Woo Hoo!!! Finally on the road :hyper::hyper::hyper:

Taxed and tested today, straight through MOT and have done about 2 hours driving running in. No leaks and nothing caught fire or fell off so a success as far as I'm concerned!

 

First impressions:

Front suspension geometry is miles off, makes for interesting cornering.

Engine is bloody responsive, mapping very crude just now but even so, the throttle response is almost telepathic and it pulls VERY well as far as I have tried it.

Car feels much more alive with all the solid mounts etc. There is no slack anywhere.

The V8 sound is awesome - will get some vids ASAP

wow...!!

What V8 are you running matey? Sounds a good project!

 

Spec in the end, (briefly):

VH45DE V8 bored to 5l

.....

 

;)

 

Its a Nissan V8 from the Infiniti Range, specifically from the Infininti Q45, and is a derritive of the V8 Nissan used in Racing.

 

The Ultimate V8 300zx :bow: :cool:
