Default GTM 4.2

Well it finally got here last thursday. I just have to clear customs and have it deleivered to my house by UPS. Sam at GTM is a great guy. He put the new girdle kit and bottom end modifications on the block. My 850 TT BB turbo kit came off of Eagletons car. I purchased a haltec, ecu for the car. The Stillen SC ran well on my Z ( 13.09 @ 108).
I look forward to see what my car will run at the Ontario Z drag day at ST. Thomas next year. Im hoping for at least low 10's or better. To my fellow Z club menbers The big black " Z " is back .
My car is a 5 AT, the transmision will be sent to GTM in January 09.
" Sam says that it should make 650 to 675 at the wheels at 12 lbs boost."
I thought about getting a GTR from Oakville Nissan but i like the 350 z better.
I will keep you guys posted , I wish i knew how to post pictures on this site.

Default Custom charges

Well i had to clear the motor from customs and with pst, gst, and duty..$3450.00.
I was expecting that, so there were no surprises.
Since then Sam as sold me the new HKS knock amp with dual O2 sensors.
His custom 3 inch exhaust should be here in a few weeks. The turbo 400 from Jerimme Tibbs (perormance factory )should be here before christmas.
His car ran a 10.1 in the !/4 mile with 550 rwhp.
The problem now is the roll cage.
Does anybody know of a good shop that can build it.
This project is costing more than i thought and will not start for a few months.
Thats the latest updates.

Thanks

^Vertex Fabworks for roll cage

Did an amazing job on my buddy's race car, weld quality and measurements are top notch. You can find some pics at www.vladcrown.com

The only downside, I'm not sure if they still have a shop. They closed down after finishing my buddy's car. I think they only do it on the side now...
