A lot of people say the NLR AMS1000 is a great boost controller. You should compare it to the HKS, see what you come up with, product descriptions are everywhere on the two.

Damn, call me Green with all the Z Envy I feel right now!
Very impressive stuff and I like your attitude, I think you are going to have one VERY fine engine at least if you are able to assemble this all correctly.
Can't wait for your fapping pleasure pics... :chuckle:

Yea much better, I havent fainted today.. (even tho the first thing I did when I got to the shop was just look at all my parts in awe) HAHA but I imagine as soon as we drop that bad boy vg in my car get everything hooked up, put the body panels back on and all that good stuff. At the first start up I am willing to bet I may pass out right then and there (hopefully there will be a nice comfy bucket seat for me to fall into :chuckle: )

Also Anton do you have a dremel and a half way decent video camera?

I have a half way s*** Dremel, its battery powered so it wont last for extensive periods of time useful for cutting small things off. As for the camera that's a negative ghost-rider, best camera I own is on my phone :tisk:

Ok I have a half a** dremel also and no video camera... Im going have to bore out the openings of one of my spare intakes lying around so the z1 throttle bodies will be effective..

I just cant decide on what tool to use to do the bore.. I want it to be extremely clean looking...

But your dremel will proabably be strong enough all we have to do is shave the side of the upper plenum to make room for the injector clip..
