I've been driving the car so I haven't cleaned it up yet but I thought I would post up some pics of the engine bay. I hope to have some videos of it soon.

Re: (motoman399)
The carpet was really nice quality. I bought the upgraded carpet by the way. You do have to cut your own holes. I don't know of any other than the OEM carpet that you can get with the holes already in it. It fit pretty good except the guy that was helping me kinda screwed up the drivers side. You can't tell once its in the car but I may end up ordering another piece and replacing this one. Overall I was really happy with it.motoman399 wrote:wow that thing is SUPER CLEAN. i really love it.

Re: (Hoffman5982)
Yeah those are the NISMO horns for the 350Z. I needed some horns since mine were missing apparently from the previous front end collision. These were available to me so I used them.Hoffman5982 wrote:lol and I thought it couldnt get any better.amazing car man.

Re: (Kalypso)
Here's a little update. I picked up some knock-off Mustang wheels and some used 295/35/18 drag radials. Slapped them on the 240 and it fits!!

That's a BRM stainless exhaust. It's 3 inch with dual 2.5 inch tips. We built the Y-pipe out of stainless and modified the center section to make it all work.

Re: LS1 S14 taking it to the next level (blakexcore)
Thanks guys. I have a few more things going on with the car. I should have some more photos this week. I'm relocating the air filter to the side for cooler air and installing a strut tower bar and trying to get a hood strut kit installed. Oh and my A/C stuff should finally be in so maybe I can finally ride around in air conditioning.

Re: LS1 S14 taking it to the next level (k4jorge)
Added strut tower bar and moved the filter away from the radiator. I still need to build the cold air box to keep the engine heat away from the filter but it lowered my intake temps by quite a bit just moving it where it is.

Why did you change all that from the stock engine?C3Sierra_S2000 wrote:

What mods did you need to do to get the engine up to 500+ hp from stock? Mostly timing?
