Nice work. Properly driven stock axles go a long way apparently -- nice to see such low 60fts on them. With an auto and slicks they have less stress than a bone stock Z on street tires hopping off the line.

I'm impressed. Any plans to modify at least the suspension?

I am on the fence right now. I am considering selling the car or take one more iteration. If I go one step further it will going for 8's and will include:

1) Bigger nitrous solenoid and a 150whp shot
2) Differential spool
3) Remove underbody sound deadener
4) Light weight battery
5) Front coilovers
6) Gutted headlights
7) A couple random weight reduction items
8) Higher converter stall

Well the VQ would serve as a nice paper weight?

Lol. I can bolt a VQ to the trunk to help put more weight in the back. Would that count?

Congrats on another successful build - great results! Do you have a full dynosheet (looks like the one you posted only spans 1000 rpms)? Automatic FTW!

I do not have a more complete dyno since I was unable to start at a much lower rpm without the kickdown trying to shift... which makes a badass squiggly dyno!
