Pulled along side a very nice looking 300ZX the other night on Mona Vale Rd - at a set of lights.

I looked in, his G/F in the passenger seat just smiled. I raised my eyebrows....

He moved forward a little....

I moved forward a little.....

I gave my car a bit of a rev....

He knew it was on !

I looked down at his car - HKS sticker, Sard, APEXi and other stickers lined his front door

I knew he wanted to race.

I was ready.

Then he revved his car.

SHIT - I'm not racing that - It sounded MEAN !!

I chickened out !

He took off

I flashed my lights at him (nice car mate) as he took off in front of me -

I went home and sulked.

I need to do some more stuff to my car !!!!!

My uncles stock 308 automatic VB commodore with broken exhaust manifold sounds mean, but dosent mean its fast :D

300ZX are much the same, put a decent exhaust on it and they sound fairly tough... and it never means that the driver is assured to put all the power down.. so go for it next time :)

I haven't done this myself - But I hear ... short of taking the engine out, you have to dismantle the front suspension and get at it from underneath....

They really jam the motor into those things - I saw one the other day - You had to take one of the BOVs of to change a damn fuse in the fuse box !!

Nah - too labour intensive for me.... They are still horny as tho !!!

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
