Moderators: I Cant post pictures.. I dont know why...But i used a link to picture trail

 

I dont think it's you. I think since the sites been down and back up again there has been problems with pics.

 

good stuff bro. are those 370cc injectors "SVO" injectors? I've been looking for a set. Where'd ya get em? But damn... now my 280zx isn't the only one w/ HiD's! oh well... originality can't last forever.

 

i got the injectors from a friend for free 8 of them actually... already lost one haha... Anyways yea also having hids is the greatest! I can now see the world. But the only problem is that the hids are in the headlight buckets so there is a bit of glare as u can see in the picture agasint my garage. But the hella foglights make a difference also, they are focused to compensate for hids in the middle

 

Nice dude. I remember when you started. Its come a long way. You should come through sometime so we can get cracking on the front ends.

 

Really nice. Cheers to you

 

awsome work darrell.. man i really cant wait to see your car and apallos car finished.. that turbo build is lookin good...

 

Looks Great!

 

looking realy good. i will have the valev cover done soon mary has been sike lately so i is taking a while. but its all looking sweet so far

 

thanx buddha u really helped a lot witht he whole process...

AH I WANT TO WORK ON MY Z!

 

What will you be using for fuel management?

 

im upgrading to z31 and i have an safc laying around so i was just going to use that... I had the safc for my other car but i never put it in and decided to use it on my z

 

How did you do the intake?? Just cut out the extra material between the runners??

 

it's an N42 non EGR intake... came on certain 280z models...


Pic of mine for the next L28ET:

 

i did the shaving of the non esantel parts on the intake but nismopick is right the web part betten the runers were that way factory. but the rest of the shaving and polishing took alot of work but it was worth it.it looks sweet. you should see the timing cover and oil pump i did for him, thoses turnd out sweet also

 

Whad ya use to pollish? Cuz it's a purdy rough surface as you know! (Hopefully that's not a "secret of the pros")

 

Wow, learn something new everyday. I never seen one like that, just all ways thought they came with the material between the runners. Now I want one

 

lots of hours sanding to get it smoth. then lots of time with a buffer wheel and lots of pollish. but its worth it. the inside is also done on his intake and the inside of the turbo.

 

i have an extra n47 intake manifold laying around. Its exactly like the n42 without the webbing but it has egr so u can stay smog legal and have the clean look

 

It all looks so good. You are really doing a heck of a job with that car. Cant wait to see it all finished up.

 

argh.. everyone has updates here are mine.
