Cool, I'm shootin for the July 14th race...gotta ship stuff out this week if I'm gonna make it though....wallet is gonna be hurtin real soon

 

I think these guys like talking more about their cars, rather than showing everyone what they will do at the track.

Bad_83 bring that fb out let's see how good it looks next to my fd.

 

been a while. so whats up guys. had a blast in florida. back in the mountains now. gonna go back to fla next week and drive the 7 home. maybe ill get down that way sometime soon.

 

Don't sing it, bring it, right? Come to the meets, and we'll talk about it

Mills. Glad to hear your still kicking. You should come by and visit.

 

Well guys heres a short vid of my hybrid turbo spooling

 

Hey Sam, it was a invite to the track. I usually don't do many of the meets, and I'm getting old, so I try to do my racing at the track and not on the streets. I heard u guys have some bad machines, I would like to see how my bucket holds up against them. You guys are in the mooresville area right? Well I would be more than willing to come up there to play at the track. But zmax is a 1/4 mile, so again sir..... I invite you and your buddies to join us on a Wednesday night for the drag and brag event. Oh by the way my car is slow. Hehehe!

 

Long...all i know is its fast and when u where reving it up, sitting behind you my hole car was shaking. that thing is sick

 

Thanks man, I've put a lot of work in it. BUt hey you gotta love the REW LOL
So when are you painting your car? mine is going to the paintshop soon to.

 

I wasn't talking about street racing I was asking you to come to meets. I don't do the drag racing crap. Too much money invested into just 8 seconds of glory.

 

Well took the FB to the strip today and man O man. I'm running dang near in the 7"s!!!!
The best run I had tonight was a 8.4 at 92 MPH
Here is a vid of me running a 8.6 at 92mph PS this is just 12psi

 

Nice trap speeds Josh!! Can't watch the vid yet cuz I'm at work and we have stupid 'surf control', lol. You gonna come down to zmax on the 14th and run the 1/4?

 

Nah, it's not so bad at Zmax, for $20 you get to run as many times as you want from 5-9. And at the last 'Drag and Brag' a 350z ran something like 22 times...that's less than $1 a run. I believe they weigh your car as well and of course you get time slips for each run

 

8 secs of glory....... where? In the 1/4...... or u talking the 1/8?.

It's all in fun. Come see what it will do. Or we can just post internet vids and say how fast our cars are. Lol.

 

Well Here you go Sam LOL a in car vid of my car I took just a bit ago
I will let the video do all the talking HAHA Just hit play and put it on full screen.

 

Damn it man...........

I just hope that my new intercooler shows up by the next meet, or I'm going to have to go back to the top mount

 

I'm sorry. Us turbo first gen guys take alot of pride in our rides. Especially Long and I. We have built our cars from stockers to what we have now. The porting that I do speaks for itself. Even Bryan will vouch for that

 

Okay guys. I suppose we are having the meet this coming Sunday at the BK on Williamson Rd at 1:00 pm. I am experiamenting with blow through MAF. So far everything is working fine. If this turns out the way I hope, I can run whatever turbo and manifold I want and still retain the mass air flow

 

well it was soon, all dents and painted for 400, but now i have to give my lawyer another 2500. 'don't ask'
i might start on the body work myself soon. got do something, can let being broke keep the 7 down

 

hey fellas, glad to see everyones cars are doin ok...LONG your FB is SOOOO SWEET! U and Sam got to have two of the SWEETESTs 7's ive ever seen!

On another note needed some advice, so i wanna upgrade the turbo on my FC without going BNR , i'm thinking of doing a hybrid turbo and keep the hot side of the s5 since its already ported and what not. RIGHT or WRONG? any recommendations?

 

check this website out....http://www.gpopshop.com/

 

Now this is my kind of Flag!!!

 

If I were you, I'd just find a used BNR stage 1 turbo from someone off this forum. Probably run you anywhere from 300-400 bucks (or at least that's all I would pay for one) and you'd still retain the same response as the factory turbo but gain plenty of power on the top end. Plus he clips the exhaust turbine to help with boost creep.

There's also the T04 hybrids that have significant hp gains aside from BNR. It all depends on what type of power you want to make, your budget, and how much time you have.

 

how hard would it be to build a t4 hybrid and keep the factory s5 hotside?

 

Sam's done that before, maybe he'll chime in and let ya know

 

Ask and you shall receive

Come to the meet this Sunday and you can take a look at one in person, and we can talk.

On a different note, I have made some referance to trying a blowthrough mass air flow setup on my car. Mission accomplished All I can say is "WOW", what a freakin differance. The throttle responce is better. The boost responce is better, and o' my God, the turbo sounds like a freakin jet taking off when it boost up. Some pics you say? SURE!
