Update on my Build
Been a while since I've updated my build on here, so here it is:
Bought the Fully Built VQ35 Long Block Engine. Built/Blue printed by Ron Bergenholtz of Bergnholtz Racing.
Spec'ed to suport/ handle and is good up to 850-900Rwhp:
Arias Extreme Pistons .020 over
Eagle Rods
ARP Rod Bolts, Heads
ARP L19 Head Studs
Block inspected and cleaned
Block redecked
Block modified for better cooling with HR Headgaskets
Block Bored and Honed using a Torque Plate
Rotating assembly balanced
Crank magnafluxed and the journals micro-polished
New ACL Race Spec main bearings installed
New ACL Race Spec rod bearings installed
Block assembled and Blue Printed By Bergenholtz Racing
New OEM HR Head Gaskets
Heads inspected and cleaned
Heads redecked
JWT S2, Upgraded Cams
New OEM Valve stem seals installed
Valve Stem Heights set
Cold Clearance set for cams
Heads assembled
New OEM Rev-up Oil Pump
Also got a New Competition Clutch Kit Stage 5 (4 Pad) and a Vortech Bypass Valve Mondo (Polished) 12-25psi.
I had the Cosworth Plenum sandblasted and powercoated so it looks much nicer now, aswell as some of the vortech pipes. Had to custom weld the Bypass Valve onto the pipe since it was much bigger than the factory vortech valve. Also did some work on the transmission since it looked terrible. Bought some Stillen Headers and AAM test pipes, which added some power and gave the exhaust a much different tone and sounds a tad bit louder... I went with a Stage 1 AAM Fuel Return System, which i dealt straight with AAM (also with the test pipes) they were fantastic to deal with, and fast shipping. Also got a new battery, alternator, polished throttle body, NGK step spark plugs.
Finally had my Arc R32 Intercooler installed.
After everything was done I had my tuner run it on the last tune it was running on which at that time I was pushing 379rwhp and 345torque. With the new engine and current mods, I am now pushing 423rwhp and 328torque at low psi.
That's how it currently stands but I just got the Vortech V7 Ysi Supercharger so that will be the next step for my build. Install on that will be very soon.
My Z is also wrapped Pink to support Cancer Care Manitoba.

More update on my Z.
Bought AEM Infinity ECU with a plug and play harness, Fluidampr Damper, 1000cc Deatschwerks Injectors, CJM Twin Pump, and NWP Throttle body.
I should have everything I need now to install my V7 Ysi and make some more power!

Installed my Vortech V7Ysi setup. Installed the CJM Twin pump, Treadstone TR1245 Intercooler (welded to my crash bar), 1000cc Deatschwerks Injectors, NWP Throttle body, Tim Rod Brace, ATI Fluid Damper (chose not to run with the Fluid Damper as the ATI will help me get more boost and push the V7Ysi. I also added in my HKS Carbon fiber engine cover.
Got rid of my rear wiper, added a carbon wiper delete cap.
Also got my Airtekk Air Struts and my Accuair Management System installed.
Next up is my AEM Infiniti Ecu. Just waiting on my harness to get this baby Tuned! Stay tuned for some numbers.
