I need that. Saw the product that KW makes. Wish it was available for our cars.

[QUOTE=bullitt5897;705516]Ok daniel, get this straight my car has been with Sam and several other shops over the past year. My car has 15k miles on it from about 8 months of driving on it. Now I make it clear to those who do work on my cars... You have a dealine that has to be met! I told sam that deadline and he is on schedule my car is also bouncing around from 3 different shops. This is a very realistic build time and what most people don't understand is that if you want your stuff done on time you have to be involved in the build. There are only a few cars that I know of that are at GTM for long periods of time and you know why that is???? Because some other *used to be GTM installer f@cked up the cars and sam has to go back through them and then wait out the legal battles so he can finish his work! I know several guys who have already sent there cars to GTM and had them back in 2 months or less.

Thank you and enjoy history [/QUOTE


My car was at GTM long before yours was and has only been worked on by GTM. Same build as yours, built, stroked, tt, fuel system w/ twin pumps, ect...It has been there since November. Maybe I should have set a dead line that had to be met then I would have my car back. There are always issues with any major build so you should consider yourself lucky to have the build going as smooth as it is.

Wow and other my350z guys... I mean no disrespect. I am tired of the b.s. That comes from that forum... Yes my posts are cocky because I believe we will make the numbers to do the job. Getting my build done this quickly is because all te parts were in place before te build was to start. My car is not on any fast track!!! I ordered my parts last yearand didn't start the build till April this year. Sam had a built motor already completed for me and if that wasn't the case I woul be like any other build yr+ time frame for the build. So get off my back about the time frame shiv. Honestly you don't see me coming into everyone else's build threads and bitching about my build...

To everyone asking about the rear wing... APR is making us a custom GTC-500 for the car. I am hoping to have a few stand height choices that I can switch around.

I'm crossing my fingers GTM can get the VR38 plenum to fit. Chris@FsP did a quick test and found that the TB location interferes with the oil cap. On the VR38 engine, it appears the oil cap location is extended from the valve cover.

So... VR38 valve cover or fab an oil filler tube?

I agree with that but if I was trying to break 200mph in the texas mile, I dont think I would need to be singling along to 2Pac's still ballin.
