  1. Been super sick. I will start hitting it hard this weekend again.
  2. Dude...... Turbo...... Fuckin awesome! Have fun in Japan you lucky bastard! :thumbup:
  3. Started body work. Hoping to have an update within a couple weeks. :thumbup:
  4. Sick Cant wait to see it :w00t:
  5. I agree, that probably wouldn't be the worst idea. I'm sure theyre could be a close match if you were look through parts house hose catalog. But for a quick off the wall grab it is pretty damn close after modifying.
  6. Well as it turns out the the pcv hose for my 77 280z w/L28 has been discontinued thru the dealer. Also upon further searching the parts houses where i live do not even show a listing for it. ( CarQuest, Napa, Oreily's, AutoZone) So I decided to ask if I could look at there molded heater hoses. To look for a close match. I found that the Gates Heater hose PN 19726 fits with some cutting. It is not perfect, But it does not kink when making the transition from the block to the pcv at the bottom of the intake. Granted you can find the original hoses (NOS) online but they are $50 +/- So Why not just spend 15 bucks and have an alternative route :thumbup: This hose features the belled end to fit over the block end metal extension and necks down to just over the size of the pcv inlet. Here is the broken original PCV hose, im sure if you are looking at this post then you are familiar with how brittle they are and break easy Here is the part number tag And here is the section that was removed in order to fit.. Installed photos of the actual piece retained after excess was removed. If you look, you can see the belled end at the block and the slightly over sized end at the PCV. The over sized end needn't worry you After I installed this, I smoked the system and no vacuum leak was detected. I really hope this helps you guys, I know that I was getting upset searching for these with no luck and only finding ppl selling randomly for more than 50 dollars for something rubber and so simple.
  7. I have been seeing your car everywhere.
  8. Sweet deal on the SR man. That should scream in your 710. Im not super familiar with the SR20DE. Is this the single or dual overhead cam? I was really digging the raw finish you had but that plastidip looks great bro. Keep up the good work. Were you able to find some blocks for the rear end to squat it more?
  9. Great looking 240 man. The hood mural is absolutly epic! :thumbup: B) :ninja:
  10. I wont be ready yet. I'll be there next year for sure.
  11. God I wish I could make it this year..... :fu:
