3 walbro 485s not flow enuf :bowrofl: first world problems 🙃

I'm sure u will get it straightened out. Good luck to ya.

Well it comes down to prototyping something for zdayz or just fixing and running what I have for zdayz... The triple pump won't be ready for another several weeks if not another month... So after talking with several people today I think I'm set on not spending a crap ton of money just to re do it after zdayz...

So Zdayz we will be running a stock GTR plenum and my old fuel pump most likely. Should be good for atleast 1000whp pump again... Maybe more. But that's our goal for zdayz is just 1000whp pump super reliable fun car and then start smashing barriers right after zdayz with the GREDDY intake manifold and triple pump setup. All in all its going to be a fun zdayz!

Also keep in mind they have only had the car for like 2 weeks and already ripped everything out and put all the new stuff back in! That's pretty darn quick!

Masterbeatty 05-02-2016 09:04 PM

Congrats dude!.

You should start a lottery on whoever guesses within 5% of the final dyno run gets your old kit!

That is real quick. They have done you right. That might make me lean to them to do an install later of some sort. :)

Maybe this could be part of your solution. I know CJ Motorsports doesn't make them anymore. Don't know why

No he needs something much larger than this unit as I even had to upgrade this unit for myslef with 485 pump. He needs a custom solution.

bullitt5897 05-03-2016 10:49 AM

I am working with Fore Innovations on a Triple hanger for the 370z but its several weeks out at best.

Spooler 05-09-2016 08:57 PM

Did you get her up and running yet?

bullitt5897 05-10-2016 11:47 AM

we are finishing the install today and tomorrow for upgrading the fuel system minus the fuel pump assembly. once that is done we are ready to start the car again.

Spooler 05-10-2016 06:45 PM

Good deal. Hope everything goes well and you make it to Zdayz with no issues.

bullitt5897 05-11-2016 10:57 AM

It's 12:45 :drama:



:eekdance:

bullitt5897 05-11-2016 12:29 PM

lol I am still awaiting word. I received pictures of the final parts being assembled on the car...

bullitt5897 05-12-2016 09:03 AM

So I talked with the shop last night and they did not have the right size coupler for my new throttle bodies. They rush ordered a unit to have it here by this morning. So we should be up and running today.

zguynate 05-12-2016 09:28 AM

You get the EPS throttle bodies?

bullitt5897 05-12-2016 09:37 AM

Yep I have the EPS throttle bodies and they look GOOD!

On a side note looks like I will be going to Zdayz with blue seats with my red interior *Facepalm... Turns out every one in the entire united states is sold out of Hi grade deep black automotive suede.... and real Alcantara is going to take over a week to get here...

zguynate 05-12-2016 09:39 AM

I'll def be excited to see your car in person this year. Lots of cool stuff. I won't know who you are but I'll probably meet you at ZDayZ lol.

bullitt5897 05-12-2016 10:54 AM

well the fabric tides may have turned in my favor... Shout out to my boy Ravi @ Umbrella Auto Designs and Mike from Dark Dog Customs! You guys are going to love the new seat design!!!

Ghostvette 05-12-2016 03:43 PM

jk :tiphat:

bullitt5897 05-12-2016 05:17 PM

Pics are coming.

Quick update: everything looks good in the engine bay! They are going through the pre checklist before starting her up. As soon as she is back up and running I will post up. *fingers crossed*

370ZBlk 05-13-2016 10:03 AM

Very cool build/progress. I'm in GA as well - hope to run into you at one of the monthly meets.

bullitt5897 05-14-2016 10:56 PM

UPDATE:

The car is sitting on the dyno and is waiting for the tune. New wing, diffuser and undertray are already at the body shop waiting on the car. Going to get an alignment Tuesday morning then wrapping up body work.

Spooler 05-14-2016 11:21 PM

WOW Bullitt, you are cutting it close.

bullitt5897 05-16-2016 08:38 AM

Going to the shop today to see the car dyno. Also placing my vinyl order today for Wednesday morning pickup. Then tomorrow at the body shop.

Cw370TT 05-16-2016 07:36 PM

Results O.O..

Better yet.. VID.!

Kingbaby 05-17-2016 01:29 AM

...I have to say, I have the most utmost respect and admiration for you keeping this car and pushing the limits further than before!

bullitt5897 05-27-2016 02:24 PM

UPDATE:

So ZdayZ was an absolute blast!!!

The car had its maiden voyage on the new Fast Intentions Twin Turbo Kit! Man is this car a beast!!! The car is only on a base tune as I will be pulling the motor and be going a different direction with it! Don't get me wrong I LOVE the 4.5L but in order to be competitive in the half mile racing we have to get my TQ under control...

Numbers:
With the current Base tune we are making over 800Ft/lbs by 4000rpms!!!! The torque stays flat and picks up in the mid range topping out at 880Ft/lbs by 5750rpms! Our Whp numbers also peaked at 970whp by 7000rpms!!! All of this on a base tune with not a lot of features enabled. This was all tuned on E85 with E reading of E78. Compared to my old kit we picked up over 300ft/lbs by 4000rpms and over 200whp at the same rpm level. The RJM manifold and EPS throttle bodies really allowed us to utilize the larger turbos and gain faster spool over my old kit! We saw full boost by 4500 RPMs!!! My last kit saw that at 5500rpms! This is proof that the RJM manifold is doing leaps and bounds to help us maximize the turbos.

Driving Experience:
The Car is an absolute animal!!!! You have to be on your game when driving this car! The power comes on so quick and so hard like a Tasmanian Devil! I let Tony drive it at the Forged Performance top dawg event and needless to say his thoughts are this is too much power... He looked over at me and said and I quote "You want even more power?!?!?! Your freaking insane!". Tony learned a lot about me over ZdayZ especially when I say I drive the car hard that I really do drive the car HARD!

So what's next?
Well I will be putting my short block up for sale as a fully assembled unit. We will be taking a page out of AMS and Many of the 2000hp GTRs books and dropping down our displacement. Most likely we will go back to a 3.7L and turn up the REVs to say 9000... I am currently working with RJManufacturing on a Ultimate 370z Shortblock needless to say something that can handle extreme punishment and extreme power levels. More details will surface once we have all the details ironed out.

Now for what we all are wanting to see! Pictures!!!!

Hotrodz 05-27-2016 03:15 PM

Yo Mike, right up and great pictures! I was an absolute pleasure to meet you and have a front row seat of what the White Dragon was capable of. I can't wait tell next year when we all get to roll together again. Life begins at 140...:driving:

zguynate 05-27-2016 04:09 PM

That's awesome man. I'm glad I got to see the car in person and meet you this year. That intake was sexy as well. After seeing the RJM setup and talking with you (unknowingly lol) and Bobby, I'm really considering adding it to my project.

bullitt5897 05-27-2016 08:50 PM

Haha yeah I try to stay low key and Bobby asked me to man the booth while he went for lunch one day. I had fun talking to potential customers. You should definitely get one!

Rusty 05-27-2016 09:21 PM

What's this, Mike? You holding out on me! You didn't tell me about the new block. :shakes head: Can't wait to see what it does! :tup:
