So I've been working on my z for about a year now. I bought a 94 na-tt auto swap. Drove from right below Charlotte NC to Lynchburg VA & got it. Paid 4k got some receipts & drove it home. Turned out that the easy way was taken on most of the swap. Bootleg intake pipes, no boost controller of any kind (just wastegate pressure), wrong plugs, na auto tranny, no bypasses or deletes done, no new hoses or lines. It was a mess really. On top of needing paint. In hindsight I should have spent twice as much & got twice as much car. Any how my little project turned into a partial restore. So my performance modding had to take a back seat. Luckily the body & chassis were good & only had 135k. So timing kit, valve cover gaskets, pcv valves, silicone hoses, throttle body coolant bypass, egr delete, carbon canister delete, new fuel lines, new vacuum hoses, correct plugs gapped for 15psi. Then the na tranny crapped out, so fresh tt auto was found. Transgo shift correction kit was installed, accumulators were blocked, new filter, & trans cooler installed. Full megan turbo back exhaust, pop charger, hallman pro mbc, & autometer voost gauge installed. New rotors all around, stoptech sport pads, master cylinder brance, & new fluid. Then all 4 struts were replaced along with new rubber pieces. Subframe spacers & nismo tranny mount installed. That was it for a while & have been running 10psi. Got my hands on a set of stillen intercoolers & silicone couplers. Came across a 90 tt that spun a rod bearing but had lots of goodies so I picked it up. Pulled off the dual intake & jdm front fascia. Car got sanded, primed, resanded, sprayed at macco, then wet sanded & buffed. I'm in the process of redoing the seats. Passenger is done. I finally was at a point I felt like I could pull the ecu & send it out. Sorry for the novel but I'm excited, I'll try to get some pictures up.
