Thanksgiving break has been terrible worked 10+ hours a day everyday and my homework due tmrw has not been touched.. BUT i came accross some good news. can get a procharger kit bbk and coilovers that have been used for only 2500 miles for 3 grand. Downside to all this is the bbk and coils are offbrand, nex brand 6 piston front 4 piston rear and nex brand 4 way adjustable coilovers.
Spent the entire weekend working on the evo. Installed what seems like a million gauges:
EGT > Oil Pressure > Boost > Oil Temp > Water Temp > Fuel Pressure. Lots of running wires, cut hands and knuckes, and TONS of zip ties. I had a lot of left over defi gauges from my Z that have found a good home in the evo. In addition to those gauges, we installed an autodim/homelink/temp/compass mirror. this meant another sensor in the engine bay.
Other installs over the weekend:
ETS short route inter cooler piping. Welding in a bung for an AIT (ambient intake temp) sensor, and a native mount for my synapse BOV. Thanks to my brother's welding capability and my neighbor machining me a hole for the AIT bung.
SpoolinUP COP setup (coil on plug)
JayRacing PT342 fuel pump. Like a walboro 255 on roids. This proved to be pretty challenging given the space of the access hole.
Still need to wire in a map switching switch, get my new front lip mounted, and find the one missing piece for my EGT probe.
Had to take out a bit of wiring, a cheapo boost gauge, V1 hardwire setup, and Blitz FATT (turbo timer) that was a bit time consuming, but overall, things are VERY clean now.

wow someone was busy/having fun. When the winter comes for me I'm usually fixin up the house/garage, or beginning my work out program again as it's the only time of the year I can do it. Winter is also the time of year I can finally get caught up in my gaming until summer comes along again.
I'm posting this for Lance since he is not able to get on my350z as well.
kk guys, have an idea for a meet next spring. Might be a great "spring opener".
May 21st and 22nd down in Wisconsin Dells is a meet called "automotion". I went back I think in 2007, but it was when I was in the "J" scene(had a caravan of about 7 J's, and met up with another 20 or so).
The show itself is for older cars, but the CITY gets taken over by 100's of cars from all over the midwest. Every parking lot you see is jam packed with modified cars.
As many of you know, I'll be getting married on June 4th, so this "meet" would be about 2 weeks before my wedding, so it could be called a "bachelor party", but really I'm having that up here in the cities. Mainly I just want to get some interest and people committed for one hell of a GUYS WEEKEND!!
I have already posted on the J boards which there's 2 or 3 already committed. I'm also going to give the liberty to Janik and Torry to try and get some interest from NICO, Nissan, G35, Z, 350z and other forums. We seemed to have a pretty good turnout with the Acura & Nissan crew the summer b4 I sold my g35 for the one cruise I put together.
Anyways...here's a wrapup,
WHAT: AUTOMOTION
WHERE: WISCONSIN DELLS, WI
WHEN: MAY 20th, 21st,& 22nd. Would caravan it down Friday night and come back early Sunday morning. Would split hotel rooms with however many peeps wanna stay in each room. I know we had like 5 in a single room the one year..lol!
