Well... My Z is about to go into Auto Dynamix for some drivability. Last Oct I had the car out to Street Car Take Over at us131. I ran twice down the strip and the tune was not on point, so Nick Diehl is going to address that AND wire up paddle shifters at my request because I didn't like how the power was delivered.

If you were wondering about the time slips... They sucked(slip posted below). The second time down the track was good until I blew oil over my window. I didn't check the catch can (oops). The slip I posted was a terrible launch because 2-step, but by the 330 - 660 the engine came alive and started to absolutely rip. I was out of the gas at the 1/8th and coasted to the 1/4 (context to the slip).

What I'm saying - More updates to come.

Picture from SCT and paddle shifter stuff:

Alrighty, been about 1mo but my car has flowed into prime time with Diehl Brother's Racing and is getting the rough areas ironed out.

1. Safety first. Nut and Bolt check.
2. Hardline A2W and Power Steering for abrasion/heat resistance.
3. Cap the hole in the trunk. (based off template provided)
4. Hard mount turbos to chassis and mirror perfectly.
5. Electrical (not started)
6. Mount remote power steering reservoir.
7. Mount Nismo front bumper and hood.

Brief list, but you get the idea. Trying not to write a book here. Basically having the shop taking care of loose ends because Jeff (guy in picture) can do the work better and faster than me. Ideally I get to enjoy my car in a month or two.
