This video was meant for the sound so don't expect much as far as the peeps are concerned....I hope you enjoy the exhaust note as much as I do!

Don't mind the white exhaust tips...It's not lean....I'm burning 110 leaded, Hence the SN.

Made me make a mess of my keyboard!

Sounds beautiful! It's music to my ears...

Cameraman sucked though...especially in the 2nd vid But then again he/she was in a moving car...

If I saw that thing on the street while driving I dunno what i'd do...probably end up following you haha

BTW your rear window is crystal clear...what are you using to keep it that way? Plexus?

Absolutely spectacular!!!!!

Thanks so much for sharing. I love the pitch of a powerful 6 cylander car.... it's such a beautiful tune. Not the angry bee sounds of a 4 and not the gargle of an 8. 6 cylander cars rule!!!

I have got to get my car back on the road.. I don't even remember what my RB20 sounds like anymore..

110, that is awesome. I can imagine the average joe looking at your car on the street and going "WTF is that?!?!"

If you don't mind, can you please comment on the swap? How does it run, are there any "quirks" like your gauges not working, how much did it cost to have the shop do it, etc.? I'm thinking about doing a mostly stock VQ swap next year for the low end power and reliability aspects. SpecDRacing has been posting about his VQ swap, but he keeps running into issues.

Hey man...I never got a chance to pick up a copy of the magazine, but was wondering what size wheels your running on that thing. I am in the process of building one with 20mm and 50mm fenders. I have no idea where to start with width and offset. I love the look of your setup. Sorry if I am asking a question that has been asked/answered before.

110octane-

Very nice ride. I was happy to see this in the mag. I put a VQ in a 93 hatch. Got it running at chirstmas, but things have moved slowly since. Our driveshaft took way longer to get built than expected, not to mention the slow parts arrivals. I installed this motor with a stock 04 350z ecm along with the NATS system. I was wondering what engine management you guys are using, and how is the 4.1 conversion comming along.

Very nice ride. Very nice.

Markhttp://forums.nicoclub.com/zer...07033The car I'm building, plus my personal VQ setup.

Later.

glad i could help bring these guys together

anyways, i can't believe i didn't post on this thread before... anyway, mick, i think you should put a calendar together of what events, shows, and things you're going to be at this season. it'd be great to come out and see this car if we ever cross paths.

again, mad props on a GREAT car.

also, vert guys, if you haven't seen mark's project, you need to go check it out. it's one of the better project logs i've read. skip most of the crap between his posts and it makes for a better read.
