Custom headers and cam timing are next, if that doesn’t break the 6K barrier then intake revisions (plenum and throttle bodies) are probably next. For now I’m just going to drive it and enjoy the ride. Just had a great time at Japfest Goodwood followed by a track day there yesterday. Black Sunshine got a lot of attention and held its own on the track, what a great car to drive!

I am planning an engine swap for my zed just to do something differnt and these are the choices before me :
VQ30DET 280hp/285tq
VQ30DE-K 222hp/ 217tq
VQ35DE 255hp/246tq (350z)
all mated to a 6 speed gearbox....
my dilemma is go with the VQ30DET where little is know about it , go with a VQ30DE-k and use the extra cash to turbo chargre it
Go with the VQ35DE but will have to stay NA for a while....what do you guys think??
Why i choose the VQ line of engines is because they are 30% lighter than a VG and close to 40% lighter with the VQ35
