Thanks gents. I think he is upset with himself maybe, for not researching before committing his project. The only thing I could think of as to why he is so upset.

Haha, sorry man I had to defend my whip! And to defend Umar, I just barely beat him out and it was his first time on a track so big ups to him for improving over the weekend. Which is what it is really about not who is faster.

Thought I'd give you guys a quick update. I just dropped off a core to Frank at Hill's Garage near Baltimore. I also just ordered a set of Wiseco extreme duty pistons and Cosworth connecting rods. Next stop - Justing Racing for the machining and honing of the core to some tight specs.

After that it's BC Stage 3 cams, sending the head to HeadGames for the full 5-point valvetrain overhaul, and back to Frank for assembly. I'm going with the APS TT Extreme kit and the Haltech platinum EMS. Dave's gonna be tuning my ride after all is installed.

Oh, should also mention I'm dropping in a Carbonetics triple-disk clutch and flywheel combo as well, and probably putting in a Quaife differential 3.91 gearset into a 350z 3.3 vLSD to extend out my gears.

Still unsure on which guages I'm running yet but I'm open to advice...

DEFI Gauges FTW! Too bad I'm poor and can't afford them and am stuck with AEM digital gauges.
