after months of building a motor, getting all my suspension stuff put on, i finally got her back running. i got rid of all the emissions crap on the intake manifold and tig welded the EGR and PCV holes closed. this started one problem that wouldn't go away. everything was fine except one huge vacum leak, that we couldn't track down. i even put a machinst straight edge on the manifold. i really didn't mean to get rid of the PCV until after it was done, but i just tapped into the brake booster line which i thought would be fine. now after having it back on the road for a couple weeks, i almost have the motor broken in and it has been so nice just to go cruising around. i'm gonna put the 300zx brakes and 5-lug conversion that i got from http://www.ninfiniti.com/models.asp Nissan Only Wreckers N.O.W. the guys there are awesome and helped me get the parts quick. i can't wait until i have this thing all turbo'd and ready to go. i really miss driving a fast car! thought i'd drop a line and say what up.
