I finally found this thread, great work Tom! I see you are welding Al now, fun stuff to work with isn't it?

I cringed when I saw that aluminum intake manifold in the first few pics and was happy to see that you swapped in a composite intake. The MSD atomic intake can handle a decent amount of pressure, according to several of the Vette guys that run them w/ blowers in my area, if you ever decide to go aftermarket again. Are you running a Ebay turbo or name brand? How's the spool/lag on it and have you driven it enough yet to know if it is properly sized to your specific combo? I have my eyes on the G30-770 or one of the Borgwarner EFR 8374, but it seems like people actually have good luck with some of the Chinese clones these days.

Can you provide some more details on the new Nisan steering setup, how the 350Z rear cradle mounts in relation to the stock setup mounting points, aside from the fuel tank removal, and what wheel arches you found that fit? I have a set of 255/40r18's that I am trying to tuck under the car, came off my 07 Legacy GT-L, and was thinking that flares would look better than just cutting away offending material and painting the edges of the steel.


Looking forwards to the end results and I hope you don't run into thermal management issues. I used Swaintech for my C7 Z51 and their white lightning coating is legit.
