The car wont be up for sale until it gets here and I decide to sell it lol

Well I'm telling you right now you can't sell it without at least 1 dyno run/vid! :mad:



I wanna see you hit your mark! :tup:

Haha

Looks like another one bites the dust

Not me! If i Had 140k to spend on 1 car it would be this one. Good luck with the sale and I hope this beast finds a good home!

We are happy to report that the manifold is on the car and fitting beautifully. Unfortunately, with all the changes we made, we are forced to redesign and make new fuel rails. The fuel rails have to be fabricated from blank billets and are in the works. Once we have fuel rails, we should be able to fire up the car and move forward. Here are some pictures of where we're at.

Sam

Nice!

awsome work as always Sam

:iagree: :tup:

Sucks about the fuel rails...

Sam, I know this may be a silly question, and forgive me if the explaination got lost in the sea of :bs: obscuring this thread...

But what exactly are the differences between the VR38 manifold and the VQ37 manifold? Is it purely the material/design/legths of runners, or are there a series of reasons why this will be a much better improvement?

Just curious how this one say stacks up vs the stock manifold and say the Motordyne manifold as well??

Those of you comparing the build to an italia 458 did not read my original post... At the price that we were discussing as a fair market value for this car I.e. $120k the power performance could not be beat by most exotics... A built 700hp gtr would cost around this price and it would be a close match in a drag race... But again there are many variables which could change te outcome. I am not taking everyones comments as criticisms however some newer members here made accounts specifically to rag or as you would say keep things real... Honestly, I could care less. We are pushing the countries of the 370z platform with new ideas, concepts and technology. For you newer members it has been mine and my partners in this build along with UA motorsports and it's partners who have been innovating and bringing new products and technology advancements to this market and platform. No expense was spared on this build so that this build could be the very best you could do with te 370z platform. Some may not agree with my release of info on the build but that's your issue. Alot of the crap that's in this thread comes from garbage that isn't helpful to the thread. Their has been a reason why I don't post much on the thread tired of the garbage that seems to make it into threads like these.

Oh good. More things to by for the car.
manifold. fuel rail. return fuel system.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

now if i only had my stage 2 SC. and the traction control.

Sam do not put this on my account.

Wow what a domino effect. Mike did mention something about custom fuel rails for his larger injectors. So even with the injectors for Stage 1 and 2 kit, these custom fuel rails will be required for this new manifold? Just wanted to be clear...

Thanks for the heads up. :tup:

Digi I will let Sam explain in detail but from my conversation with him is simply the fact that the mounting points are not in the same location for the fuel rails and thus new ones have to be designed to fit and align properly. This will probably be sold as a kit or an add on option.
