What can i say,i have driven some cars in my time but this ticks all the box's. Way better than the Ferrari 360 a few months back,was the quickest car on the track,even trounced the Lambo LP 640,.When i had finished all i could think of was i got to get one of these before i am too fookin old to gun it:D Truly remarkable and for peanuts compared to some on the track.:bow: Tony

Is my tub on its way out
Ok may i suggest that when you get car done you refrain from WOT until you have been on rollers,better safe than sorry.I had issues with a previous Z,long story,but basicaly me and previuos owner had an engine let go,mine was crack in piston(No6) could not realy figure why, was running 555s,Sport 500 Tubs,Large Intercoolers,HKS Boost,etc.When i got the next motor in i went straight to Thor Racing,turns out that there was det but you would never of heard it at WOT as the sound frequency was inaudible,but showed up on the power runs,one of the reasons was the JWT,it was very very lean at top end,but with this chip i was always under the impresion they ran a bit richer to help combat det etc,so i decided to ditch it and get JD to do me a mild map,at the same time i got Thor to fit a FSE Power Boost Vavle(had issues on more than one occasion with the stock fuel pressure reg)and a blank thread plug fitted for Wideband 02 on down pipe on right hand engine side as like i said No6 runs hotter than the rest so not only can you attach sensor you can monitor whats happening better when setting up,so back to Thor,after a few runs and a bit of tweaking it went from 300 at the wheels to 361,torque went from 262 to 369:D,all on stock internals.Never had a running problem after that,Z still going strong by all accounts.If i alterd anything on car after that like intake or running more boost i went back to Thor,reason being at least i knew all was ok.

Have been reading your old posts and i see you have had a few niggles with it since rebuild,are you still running the JWT Chip,and importantly has it ever been on rollers since rebuild to check it all out. Tony

Is my tub on its way out
I see,well i would put money on tubs being ok,is the engine coming out to do them,did engine come out when the 530s were fitted.

Does it smoke more when hot,or from cold.

Sounds like the were not fitted to correct torque(my T5 tub was fitted 4 months before i got it!) Are the PCV Valves newish or old,if old change them.

Is my tub on its way out
Hope its not tubs, to be honest it does not sound like it is,the JWT Sport 530 tubs you have are very strong,never read or known of them giving out,if fact they attained one of the best reliability records in the USA,same as the Sport 500 in thier day.(one Z i had ran 500s and took some real abuse and still running)You may of had a small amount of oil starvation that has caused premature wear but doubt it,could be gasket,that can cause rattle/blow-bye(has same on a T5)and yes it will still perform ok.(ie boost) Tony
