lol yea but if you read through that you would understand that i run that machine and i didn't have anything to do for the day. also i made it out of scrap material so time was the only thing invested...so it cost me a total of $0.00

also i got paid for the day of work...

thanks man, im really not to far off. hoping to get brake lines done this weekend then its time to drop it in and run stuff.

QUESTION:

does anyone know if B is a proportioning valve or just a straight through union i know A is just a T but i need to know about B. Please dont BS me or Think you know im looking for someone that truly knows what it is. pics of this part could be very useful as well (looking through it)

lol yea thats how the car came, i think that puts alot of people off about this build but once they look deeper they see the truth :P

Driftwire · 04-01-2013, 12:29 PM

I would like to say that I remember reading somewhere That (B) is just the connecting joint to the rear lines. Let me see if I can find it.

Based on what Ive been reading on various forums, some people suggest running a proportioning valve on the rear line to reduce pressure as some prefer not to and have max pressure. I would suppose your setup would all come down to your driving style.

That being said. I cannot confirm if that is a factory valve or a connecting joint.

AZSCsideways · 04-01-2013, 01:54 PM

i might just run a wilwood proportioning valve in cabin so i can adjust the brakes on the fly

AZSCsideways · 04-01-2013, 04:11 PM

so the proportioning valve is built into the Z32 master i take it? (from what Ive been reading) if so i might just not worry about it for now and run my lines.

anyone with helpful info please chime in

florante rea · 04-01-2013, 04:40 PM

Yo man can u sell me that oil sensor blockoff plate? Lol

Drift_FX · 04-01-2013, 04:47 PM

AZSCsideways · 04-08-2013, 10:16 AM

throttle body plugs done

got a oil cooler off CL for 25$ came with lines and a few other bits i probably will not use

got sick of seeing my welds rust so i just rattle caned the engine bay for now, ill paint it when i do the whole car later down the road but this works for now

got the brake booster and master in

start of my Saturday

one of the lines flared

fronts ran

my sunday
front calipers

rears

full of fluid and bled

also messed around with my IC and radiator to see how things would fit, found the lower mount was real easy just need to make an upper

AZSCsideways · 05-29-2013, 03:35 PM

well i thought i would do a small update on whats going on so people dont think this project has ended. as of right now i am really tied up with buying my first house, right now im waiting to hear back from the bank about an offer i put in on a house. i have started packing alot of my car things up for the move so im limited on things to work with.

dumped the motor in the car so i can move it as one

cut the lower water neck down

messed around with power wires for my fuel pump

put the fenders on and put the front bumper and headlights in place just to get an idea

thanks man!

small update, not much done to the car this weekend but did some cool stuff in the shop

made a tip for my drop ind. that allows me to touch the top of the piston for when i degree my cams in, testing it out / checking the 0 (TDC mark, just wanted to see how close it was and its dead nuts)

everything is dead on now

started running my return fuel line, just need to get a 90 and the line to the reg will be done. should be getting that 90 shortly (thanks Albert!)

new addition to the shop! makes moving the car by myself so easy now

ALL DAT ROOM!!!!

still can squeeze a bunch of bins on this side. there is a r154 sitting longways on that side so i still have room i can move over.
