LS1 350z Drift Build 'Nuff Said'

[Om1kron]

I'll wait until after the car is running with the chasebays stuff before I add any negative comments about that purchase, otherwise shit looks solid dude.

[tricky_ab]

Yes! This is the type of update

I'm talking about! Interesting Beer? Check...

A boat load of awesome parts?!?!

You'd better believe it!

You're making great progress...

[jdm2191]

Neat stuff!

& Speedwire made that Switchboard especially for your car?

[scottie]

DAAAAAAYUM!! Holding out on us?! Awesome update! Interested to see how the stack will look. The harness looks awesome. I've never heard of speedwire before but the panel looks sweet. The contour switches are a nice touch.

This looks sick, can't wait to see the end result!

I dont want to thread jack, but I know you were interested in the Aerocatch 3 latches. I will complete the install tonight but here is a couple of pics of it on my front bumper. You can get an idea of what it may look like. I had both the flush & plus flush in my possession. I will warn you that if you want to use the flush type for a cleaner look, the surfaces must be absolutely FLAT. I tried the flush first and you could easily see the slight curve which didnt allow the flush to sit as it should. Hope this helps you! Glad you went white with gold cage. Looks killer.

Thanks bro, yeah I wondering How I am going to do the Stack. I could do with out the cluster and just have the Stack there. Or have Stew do something to my Cluster to fit the stack when its at his place. We will see.

and love the Speedwire stuff top quality too.

[Royal_T]

So guys here I'm back again with a update, sorry so long since the last one but a lot of things have been going on over here so the build has taken on a slow state of movement. But finally getting around to getting things ready so I can finally hear this thing.



With saying all that lets kick this thing off with the beer for the week which is Magic hat "Elder Betty" this beer is a Weiss Ale type of beer a Hefeweizen yest, which is my fav and by far a good beer for the summer and BBQs.



So with this update I have addressed a couple of things. First was the cam, which I stated on my last update that I have purchased a torquer V3 cam which will better suit my needs as the MS4 was to aggressive. Next was the purchase of new ported and milled heads, which was a impulse buy, so what you see in this pic is me switching over all my springs and valves to the new heads.. And yet again some good beer in the pic which is a Kona Longboard beer so good.



Next I addressed the FAST 102 intake cause I hatted the grey, so painted it black.



Installed the FAST 102 TB and my Lokar Throttle cable bracket and also the sensors. I think it looks really good black



I also repainted my Water Pump to pull all the black components together.



also here is a little teaser of what my fittings will look like.. Black & titanium finish AN fittings FTW!!!



So took some time off from the build to help out my good buddy Stewart Leask during LSB and Rd2 of Lone Star Drift series. Which he killed it in and got 1st..



Also had some epic tandems with Matt Powers... too much fun.



Now back to the build.. So my water pump holes were a bit stripped so I took on the task of re-tapping them with Helicoil which will save me later on done the line.. It was a easy fix for all 6 wholes and came out good.



Next I picked up two sets of KRC Water Bypass fittings, So I can run these to my Tank.



Going to bridge the front and have it sent to the Tank, but the rear will have each side going straight to the Tank, trying to prevent any over heating issues I my come a cross.



Next I installed my 42lb Lucas injectors with my FAST billet fuel rail, which is a nice upgrade from the one I had installed before.



So the rails are installed and they will be bridged and T'ed off in the rear so the passenger side will feed back into the FPR... But nice and clean up front..



Next is my starter..



Picked up this nice PRO Starter that I think will get the job done nicely.. And looks good too..



BAM installed. I do still have to replace one or two sensors just to have peace of mind since I found one that was cracked..



But everything is ready to rock,



Just have to get my V-bands welded to my headers and get them ceramic coated and they will be done.



here is a nice pic showing how the engine looked before it got turned into a black beast and with the new fuel rail. Much better and should look good in the Gold engine bay..



Next update will be focused on my suspension, As I am replacing almost everything and have to get everything put on before I can drop motor in.. So till next time enjoy a good beer...
