Nowwww that is something to consider. Hmmm..I will need to give this more though for sure. I do love me the mp412c.

:tup: Totally, McLaren :yum:



Not trying to throw a wrench in your build if you've already got a plan, just saw that pic, and that idea struck me. Since you're in a position to actually move forward with it, figured I'd pitch it your way. :tup:

way better then the tri-tip... :tup:

word. Maybe Ill do a tri + the two on the sides. 5 tip exhaust!!! :eekdance:

Seriously though. That looks good.

c'mon just go ricer and do 1 massive tip :yum:

That legit looks like Khoi's first Honda :bowrofl::bowrofl:

haha wow :bowrofl:

:ohsnap1:

Update:

Havent really done much to the car. Been FREAKIN BUSY. Work/school for the both of us sucks up too much time.lol

But this weekend should see progress. Intercooler piping and maf flanges should be done. Wastegate and bov should be done, exhaust tip should be done soon as well plus some other odds and ends. Will also be purchasing my tune from Visconti in the next week or two.

Update. Car is really coming together. Exhaust is 100% done. IC piping just needs fully tigged now. Gauges are mostly setup just need mounted permanently.

And I KNOW that the zipties on my wrap will melt...They were just for the picture as we are waiting on hose clamps. I had like 5 people on facebook warn me about that...idiots.lol :facepalm:



EDIT: added panoramic of exhaust.

Looking good! I had my intercooler flipped vertically compared to yours, but that's because of my turbo location. Cheers to wanting to go fast!

Yeah that's how most of the singles seem to be. Very limited space on these cars. So how long til the snake is turbo'd? :p

Everything looks great!

interesting.... I am liking this.. I would show you mind if I could... but im far.. far away lol

Yeah, you really don't have any other options due to space.

Not anytime soon...I'm still crying from my 2 engine rebuilds. I should be happy with my heads/cam car though once it's tuned. :tiphat:

Thanks! I'm really liking how everything is coming together. Its pretty close to what we had initially planned. I would def like to see some other boosted Zs its a shame they are kinda rare. Once mine is road tested and I know its stable I should be making some road trips with it so you never know.

LOL I cant say I blame you. I would be a little hesitant myself. I just know they are even more beastly when boosted. My buddy has a 1100whp, its kinda ridiculous.lol

well, you are more then welcome to bring her up to my place man

Update:
Ecutek cable purchased from Visconti. Remote tune hopefully by next week.
Intercooler and and piping is fully welded
Most of car is finished...will post pics of entire setup when it's road tested truly finished.


Also saw a sweet van yesterday on my way to Nashville.

Take it with a grain of salt. But the welds could be a little better.

Lol the welder(of the aluminum) told me this. They don't have a liquid cooled machine, as it got hot the quality degraded. Most are fine (looking) though.

As for the MIG welds, yeah, they aren't pretty, but they have good penetration. I wish I had a TIG, but I don't have any money for that right now.

0.o

:excited:

I know right!

Should hopefully have a drivable car this week. Only issue now is that racerwholesale sent me the wrong fittings for the oil cooler. Threads don't match up :/ waiting to hear back on a replacement.

:excited: man, I so can't wait to get back an drive.. need to fix that damn PS leak first.. grrrr

I knowwwwwwwwww. Its killing me. Longest 2 months ever. Power steering leak? or does PS stand for something else? Maybe Ill waltz on over to your build thread. :bowrofl:

It lives!

yea, powersteering ugh.. lol

Proof!
One of the first starts. Base tune nothing special just enough to get it running.

very awesome!!!!!!!!!:tup:

Very nice. Those db apps suck I got one the other day and I maxed it out at 105 lol car sounds awesome though. Can't wait to see more.

Thanks. It sounds like a lumpy v8 in person. But that was open downpipe sorta. I put another Video on Facebook if you check it out.

Video after another tuning session. Big idle difference from the first one.

sounds good buddy, when do I get to see it in person??

When we can get it on the highway (;


Here's a more finished picture

Well get that damn thing on the highway. I wanna go for a ride!!! Is it still in mechanicsburg? If so I could stop by n take a look.

i think i need to take a drive out there soon lol

I KNOW DUDE! Yesterday killed me with all the rain. John still has a lot of tune. We did drive it around the block though. it pops and cracks and whistles. Sounds like an obnoxious race car...I LOVE IT. But seriously soon. Ill call/text you when its in better shape for driving. Wednesday or Friday should be big update days....I hope




hahaha good lord. that's hilarious. I would like to have a dyno day meet soon so we can all get together when I dyno my car. And everyone can get rides in one shot too haha.

just let me know i'll take a ride out for sure.

I shal wait eagerly by my phone for the call!!!! P.S. the new Q50 is at the Infiniti dealer on the pike where I got my g. The new front bumper n interior is awesome in person. They need to release the coupe ASAP!!!
