Senza pari 280z build

[SENZA PARI]

GREAT BUILD! Keep up the great work. LOVE those manifolds BTW. If I wasn't obsessed w/ ITB's I'd convert using one of those.

Here is the latest plenum we've finished, machined and O-ringed to fit onto TWM ITB's. So, I guess you don't have any excuse now, do you??? ;-)
(the flange on the front of the plenum is at the request of the owner... he wants to use adapters for different IC piping options)

Welcome Back Senza!!!!

The work you do and put out, is truly amazing, your welds, the fab skills...Everything that you do is absolutely amazing.

I feel your pain about having to do everything and then some....I am currently 5yrs into my e30 Build, and its mainly driven off of cash availability, over and above time to spend with my 4yr old. I would much rather have a project run for 10 more years, than miss more than 5mins with my son.

PLease keep up the good work...it really is inspiring - more so, the Z that you busy with, I have not seen, or dreamt of....So good ahead and finish her up...at your own steam, but post away with as many pics as possible.

Thanks once again!!!

A TRUE Fan and follower.

PS - I check in on your thread every day, without fail.

This sh*t just got real on a level of awesomeness beyond anything

[boosted brit]

Wtf
Thats all I got!

Suspension is in. It rolls on its own. No more tires sitting next to the car. No more setting it down on blocks. No more guessing or wondering. It's real.
Still much to do, but the hard part is behind.

Oh, It happened.
... and she'll be on the streets.

[SENZA PARI]

holy hell it actually happened!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is that with everything stretched/widened/relocated ect?

Oh, It happened.

This is done using the stock body (with the exception of trimmed fenders and new camber plates welded in place of the strut tower tops), S13 coilovers, along with my own threaded sleeves (much shorter) and bump steer spacers.

I fired it up today for the first time since last October. 30 seconds of turning it over, and a bit of finesse with the gas and she was idling smooth.
Brake lines need to be hooked back up, and she'll be on the streets.

Jeeeeesus.
I can't wait to see more.

[SENZA PARI]

A shot of the front end, all bolted up. Suspensions needs a bit of adjusting, but it's sitting on it's own two wheels and tires. No more wooden blocks...
