I'm finally having the downpipes "mass" produced at a local factory, so I should have enough completed downpipes ready for everyone at the end of this week, including my car! After that, it's just intercooler piping and it's ready for tuning. I also had another crazy idea and proceeded with it, here's a teaser!

I've been super busy so I apologize for the lack of updates.
It took a while but shes finally done! I still have to finish the diff (I installed the wrong stub axles) and also redo the exhaust as the fabricator made it hang too low. So far everything it good, with just oil cooling issues on the track. I need to figure out a way to have good flow to all the coolers For anybody else who's doing the OS Giken LSD on a VLSD car, you can either use 2 left side stub axles, or you can use the open differential (base) stub axles but you have to machine the snap ring holes to be deeper. Hope this helps someone.

350Z subframe! It's kinda involved but it shaves approx 30 lbs. Along with a rear relocated battery, it should be a worthwhile mod for track/autox people.

As to be expected, my 2nd day driving the car and this happens!
Never had this happen before and I wasn't even beating on the car that much. Shifted from 2nd to 3rd and boom.. Defective?

You broke the diff cover where the rear stud is mounted. All the ones I heard about. They all was beating on the car.

Nismo diff covers have been broken also. The solution is the Bellworks diff brace. If you have a Fast Intentions exhaust you will need to modify the brace. Rusty has a write up on what to do with pictures. A little bit of wheel hop will kill'em.

I apologize for the lack of updates, I have been building a few cars using these kits so my car has been on pause for the past few months. I'm hoping to get a new intercooler from CJM next month and see what she will do on the dyno As for everyone looking for updates on these kits, check out my website! I have a blog section there where I'll be posting all the projects that I am currently working on.

It's been uneventful lately as I've been working on other projects, but finally finished the tablet on my Nismo!
Also, picked this nice car up a week ago :P
