damn, good luck with the run and the rally, cant wait to see the pics

 

NIce man

 

Bam you know you have the Badest 350Z in the US.

 

Thanks guys.... Hopefully everything goes well..

 

Watch there be a damn deer on the flats that day

 

200mph holy cow!

 

LOLOLOLOLOL
Wait... NOT FUNNY BRO.... lmao..

 

HAHA. Sorry Brent, it was funny.

Im just visioning some random deer running across this nothingness of the salt flats.

 

Nice! Good luck and god speed!

 

Well it looks like we have run into some major complications..... It appears the AAM Stage 2 fuel system is more then just crap, it can not support a sustained WOT on my engine... As to AAM's claims of supporting 800whp... that is just BS... I can't even run 550 * WOT for more then 12 seconds before it starts to lean out from not enough fuel from the pumps.

Even at the lowest wastgate pressure I max out the pumps after about 12 seconds of WOT... this makes it go lean and then ...... BOOM if I were to keep it up.

I honestly don't know what I am going to do right now. After all of this to discover the extremely expensive fuel system I bought is not capable of supplying the engine with enough fuel at low boost.... I am just beside myself.

As to where this leaves me for the AKA Rally and the Salt Flat run... I am not sure. I will decide Saturday after some more discussions with Sharif.

damn, sorry to hear. hopefully, you and sharif can figure somethin out

 

Not very happy with this entire situation. Ill reserve judgement until after we see what happens at the salt flats, but much named shop bashing will ensue if it doesn't perform as expected.

 

Damn it brent .. damn damn damn.... this is why I hate it when people wait til the last minute to do stuff... there are ALLWAYS problems with stuff like this.. and this is how a small problem can turn into a big problem...

G'luck man Call me if you need anything!

 

EEEERRRRRRRRRR! No comment.

Just make it up here man and drive safe. No need for the top speed run, just get up here and head out on the rally and have a friggin BLAST with us. It'll be a little breather from the stress and BS.

 

try to get the aps fuel system. imo. good luck

 

 

LOL! Good one, funniest sh*t ive heard all week!

 

+1... APS fuel sys. isn't even close to doing the job. It's not bad for burst runs at about the 700whp level, but it wouldn't do the job of sustaining a run like this.

 

Yup, if there was only more time, a bosch/cell combo would be the best, or a dual bosch/cell. Pretty sure thats going to be the only way to really every get enough to test the limits of this engine.

edit: how the hell you been Ryan? Hows the build coming? Heard about the turbo snafu, let me know if I can do anything to help out bro.
