That was the OEM ground that was connected to the OEM muffler. I can't remember how we had it tied into the HKS. There really isn't anywhere to tie it into the Greddy, and I don't see the point, so we took it off.

Benen Industries. I mounted it to the factory rear bumper right where it mounts to the frame rails. Haven't had to use the rear yet but if I do, I feel confident it'll hold on the way I mounted it.

 

Got this today...

 

I love and hate this thread! Jealousy sucks! LOL

 

New rubbers came in today...

 

I took my ground wire off too, thanks for the info

 

damn, straight to the stroker kit huh?

 

Wanted to build the motor when I boosted it, so figured "why not?". Killed two birds with one stone!

 

wow....i can't believe i just NOW saw this thread, dude...ur my hero. But anyways very nice looking Z, very interested on how the advans will perform. Your build list is my dream list (come on more deployments), def can't wait to see the results of the 3.8 kit and motor treatment *subscribed*

 

Good luck on the project. BTW, what kind of numbers were you getting right before you started this project?

 

256 whp OEM on a Dynojet, 301 whp after the mild NA build on the same dyno.

 

any updates?

 

Looks good dude

 

So no more info on this build thread?

 

Updates?

 

Dude where are you going to mount your Defi's? I was mounting mine on the cage but they stick too far into the windshield.

 

One of the best threads in a while... you have a big *** bank account man. That parts list is top notch.

 

Finally a bit of good news this morning. I got an e-mail from my local shop saying they got two big boxes from GTM yesterday. At the time they hadn't opened 'em yet, so I'm hoping everything's there. Unfortunately, I'm out of town for the next few weeks with work. He's going to go ahead and continue with the build and send pictures along the way.

I'll try to keep you guys updated.

 

This should be exciting. How long is your shop gonna take to assemble everything? I know how you feel about not being there for the build. I am also out of the country most of the year and my car is going on two years on the same project. It just sucks not to be there to see it all come together and keep tabs on it. Good luck and keep us updated.

 

Can't wait for more!

 

Updates?
