My Z34 Build

snowsurfdirtx

So.. here is the build for my 2011 Solid Red 6MT T/S/N 370z. I absolutely love this car, and that's the reason I decided to heavily modify it instead of buying a Corvette, or any other high horsepower beast. I go to all the shows/meets/hangouts I can, I love the car world and plan on sticking with it. At this time I have no desire to get rid of the Z, but times change. I never thought I'd sell my heavily modded Wrangler, and that changed. Here we go.. any questions/comments/critiques please let me know! I'll constantly be updating this with pictures and status updates, as well as plans, thoughts and information pertaining to this car.. for my own record and for others to have a place to go if they want info on the whole project. -Steven

Update 4/5/2014: finally got the car on the dyno today, but we were losing fuel at the top end. gotta check a couple things, talked to Sam@GTM and he recommended putting a fuel pressure gauge in and seeing what was happening, he said it might be a bad pump. Gonna pull the fuel bowl out again and check things, kinks, etc. Only did a couple pulls but couldn't get it to stop leaning out at the end.. the strainer at the bottom of the fuel pump on the pickup was touching the bowl so i think that's the issue. Timing wasn't touched from the stock GTM ROM file, so there's still a bit of power to gain.. car ran good though other than that horrible lean condition at the end first run, which the video is of, the car made 459whp on the original gtm canned tune. car for now is rev limited to keep it out of the lean spot at the end..
