thats a really nice Z u have there. how much did the wing and front bumper cost u?

mark86t

Thanks. I bought both about 8 years ago when I first began building the car. Wing was $400 new & bumper cover, support, hood, & headlights were bought used. Not sure what I paid for them.

Nice 31 man !!! love the rims .. though those are the only ones that need to black out so now for the main q .. whats under the hood ! nice rollbar btw

mark86t

It's more like what's NOT under the hood. lol Just need some cams & springs. Got just about everything else. I imagine the next question will be how much hp do I have?? 12lbs of boost put 330rwhp & 409rwtq. I now run 20lbs of boost, put on a 3" cat back, gutted intake plenum, & plenum spacer. Going to dyno again in a couple of weeks. Hoping for low 400rwhp.

I've got the little SD card in my CD player too. I love that thing.

mark86t

Ya the SD card doesn't skip in my car like CD players do. My car is that stiff that CDs skip with normal driving. SD is king. Easier to add/delete music as well. It also works in my camera & personal MP3 player. Ipod my ***. SD rules.

For some reason black and artic white z31's appeal to me i bought a 86 between model once ( with the flares but the old tails.. and loved it .. but it was poor roll repair .. and we bought it for parts only so after some playing around it was put to rest.

Anyhow I saw your ride at MSA and loved it.. there is a full black with black rims one on hybrid too.. it looks incredible.. Sounds like you do have a nice set up under the hood
I have to say I'm pretty impressed by their road holding capabilities given the weight. do you use a hid conversion kit btw? how do you like it ?

mark86t

I too have black wheels for my Z. They are my track wheels. I don't have HID conversion........yet.

Dude you just made me more appreciate a bodystyle, that I didn't care for much. Your Z31 is **** man, off the friggin' hook! I have to say, that is pretty much the best Z31 I have ever seen in my life! Great job man, and good luck with your HP goal. It sounds like you will really achieve it. And as for your wheels. (the chrome jet fan turbine style ones) I want those for one of my 280zx's. What kind are they, those are awesome looking wheels. Also what sizes do they come in?

mark86t

Thanks. I really didn't care for the Z31 body style until I started to visualize what I was gonna do to it. Now it's pretty much done on the outside.

Those wheels are polished aluminum. Boyd Coddington Smoothies. Not sure of the sizes. Discount Tire ordered them for me about 4 years ago. I like the wheels but I'd get something else if I had to do it over again. The one thing I do like about them is that I never see them on any other car.
