Went ahead and bought the 340lph. Charles from CJM is sending me the stock fuel regulator delete adapter Monday. Just going to do the return system rite now since we are still waiting on the clutch disc. Down the road Ill add a surge tank to the system and maybe some bigger rails depending on the limits of the stock rails. They're considerably larger than the VQ35 series.

Box o-parts came in. Time to get this tranny in and start this thing. Also ordered a weld in roll bar kit from autopower directly. Good price!

Car started last night, BUT threw a VVEL code for the passenger side bank. It's most likely a sensor or something I messed up. JTran is going to get it figured out for me, I had to get back to work today. Charles at CJ Motorsports shipped my fuel return kit Tuesday and I'll have it tomorrow. Awesome customer service! The only other issue I have with the car is my gauge cluster went out. Not sure if it's a fuse or what. All I did was install a fuel pressure gauge and wideband in the center cubby(which both work btwhttp://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/cool/cool0003.gif). Most likely an easy fix. I cleaned and rebuilt every part of this car down to the CSC, locktite on the flywheel bolts, the inside of the transmission bell housing cleaned, subframe parts all cleaned, oil cooler and lines cleaned, sway bar mounts regreased using Moly, B&W shifter cleaned and regreased, driveshaft.....everything. Mr. Bergenholtz also advised me to silicon the rear main seal guaranteeing no leaks or blowouts considering the power level and my driving style!

Next on the list is fabrication of the turbo manifold, modify the single exit exhaust a bit, install and paint the weld in roll/harness bar kit from Autopower, finish the fuel return system and get some Nitto 305's for the rear. Mr. Bergenholtz got my F250 sponsored by Nitto for Formula Drift in Ft. Worth next month, $2200 in 37" tires fo free. Trying to get the Z wrapped up so I can ask him for sponsorship for that too http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/happy/happy0065.gif

Can't wait to drive this thing!

subscribed! incredible build!!! love the 40th!

Thanks!

I'll be back in town Thursday to install the new VVEL solenoid on the passenger side bank. JTran is thinking that is the problem and I would have to agree with him as I dropped that solenoid during re-assembly. It wasn't my best moment. Hopefully that will remedy the VVEL issue on the passenger side bank.

Autopower roll/harness bar came in as well!

The car will be done before 10-25-2013, my bday :) Been out of town, Formula Drifting it and busy as hell so I gave JTran some cash and said get-er-done. New VVEL solenoid ordered cuz I'm not a mechanic! I should have a lot more info in the upcoming days. The cool weather has arrived here in Texas so we should get some great temps on the dyno! Till next time my faithful followers http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/animated/anim_32.gif

Spent some time on the Z 2day. Got the return adapter installed. Need to run the line up to the regulator in the engine bay and Ill be done. If I decide to road race Ill do a surge tank setup for the fuel system and a dry sump setup for the oil system. Not going to risk damage to this motor!
