True... I am looking at three properties right now. All with three car garages and all with rear detached double garage/workshops... plus parking for min 6 vehicles on the pad in front. I'm sick of being cramped.... time to move on up like the Jeffersons!

I was forced into a situation where I had the option to either rent or buy and decided to buy. It ended up being for a duplex and the front garage is maybe 8x10 if I am lucky. The GF can fit the Subaru Impreza in there pretty easily, but not much room to open the doors and get out. So I know I have some room in the front to build a bench, but thinking I wont be able to open the Z's doors all the way :rofl2:

It was a good buy in a great neighborhood, prices are only going to go up, but totally looking for somewhere just outside the city with a shop as well. If I sell for a good enough profit, will probably build my own

Got around to putting a few light coats of nightshade on my tails and 3rd brake light.

I put 2 coats of VHT and 5 coats of clear then wetsanded and polished. I didnt want to go to dark, but just enough to pull the bright red look out of my tails. Overall I am happy with how they turned out.

I also tapped off the reverse lights but removed the tape before the clear coating. I did not presand the lights.

I was kinda on the fence between what to do with the 3rd brake light. The Mrs. said I should leave it because as it stands now it is obnoxiously bright at night and shes right. I kinda like that about it. I think because I went lighter on the tails it does not look out of place as it is.

What a sexy build, props! This is the turbo kit I eventually want.

Courtesy of CJM, dont have as many pictures as I like but the kit does work flawlessly.

Fuel pressure is no longer an issue. Sits at ~56 psi and then ~53 under boost. Might hook up the boost line to the regulator, havent decided yet. I think once I dial in the fuel (it currently bottoms out the AFR gauge at 10:1) I wont see any pressure drop at all. No point to increase the pressure if I dont have to.

Which version did you go with Mitch?

I went with the S1 kit. Charles was saying that since we have the BP kit the S2 hard lines can be fun to work with. To be honest even pegging out my AFR gauge at 10:1 under boost it has 0 issues holding fuel pressure. So once I dial back the fuel and get it around 11-11.5:1 under boost I am going to see even less of a drop as I do now.

If you do get the kit and want some pointers I learned a couple things along the way, lol. Charles was a big help and was texting me pictures all weekend and answering my questions. Couldnt be happier.

Got muh car detailed! He spent a few hours on her. Best part about it is that nanocoating. I can literally just rinse the car and it comes out spotless. He made a thread about the process.

Thanks guys!

Just finished a trip to the mountains with a local car club out here. I picked a few of my favorites of the car that were taken by a guy on our cruise.
