Well whatever you do, use a high temperature paint. As im sure it'll get hot, better yet, just have a professional do it, so you dont have to worry about it (the paint) crapping out over time.

Z_Stig! That you posting that video on Jalopnik, for the TrackDay fail? Holy SH1T that was terrible! Besides the fact that his line was wretched and he was driving weak as hell, that stopping place was TERRIBLE!

*edit*

For those wondering wtf I mean...

To make room for the system, generally.

eastwest2300 05-06-2013 08:28 PM

Its gotta be a huge system to be moving all those components.. IMO

Nope, wasn't me. :iagree: with your comments! I can almost forgive the bad line, because everyone has to learn the track and car limits, so I'll give him some slack on that, but the red flag stopping place is unforgivable! I hope no one was hurt! Definitely a violent collision.

Could be a little bit of a weight distribution thing as well. Looking forward to his answer.

Haha, there's a Jalop user with the name, Z_Stig, and his Avatar is a 350Z in burnt orange. What are the odds?

Yeah a shitty line I can always forgive (but in that car? Really?), but that red flag error is a SERIOUS problem.

This guy!

Yes exactly.

The turbo is larger than your freaking head bro. It needs room lol. Here is the low down.

S&R made theirs fit just fine in the same location with a slightly larger turbo. But I want to make it better.

Moving everything REALLY cleans up the engine bay and de-clutters it and will give the turbo and exhaust piping and intercooler piping more breathing and cooling room. Also moving the engine coolant/power steering coolant tanks away from that will allow those components to perform under more regular temps. Unlike S&Rs kit where those two tanks sit pretty much right in the middle of everything. You'll hopefully see updates with pictures Thursday.

Honestly guys...Pat and I were both very...intimidated taking this build on but now that we have **** apart and have the time to work and sketch and design it all its really coming together and honestly I'm really relaxed while working on this.

This as well. More weight needs to go to the back as im adding quite a bit up front so it will keep a very close to stock balance and more weight in the rear for traction...cause ill be needings it :D

That's good stuff. I got the Vetura and I'm quite happy with it (other than the pants being a bit baggy).

I would like to ask everyone while in here to lets just not take things too serious or personal.

I know will all love to have fun with each other, But lets NOT push each other to the point people start to get pissed off or upset at each other.

Now what everyone wearing? :ugh2:

I've been lurking for awhile but many people may know me as I've worked on a few Z's from the forum. My names Patrick btw.

High temp paint isn't needed. Powder coating would probably be tougher (I've got lots of rock chips in mine) You've just got to make sure the fins don't get coated too thick.

I have many reason's for moving stuff.
1) Moving the battery is a nice mod, and it opens up a lot of space in the engine bay that is otherwise occupied.

2) I hate the location of the fuse box's. Like why nissan? You have to take the battery out to access most of them.

3) I really like clean engine bays. Not the overdone, "shaved everything and bondo'd" looking all fake. Just clean.

4) Other crap I'm moving for more space and avoiding heat soak and other factors. I'll leave some of the detail's out for pictures to fill you in.

You shouldn't have to ask when you just posted a picture of it, but I don't have the rose today.
