AV fuel huh? Fucking crazy.

I've heard of some local oval track cars that say they're using it for some built ass motors....But everyone i talk to says its hard on shit and not worth it vs. alternatives.

Whats it cost per gallon for you??

I live right down the street from a small airport so it's pretty easy to get and the cost is around $3.50 / gallon

The thing I like about it is that it burns alot cooler and this is good for maybe FI later down the road...

Right now I'm just worried about the issues I have and installing all the new parts so I can get back to events

I about to get some from a friend, but I appreciate the offer man!



Well I am sure the coolant problem is due to the upper neck.

Still got the hole in the hood...

Got matching rims now, fixed the water leak, replaced the thermostat.

Still need coil packs... $200 per coil pack from Nissan....

Good info is that compression is 150 across the board.

it's been done on the RB2X so doing on the VH should be the same.

Thanks for the links man!

My tie rod ends won't work with the knuckles fail...

But the guy who sold me all of the parts is trading me his for mine, so all in all a win


I'm busting ass to get the car ready for the Tandem Clinic at Mineral Wells Airport, in DFW on Feb. 12-13th

The car is on Mikespeed's trailer going to Mineral Wells for an all weekend drift event, I'll have some pics up by Tuesday.

After the event it'll be sitting at the shop for a baller status DRZ cage, and full suspension set up.

Here we are 4 months later.

Injector replaced & rewired
Vacuum nightmare removed
Catch can being installed
Engine harness being rebuilt
Motor being pulled to clean swap up and make sure everything is ok
Re-route fuel lines to prevent me dying in a fiery drift explosion

Just got word that the harness is done.

Motor should be pulled out to basically redo the swap and clean the engine bay this week or next.

Cage and knuckles a for sure possibility!

Almost there, car should be back within the next week or 2.


I can't wait until I get it out on the track, and fail miserably.
