What? me? Don't shoot the messenger. I wanted the long runway. Aluminum undertray sounds nice - maybe someone should talk to GTspec about making a frame where we could attach panels - like their undercar brace with bolt holes.

Also you might want to talk to Tony (Motordyne Engineering) about his exhaust. He's got a straight through design that is very compact. The interchangeable components might also allow you to move things around as needed without custom fabrication.

Plans are to get it done before ZdayZ....Then after ZdayZ...I will leave the car at FP to get the muffler thing done...by then the undertray thing should be worked out now that it looks like more people are getting involved

My point in bringing up the long nose Z was not about staight line speed. Nissan built the car for one of there race teams. I didn't have 1/4 mile in mind, what you are doig is nothing like that. It may just pay to look it up just for ***** and giggles. There may be some helpful infomation to improve your set up.

I think you misunderstood me......I know you were not talking about drag racing....anyway I am not sure if you know I have a G....but yes...I agree for the Z that front would help alot with high speeds.

so why stop with a gt35, why not a pair gt40 or gt42? or even a big single which is way more efficient at the kind of use you are looking at. just curious as how you arrived at stopping at the 35 .

previously the dual gt35 setups had to have the AC and PS removed as they were high and to the front. Your will be in the normal TT position and keep all the accessories?

Correct, our kit retains the turbos in the same location as our other stages. No need to re-route any lines/accessories, or install an oil scavenging system.

Hey Mike, Oh man we all warned you about going public with this build. What are you going to do when FOX news finds out about this excessive use of government bail out funds ? How are we going to explain the use of corporate jets, especially the G4, to shuttle parts from GTM to Forged without congress finding out ? I mean really, the senate is even working late tonight and now this breaks.

Sharif, you have a real political mess once this hits wall street and the networks start getting behind it. Oh well, at least XKR didn't spend all the tax payers money in Vegas, like a banker...
