**UPDATE!**
After finally recieving my valve cover gasket I finally got to change my spark plugs for the first time! And here's some pics incase some of yall never seen how our cams look It was a great a experience seeing as this was Cost Free of Labor (I worked on it) and yes like some of you have mentioned working on the Z is super easy its just patience and basic knowledge is what its needed....ALSO due to unplugging my TB I had a code of P0507 meaning high RPM than normal. How I fixed that problem is by doing the pedal re-learn process for the TB (Just an FYI if you come across this problem )

LEFT Valve Cover





RIGHT Valve Cover



Finally Assembled and Start Up with Brand New Gaskets and Fresh One-Step-Colder Plugs for the build!

Hey yall, reality took over so I was at a pause on my build lol. But now I'm so undecisive what to put first??? I have the nitrous kit but all I would need would the tune OR go with a 75 shot for now until I gather ebough for tune (btw I still am not sure which to get either Standard or Tuner Uprev any suggestions??) And then there's the 4.08s....I can get a 350Z Differential carrier from and the FD and Bam Straight bolt on but I've only seen 350Z videos on youtube and NONE OF WHICH Actual 370Z Owners who've done this mod haven't made any vids of rolls, launches, DRAGGING PER SAY, etc etc....which makes me a little skeptical as to why? I favoring more towards the 4.08s seeing as I can get a feel of how things will be before I slap the nitrous with a tune all together but what if I make a mistake and should have gone with the nitrous route BLAAAAHHHHH DECISIONS!!

^Maybe slap the wet kit on and run on the stock 3.7FD as I would assume 4.08 gearing may potentially introduce traction issues once you up your jetting into 100-125-150 range. It is a foregone conclusion that you will be bored of 75 in 5 passes or less.

If it was me, start jetting @100 and get pro tuned on dyno with Uprev Tuner ver. Then tweak that base map as you move upward. My .02.

Thank you^^ ....yes I keep getting told that by a buddy of my who has a T/A and running nitrous (Of course not comparing Oranges to Apples lol) anywys initially I want to start at 100 but I'm going to start at 75 for now (only till next paycheck) so I can buy the Uprev Tuner. I can wait but I want to attend an event where its Crew vs. Crew here in the Valley at theEdinburg racetrack...so I'm pretty excited about this

I agree put a few passes down with your setup even at 75 shot then when you bump up decide what to do on the rear end. Just my humble opinion. My stock tires are not enough to get "good straight line power down" when I get these worn down more meat is definitely going in it. Keep posting results!

By more meat I mean that I'm going to go with. R888's 305/30/19 on the rear from what I've gotten out of the forum they seem to be a reaaly good sticky tire as long as the sun is out, but if you are going to have a set of wheels /tires just to drag I understand that 18's with the mt's is the way to go. I can't speak from personal experience but so far the forums haven't lead wrong

Just to clarify something.....its ONE nitrous and fuel Solenoid for the Dual Nozzles or is it TWO nitrous and Fuel Solenoids???? I thought it was one and one but apperantly my mechanic says its two and two or in my case 2 nitrous and one fuel solenoid. (I'm missing one fuel solenoid) also had to replace my Nitroys bottle since the screw where you open and close the bottle was damaged :/....

One nitrous solenoid one fuel solenoid both will be "t'd" so you have two n lines and two f lines one of each go to the fogger mounted on each intake .. couldn't just buy a new bottle valve?

What "t'd" and so that's correct then 2 nitrous and 2 fuel...1 and 1 for each intake??? If that's the case then I will need anothe fuel solenoid DAMMIT!.....And I could have but I rather fix that bottle later and have two bottles connected later down the road

No...what he meant was 1N2O noid, 1Fuel noid, going into a "T" fitting to split the lines out to each individual intake. You will however need (2) sets of jets for each side nozzle.
