Ughhhh I got as far as getting the old exhaust off and ART pipes and y pipe on. My wrist is killing me now. It hurts if I move my hand, touch it, and just sitting there. I still haven't found a comfortable position. Hopefully it feels better tomorrow so I can finish.

It's the right one too so you would think it's used to lots of work.

Travis just hit me up on any f/I stuff. You can run turbo or s/c with low boost on a stock block. We can install whatever u get and get you up to Steve for a retune. You will only need a tuner kit since you have up rev so you will just need a set of injectors

thanks for the info, that is good to know. like i said it will be prob at least 6 months out if not longer......
after doing some quick looking, i looks that the Vortech kit isnt available for the HR motors, and the only one i really see is the GTM, and when looking at the pictures of it there are injectors in it...

http://www.fuelinjectorclinic.com - they don't advertise specific for the Z - but the Z looks to be top feed - pretty common - i bet if you contact them they can tell you what they have -

New injectors are clean injectors.....thus better performance.

Corbin has sold his Z and has an STI or EVO now I think....so he must be on those.

He hasn't been on here lately.

Well I'm almost done with the exhaust install, but the passenger side rear can doesn't quite line up and it hits this shield. I think it's the fuel pump or filter or something. Anyways, I think I just need to cut off this corner. Anyone know a good way to do it? I can bring it to someone because I don't really need it on there, but I don't want to take it off for good. I guess I'll leave it off for now and get the exhaust finished up to make sure it fits fully first.

I think it's just that corner area that I outlined already.

As long as it can fit. It's fairly small, and an odd shaped piece to work with. That top cut is like 1-1.5 inches. Only thing that worries me is if it doesn't fit after cutting, but I guess I can test fit wherever I go. I'll go throw the rest of the exhaust on now to make sure first.

Doh, thanks for the info Chris. I was over on the 370 forums and noticed he was selling his BC BR coilovers. I guess I was a little to late!

I'm looking into getting a set of coilovers for the new 370. When the time comes I'll be needing some help with the installation.
