There seems to be an EU/return fuel system trend going on here.

If you've never driven deals gap before, power is really not as important as tires and suspension. The road is windier than anything I've ever seen before. It would be almost impossible to gauge pure power performance potential with any kind of accuracy...It sure is fun though!!!

Well before going to Sharif and CPR, boost fully built up after 3K rpms at WOT.

But now after the standered boost controller, it really does help with boost response. Like I remember it built up faster than before, though it seems with my boost controller it isn't exactly consistant (depending can be around 9.5psi-10.6psi)... So I guess some spiking, but not bad considering.

Yeah that would, infact I would def. plan on attending for sure.

Yeah over the years had friends who were able to go, and enjoyed it very much. I have never been able to, so I would def. plan for a big meet... Also from what they have told me, and considering how I like to drive... Suspension, sways, and tires would seem standered to me lol.

If not I would be in the back of the pack taking my time

Keep an eye on
http://www.zdayzevents.com

and

http://www.zdayzevents.com/zforum/

They will likely have updated information as it becomes available.

I drove it with just a fresh set of 19" tires and stock suspension except for the Eibach pro-kit springs, and I was able to push pretty hard. You'll have lots of fun regardless of what your cars configuration is, and driving aside, ZDayz is a blast.

Somewhere between started and finished, I suppose. I'm a firm believer in "let 'em work until they're done." (Until my flight down there to pick it up of course, which I have already purchased).

hehe....I wish we had more customers like you. The fuel system and injectors are already installed. The engine bay is totally buttoned up...I was amazing at how quickly and cleanly it was done. All that's left is to install the boost controller, and EU related items.

Well when I get my second form of consistant transportation (right now trying to buy this guy's 1993 Nissan 240SX), then I would be one of those customers


Also thanks kcobean for the links, will check them out after I get out of work.

I was really starting to hate the car, I even put her up on Autotrader.com... But now strong feelings again for this car and set-up... Man did Sharif and Eric really pull this out for me and hopefully Sharif will post up with the more technically stuff
Where did you get the gauge pod from? I can see one is for Boost, but what are the others?
