Shorty i misunderstood your PM - If you are going to 6 speed you will need the complete pedal assembly from a Z/G so that you have the clutch pedal.
Short and sportbike - You can mod the stock pedal to accept the throttle cable or use a 240 SX pedal and with some elbow power get it bent to the right angle

I am using a 240sx gas pedal and Lokar cable. I should have pics of all that come next update. I was trying to us a Lokar pedal but was way to short.
Also I would love to have that Monster Clutch unit. If they need to sponsor someone for that tell them to hit me up..

Thats why i didnt use the lokar cable it looked way to short. If you are in need of a clutch i can give you my some good contact info over at Spec. Im using a 3+ and flywheel and havent had a single problem out of it.

I also have good contacts at Spec as they sponsor the Pikes Peak/Bonneville 928.

Got a few quick questions. Anyone using the speed hut tachometer? If so how accurate it is?
And also i am wanting to run a different oil pressure gauge since the z one is not accurate which caused my current predicament. Was wondering if there is a plug and play gauge out there so i can just use the oem place for the sensor and not have to find some sort of adapter

As for the oil pressure you are better off looking on the LS forums for your answer. I use an adapted Speedhut gauge and similar to my tach I love it. If you went thru the work of this swap adapting a sensor should be a non-issue IMO.

Neat fact about my car is that my current gearing is equal to putting a 2.25:1 final drive in an OEM 6-speed 350z ...

Hoosier Drag Radial 28x10.5 R15
On the sedan you will most likely need the 5.5 backspace rears. Do you want me to throw my rears on my sedan and show you how they fit?

Almost all of us run Speedhut tachs. As to accuracy I don't know why anyone would say it isn't. It is hard to tell when full sweep is only 2-3 seconds but I love my tach.

Isn't an issue. Just thought it would be easier if i didn't have to use a adapter. Less leaks etc

YES PLEASE!!!!!! yea im running Z fitment for my daily wheels and i have rocket bunny s13 fender flares ready for good body shop to try and fit but in holding out on hacking any fenders just yet. But my plan is to be able to run 325-345 rears. Its possible on a Z/G but not so much on a sedan :/

Do your street wheels stick out past the fenders? I put my Axis Reverbs on my G once and they stick out and inch front and rear.

For the track you want that wide of a tire or the street? My Hoosier rears will hold me all day and the they are marked as a 275. I have a friend that cuts 1.2xx 60fts on his Fermont and puts down 7.7xx all day with the exact tires I have.

For the street i want that wide. I want all my power to be usable i havent gone this crazy for just a quick weekend car and a crazy track care i just wanna go FAST lol. For slicks i would prob go with the 5.5 back space like you were taking about.
At 0 camber i have a huge mexi poke with the wheels sticking out a good bit.
Here is a example dont mind the old horrible fitting poly bumper i had. This is a 19x10.5 with a +22 with 255
But at -3 deg they fit perfectly and i dont even have my SPC camber kit put on. Have had it for 3 years and still sits in the box because i still rub just a hair when i have some ***** and try to give it hell around a corner but i try not to bite off more than i can chew with that kind of camber.
