Default Pics of infamous South Florida RB26 350z

Here are some more pics of an RB26 swap. This is Rouz's 350z from South Florida. The swap was done by Premiere Autotechniks in Pembroke Pines, Florida. The car has a Greddy T88 on stock block with a DTA Standalone. All comfort controls except A/C and PS are out of the car. All parts needed for swap were custom fabricated. I don't know what other details you guys wanna know

Please take the smack talking somewhere else guys. Just wanted to show you guys and keep you posted. These pics were posted with the owner's concent.

Looks good I saw some pics of it awhile back when it had a black valve cover.

Zexy thanks for the great pics...any pics always help.

BTW are you getting a shop down their to do the installation? Seems right now I'm the only one wanted to do all the fabbing myself.

Heard the owner is an idiot, no offense. Car looks ok but I would rather build my motor and have everything in good order then go to the trouble of doing that.

Finally a pic of the motor that should have been in the Z. One of the Shops that are sponsors on this board should look into making up a full swap kit for a reasonable price so more people can do this.

Zexy, further data. Without the stock VQ ECU you have no creature comfort. Its going to have to stay there somehow. As for this car it looks very sick but he should ditch that turbo. Its WAY to big for a stock block RB. Its most likely surging itself to death across most of the power band. When you do this and pick your single turbo, pick one that a LOT smaller for the stock motor.
