Default GT3 350Z project update for Fall '05

Well, race season has come and gone and I'm still not done with the design, engineering and fabrication of my car. But here's a link to show the progress made in conjunction with BMF Performance on the Nissan SR20 race motor:

Special thanks to Mike Kojima for his suggestions and specs on the stepped, 4-2-1 header design. Also note the Aussie-built, quad throttle body with carbon airbox from EFI Solutions on the intake side of the engine. Progress is slow, but sure. I'd like it to go faster, but am determined to EARN the money before I spend it!

Here's an earlier picture of the car for those that might have missed it:

Well done! Looks like a very clean and professional install.

Wow David, ITB's and a custom exhaust. You've done a lot since I last saw it. It's really looking good, are you bringing it out to Second Creek this weekend? I saw you registered in GT3. Can't wait to see it person again, maybe take it for a spin

Will- Sadly, no- I went ahead and entered the car, hoping to have it ready. It won't be, but I still plan to run the first National TT at SCR. I won't be able to make Saturday, but plan to see you there on Sunday.

What kind of tires did you get to run in B Stock?

ADVAN A032R, soft compound. They were on clearance at TireRack. 235/40/17 in front and 245/40/17 out back. I can't find anyone to shave them for me, so I may run them at full depth. They were affordable though, and at full depth I can still run them on the street for a while without buying new tires, so it was the best fit for my needs. Not nearly as sticky as the V710's on the competition, but maybe it will rain on Sunday
