Same here bro.

I am def in, I will be at the cruise. I can bring sausages, just to add to the protein, and some buns!

I have big corn hole boards (4' x 2') they wont fit in a Z, but if someone is driving something bigger up, we can def bring them to the park

I'm still planning on being there but it's going to be close with the car. Frank is going to try to finish it this week. Just paid for (even more) parts today so we'll see how it goes.
If it isn't done, I'll figure something out car-wise. I'll still be there.

Hahaha, so I was totally on point when I said August.

dmhenderson · 07-25-2014, 06:24 PM

Yeah. It got much more complicated than we initially thought it would be but hey, we're learning as we go here. Some of what we're doing hasn't been done on this platform. Most people have the sense not to do an E85 conversion on a supercharged car (because what's the point right?)

I am not one of those people.

Light reading here:
E85 conversion(just laying the groundwork)

That's why I said August

6 years later and this is uncharted territory for the Z. Shouldn't be the case.

This is why people go LSX

Kinda cool being one of (if not the) first though.

Regardless, I'm not really a corvette guy. I love Zcars/Nissans.

Doesn't bother me. It's still cool.

Mark, I have everything ready to bring to the meet for you, are you still good with taking it all back with you?

dmhenderson · 07-25-2014, 10:23 PM

Yes

You swap the motor into your car lol. Would have been cheaper and more reliable probably :-p

dmhenderson · 07-26-2014, 08:29 AM

I don't think there has been a successful LS swap project on the 34 platform.
Also, reliability isn't the problem.
