So I will begin the search for a "Heater Core" and OEM front upper control arms to re-install
I would like to as well. It's just going to cost a fortune. Anyone got a spare dash they want to give me?

LOL

I already saved the web site on my favorites when you posted it earlier. Thanks laze. I found a dash for $150. That's a lot better than the 700 that Nissan wants...LOL

I just figured I would ask to see if I can score one for free

Exhaust:
12.6 Exhaust System
a) Replacement of stock Catalytic Converter system is permitted.
b) Replacement of OEM exhaust system is permitted and unrestricted providing it exists aft of the rear sub-frame. NISMO Cat-back system is also permitted.
c) Stock exhaust heat shielding may be removed.

To me, this means:
-Headers untouched
-Anything goes from there provided it exists out the back

Yey! My Motordyne stuff will work (but the ART pipes are no-go for SCCA events). I don't see how the Spec-built car would be competitive for T2 or T3 anyway, given the camber requirements (unless one changed between events - bah!).

There is no way I can run the series this year, but I will try to scrape together all the parts for it over this year and next winter and shoot to do it next season.

I'm glad this series is being setup for us. Now we can have a long history of spec racing like the miata guys. That's all I hear about when I go to summit point. Now I get to talk about our very own spec series. This is going to be fun. I am going to try this series as well. I need to get my IS-F first so I can decommission my DD Z.

It looks like ill be working on my driving skills and NASA licenses this summer with my G35. I wonder if it'll be worth setting it up per specs rules just to get familiar with it all.

Rule Book Appdx. said its the 2 way model, so it has to be a Clubsport or V3.

No Vins?? Really...

I can understand no title, but no Vin numbers makes me think it's stolen and stripped.

I know 3ree5ive0ero is in Chicago and seems pretty knowledgable about Z's. Try PMing him.

I'll be there in April and can check it out for you if it's still available lol.

No Vins (I suppose this means they have been shaved off?) = No buy.

Anyone that's going to be getting rid of thier current LSD in order to get the Wavetech please PM me. I'd prefer to do a pumpkin swap if that would work.
