Hey, hows the engine ?
We havent got any new since it died while being on the track

travisjb · 03-04-2014, 07:25 PM

Running. CIN thinks it was a mfgr defect in the battery causing havoc with electrical system. PC680.

Wiring harnesses also reconstructed and re-routed so no longer at risk of contacting tires.

I can tell you first hand how the battery plays hell with the cars electrical system. Same battery too. But it's got to be fully charged and ready. I keep a spare with me.

Just wanted to post up and say I'm at page 30 of your blog. This is great stuff, your blog just saved me a huge head ache from accidentally buying a wrong part for the 370. Happy to follow this. Currently putting pennies in the bank to do a full suspension build.

to many pages...what are you using your rear side vents for? ill continue to look.

travisjb · 03-29-2014, 09:15 AM

^ currently they feed tubes from each side through a chamber with air-oil heat exchange unit for rear diff cooling, then exit out the rear license plate area... at some point, i may split the air and feed some down to rear brakes. have also contemplated using some of the air for driver cooling

Where did u get your side vents??
Im thinkin of doing the same with my bumper but for CAI filters that r located pretty much where your vents are......

O ok. My coolers under the car with a solid ramp up kinda thing that catches any air down there and sends it through the cooler. So I guess ill just do rear brakes then. Thanks.

custom fab aluminum

recommend you look at naca ducts, much more efficient

and thanks!

Time for this thread to come full circle.

Not putting in enough track days anymore and I think someone else may get more use out of the car... Serious thinking about selling the Z... where's market value? I want to be fair and get this done within a month or two. Thoughts?

I've kind of been thinking the same, but for different reasons. So many nice affordable supercars like C7 and 911, but can't justify buying any of them if I'm not going to track them and have a dedicated track car.
