I'm basically done with the engine, just waiting to get the rest of my fuel stuff (FPR and pump), and instead of running those Precision injectors (one wasn't machined right or something) I'm debating on sticking with sidefeed style injectors which i could get a killer deal of deachworks 560CC injectors from a friend or to use the 450CC DSM injectors Ifound in the shed with the Project NIssan fuel rail I have already purchased (problem with this however, is I need to get FPR) i've gotta wire up the injector clips and resistor box too which won't be a problem.

Exterior needs some minor things done, no biggie; I bought ebay mirrors thinking they didn't look too bad, they don't but i can't seem to sacrifice the foldability and power option of the OEM. I still have to fix the VIS doo doo one layer Invader hood i got from a friend. Of course, getting a front bumper and proper paint on the kit; sideskirts especially. Maybe it's time for a color change? :roll:

I also changed my wheel color again, sort of plain i liked the white better but they were difficult to keep clean :(

Instead of reparing the hood, get a stock one, :). And instead of painting the sideskirts, take em off. Your car looks the best in stock form, seriously. Only body mods IMO should be kouki sides, and SE lip, and paint the fn's again... black lol.

Well, I had Kouki sides but I traded them for the Uras sides and back. And I recently scored an SE lip for FREE!! So stock is looking good right now, but doesn't everybody like to see fiberglass shatter into pieces when I attempt a dirt drop? I think so.

^ It is, i'm just gonna fill it and reinforce the skeleton, then color match it with the car; main reason i went for the hood is because of the reduction of the weight, 240 hoods are stupid heavy.

Update:

I got my car "running" but I'm gonna have to get it to Houston to get a proper ECU Q-Tune. But I'm running DSM 450CC injectors which had required me to install the resistor box; so installing my injectors once I got to Houston was out of the question. I bought an Apex'i SAFC II for cheap from one of my buddies so I can do a "temporary tune" until I have the extra cash for the proper tune. But the problem is I have no wideband.

My setup consists of :

Turbo- Greddy TD06-18G
Manifold/Intercooler- Ebay, atmospheric old school HKS BOV
Fuel- Project Nissan fuel rail, Sard FPR with marshall gauge, 450CC DSM low impedence injector, Honda CRX resistor box, Warlbro 255 fuel pump

Fuel pressure is also set-up at 34 psi
Also running BKR7E plugs gapped at .030

I also have a Z32 Maf waiting to be put on

This is the setting I have on my SAFC right now:

Lo throttle- -40% across 1000-7600 RPM
Hi throttle- -20/-21% across 1000-7600RPM

THR point- Lo 20% Hi 40%

Dec. setting- THR 2.0%
Ne1 1.5%
Ne2 2.5%

I believe i have the thing set at Hotwire 5 in 5 out 1in 1 out with the stock maf.

What are the "NE-Point" setting for?

With the settings I currently have it seems as if it is fouling out my spark plugs and it does smell an awful lot like fuel. Anyone have any settting i'd be able to try?

I took care of the tuning part already but just the other day my car started blowing a **** of white smoke out; So the last two days i've been working on it to find the culprit and I THINK i narrowed it down to the turbo, it looks cracked by the wastegate flapper internally, i'm sure this can cause massive smoke and cause my car to stall; So i'm back to NA again until i find a solution to this :(

^^^ CRAZY TALK!!! :lol: :x BOOOOO.... :shock: Aero = Major FAIL! :evil: Lines all wrong... no... the stocker aero looks so much better. That U-type, Origin Aggressive whatever style looks so bad on Zenkis... the lines are all jagged looking like some kid cut it out with construction paper... totally unrefined and blocky and WEAK... whereas the rest of the car is sleek and sexy... put that stuff on a Kouki if anything... doesn't belong on a Zenki. Kouki's got ugly angular faces like that body kit... but even then, that style kit has always looked ridiculous to me. :roll:

Stick with factory aero, you've got it right there.

Well, we did our first event for the '08 season; and it was a great success with 100 spectators and 20 drivers; pretty good numbers in drivers compared to 2007.
