Yea that's was actually fun to drive. I didn't get on it at all but definitely a lot of power for the street. I was 1/4-1/2 throttle at 70mph in 4th gear and the tires spun. Wasn't expecting it lol. Just trying to pass a truck

Only when I adjust my camber to hovercraft.

Also looks like I will be building a motor sooner than expected. Nothing happened to my stock block yet, things have just lined up for me to start arranging all the parts I need. Just placed an order for the next clutch. Im switch to the Spec SS twin disk.

And for the most part I finished my trunk stuff. Its not the most attractive, but between all of the wires involved in the air system and my stereo it actually turned out decent. And Im left with a whole lot more trunk space than I had before.

I think deep down we all enjoy a nice big brown package from time to time. The bigger the better really...

I scored some clearance snow shovels and hand sanitizer while I was at staples... It was a good trip.

I even through in an extra bonus for you. I was going to stick a dirty movie in the box but my wife said that would be inappropriate.

Congrats on the good news regarding the motor build. Will you be building a different block so you can simply switch when it is finished? Or reusing the short block in your car?

Also, finalized some things up with the family and R/T Tuning. Tune will happen at the end of May to get in on the UpRev discount. So Vortech install will commence after my last final until then May 16th-~May 30th.

I will be building the long block I have sitting here from the G35 part out. Trying to cover all of my bases so once the motor is built I should have everything to swap it right over. Just picked out my new intercooler as well

My lovely brown package came in today. Good thing the manifold is such a solid piece because it looks like UPS tried to test its durability.

Also have to say the Olaf tape is the strongest duct tape Ive ever seen. Had a hard time cutting it with my knife

I have no idea how they manage to hit it that hard. Either way the stud still looks straight so Im not too worried about it.

Remind me to pick up some of that Olaf tape next time I'm out. May come in handy if I ever get a hole in a tire

Unfortunately I dont think the olaf tape is available anymore... Got that on clearance for $1 at tractor supply.

I used it to wrap holiday gifts because im a dick like that. One year I quadruple wrapped a gift for my dad.. Took him like 15 minutes to gain access.
