[SENZA PARI]

Its been a while since I've been on here... The last few weeks have been spent with family, hunting... building rifles, and holiday festivities. I haven't spent much time at all on the Z, or any other vehicle for that matter. We did finish up the intake manifold for Christine's Z, which just so happens to be on the cover of this month's Import Tuner... major props.

We coated the runners black since these photos and it makes a huge difference in the appearance. I'll post a few more photos tonight of the finished result if I have a minute.

Dat intake!!!!!

When all is said and done it will have a single small mirror on the driver's side door.

yayyyyyyy

[SENZA PARI]

i keep trying to like the vintage fender mirrors, but i cant. i try harder, and still cant. then i see someone put them on a miata or something else from the 90's, and i want to shove rusty sewer pipe into my eyeballs. also, i like to think up scenarios where the driver is yelling at his wife/friend to adjust the mirror as he sits in the driver seat and they move the mirror in every possibly incorrect angle.

really hoping you dont put any on your z.

dude, ive been following the build thread for as long as i can remember, probably over a year now.

when are you going to finish this monster?!?!

i know you cant rush perfection, but you better try!

still sub'd! <3

Believe me, I'm trying... The lack of endless funds, other builds/projects, the time required to figure certains aspects out... hell, life in general... tend to play against me:-)

Please tell me you're doing ITB's! I want to do the same on my S130. I guess I gotta stay posted.

No ITB's for this manifold... see below. And yes, do stay tuned:-)

Just signed up to say how awesome this build is looking.

Thank you! More to come on the frame shortly. Until then, a little intake manifold action. I don't believe I've posted much intake manifold work as of yet, however it is another facet of ours.

The intake manifold started out as the stock 280Z unit, or piece of junk you see posted in the photos above. We've stripped it of all casting markings on the top, and wire cleaned the underside to a like-new finish. The runners were completely ported and polished (yes, polished...more pics to come later) and the new plenum is welded. The finish work will continue tonight, and the plenum will be welded to the runner and baseplate tomorrow morning.
