!
I don't think he liked it when I told him he didn't know chit and he was a dumb MF'er.

Check this out. Valve float on video.

In case you guys don't know on a turbo car this can be a major issue. With the additional boost pressure put on the back of the intake valve it can induce valve float and a loss of HP. It can also destroy you valvetrain. I have always known what valve float is but I have never seen it first hand. The video above does just that. We don't see it that much because on most turbo engines the boost pressure is keep low. Crank it up to 30psi and it can be a major problem.

Car is still doing great. No issues except for the lack of traction. Ordering new rear tires shortly.

You guys always talked about tires being a major expense but I really didn’t understand how bad it was...

Two R888r's 325/30/19's are a little over 1k shipped to my house. No install. Lasted a little over 8k. They are done. I still have some tread but they are heat cycled out. No traction.

The other news is I am working on going to a MOTEC M150 next year. The car is just too much of a handful to not have it. Boost by gear and a real motorsports traction control is very much needed for safety. Our chassis is good for 700whp. Over that and it becomes very dangerous. Playing has to be limited.

Going sideways in 4th at 25psi of boost is not much fun. That is the only time the car just about got away from me. The speed you ask, I have no idea, I wasn't looking at the speedo.

Why did my little incident happen? I got pissed because it was spinning and left my foot in it. I got away with it that time.

Jon said mine got really floaty and then snap steered on him a little bit on kill when he was out in it making sure everything was right...which is why it's still on wastegate. This car was the fastest thing I'd ever driven when I picked it up stock, so each liitle bolt on furthered that. Finally boosted and 534 is a helluva jump from 364.

~800 on bald tires has to be an experience:icon14:

It's an experience, that is for sure. Take your time and go slow. You have to learn what it is mostly likely to do. A better diff will help you tremendously. Wavetrac or OS Giken is your next mod. The factory VLSD is very unpredictable.

If we ever meet up I will take you for a ride.

Wavetrac has been in the car since just before ZDayz last year, I just have exactly 0 aero on the car

Good!!!!! 900whp is crazy. My tires aren't bald. LOL, They have been well used.

New rear R888r's are ordered. I get a good quality heat cycle done on them in Arizona by Tirerack. That is why they have lasted as long as they did. It has to be 65 deg or higher before you can mount them. The sucky part, it is going to be too cold next week. They will sit in the garage until the time comes. Crapola....

Here is the link to the heat cycling process tirerack uses.

Have you tried NT05 or mickey et street ss?
