Default Function:Tuned - JB's Drift Z

JB brought us his car, like anyone else, looking to up his power numbers. Because being N/A he did not feel like it was the race/drift Z he was dreaming of. So off we go and start on JB’s new and improved Z!!!!!!!!!

Build List:

- Greddy TT Kit
- APS 3inch Exhaust
- AAM 3inch Downpipes with open Dumps
- HKS BOV
- Greddy Oil Pan
- UTEC Tuned by “ ToFu-Sam”
- Function:Tuned stage .5 Fuel Return System
- DW 600cc Injectors
- Walboro 255 FP
- Carbonetics Twin Disc Clutch
- Carbonetics LSD
- HKS EVC 6
- Nismo 19 wheels
- Cusco Sway Bars
- Cusco Front Camber Arms/ SBC Rear Camber Arms
- Wilwood Street Brake Kit
- Bilstein PSS9 Coilover Kit – The “GF Aprroved” Suspension!!

Power Numbers – 389WHP/369WTQ DD @ 9 PSI


















Where Did He GO!!!!!????

JB absolutely loves the thrill of his redone Race/Drift/”Partially Daily Driven(whenever he can manage to stay out of it)” Z now!!

I am not sure what the Brembo's are like but I know that from 155mph I get back down to 65mph quick without any mushy feeling or fishtailing. I love the Wilwood. Custom Painted by OnAPimePBS

Vidoes of the car at the track to be coming soon.
Thanks to Dave @ Function:Tuned for the endless days of my questions and constantly scoping out what parts would be the best to fit my style of driving and what I wanted to do with the car. Half show, full go. This is only part one on the stock block. My goal in the later part of the year is to disprove having to totally build up your block to achieve over 500whp on a DD dyno.

Roger that! I actually have to get the car tagged again, running into issues with inspection that I just haven't had time to worry about lately. I'm hoping to run it through inspection this week or next and see if it'll pass

After that, I need to get in touch with Dave again to look at some minor things on the car - so I'll be out that way eventually.

Couldn't find my Dyno Sheet for this so I figured I would just upload a video of it.
