Hello, and thank you for joining us in the latest installment of "Mattback Takes Over the World"

Ever develop a water leak due to the pain in the *** cracked bypass hose directly behind the timing belt?

hahaa. not anymore my friends.

in putting my motor into an S chassis, i've done a few little changes here and there.

No major pictures yet, simply because i'm not giving them away right now, but here's footnotes.

no more water neck radiator cap crappy thingno more crappy bypass hosetwinturbo z style radiator hose outlets

stay tuned guys for one of the first twinturbo sohc vgs as well ;-)

I hope this is for real. I've heard too many people trying to do a twin turbo vg30et and never did it. You better show pics when you are done. and get some time slips too. good luck on the project.

the problem with the water neck was that it would have \been the highest point in my cooling system. the intake manifold would have been lower and so would have been the radiator. now this would have been fine and all, but its ****ing causing a major problem for hood clearance. so something had to be done about it.

the twin turbo setup. hahaha.

dont' worry, i've been around and into the z's for quite some time now. longer than 6 years, jesus it's been a while. as far as the ipcs and time slips, how about a video of the car at the track, and with the hood popped ? ;-)

it will be done eventually, just gonna take a little bit more time than i have to get it done immediately, so things are getting done in stages.
