Pretty good. doings some little things to it this weekend. I have to replace the rear subframe bushings mying are 100% done it clunks so bad when u unload the drive train. Also taking out the fuel cell for a quieter duel pumped set up. And adding the ac condenser. Then maybe head back to the dune to see what it makes when I get back from my vacation.

Oh damn are you going solid or? Ah yeah my old supra had a noisy *** pump, especially when you have no interior/ sound detening. Nice I wanna keep ac on my setup, i am using a 350z rad/ condenser. I am a little concerned about fitment, haha. Hope you make some good realiable power buddy. Have fun on your vacation.

I have solid differential bushings so I just got polymer ones for the subframe. Yea the menafuel 750 is crazy loud. If u get the ge vvti lower oil pan u can fit the engine farther back then I could so u can use the oem rad fans and ac condenser. I tell my self if I go to a auto i will switch out lower pan and move mying back as well.

Thanks I done leave for a few weeks tho.

Oh nice that's an upgrade I'll definitely have to do at some point. Oh man I bet, probably loud as hell. I have a ge vvti oil pan, my driveshaft is already prebuilt though. I'm not sure how far I can go back, still waiting on paying the rest of the engine bill. Auto? If I could afford it, I would go sequential. Problem is they are insanely expensive, but they look like so much fun.

Yea if the cd009 craps out I wouldn't go sequential because of the cost it's just not practical to pay that much for a trans

Pulled out the fuel cell and went with a duel pump hanger with duel walbro 525s pumps and replaced the old 200k rear subframe bushings. Also have room now for the remote ac condenser now that the fuel cell is gone.

I would but its already back in. But it ain't very heave maybe 45lbs max. And I had some fuel in it. Enough for the pumps to pick up.

Ac condenser mounted and liquid feed line from the compressor to the condenser made and ran. Still have to do the other line to the dryer/ receiver once I finger out where to mount it.

Came here looking for info on Z/G 2J swaps. Was not disappointed.

Awesome read! And kudos to you for tackling all of the obstacles with the build. It's turned out amazing so far.

I've been kicking the idea around of purchasing a welder and teaching myself the hard way. You've inspired me to quit coming up with excuses, and to just do it.
