Some stuff came today.



Adjustable fuel pressure regulator



and some powder. Which I wasted no time coating some random brackets, and the camber plate bolts/washers.

I know...SUPER exciting

Touch up respray of the engin***.



Removed the Wilwood bottom fitting adapters. Installed the adapters out of the Nabco (1972-1973) 240z master cylinder. Now I can hook into the existing lines. That's good, because I'm pretty tired of making inverted flares at this point. Haha.



Nissan fittings. Accept: M10x1.00





There's lots more going on, I'll keep you posted.


More parts are in the mail.

Zip tie or die!

or is it...

Zip tie AND die....

Not sure. :)





Wilwood master cylinder was bench bled and installed. Brake lines just need to be hooked up.

The holes had to be enlarged to fit the booster.






Camber plate bolts all powdercoated..and stuff.




Lots of stuff is still going on in the background....Like EDIS planning, brake stuff, fuel stuff, Sparco seats....etc..

I do not have any discounts anymore. I'm trying to think of the things I need as of now, and it isn't very much. Mainly fuel stuff, AN fittings, etc...

I will keep you posted if I DO think of something worthwhile. Thanks!




Not much.

Trying to get a little bit done each night after work.

More powdercoating, and cleaning the water pump cover. No more paint.

I'm also struggling to find a blue that closely matches the GM blue of my engine. So I am reviewing different blues to see if anything would work.





And finally...A sneak peak at what will become the master plug used for making replacement (carbon fiber) center consoles. It's a side project I started a couple days ago at work. So carbon consoles baby!



It'll look something like this when finished. (hood plug for a jet ski cowl.)




Perpetually waiting on stuff in the mail.

More to come.
