Your idea to get it dead nuts is great, but as a cost/time effective compromise, would it not be beneficial to at least smooth the transitions slightly with a Dremel? I appreciate it’s not going to be perfect but it seems a shame to have all that lovely laminar flow slamming into a flat face like that, it can be made significantly better with little work? I know it’s only a small face, but it will certainly cause turbulence and undo a certain amount of the good work already achieved; a small lip means it’s also easier to buzz a transition into?

I looked into this when mine was off the road for the same reason. I recall different companies giving it different names like “laid up” insurance etc. I think the premium cost was similar to a normal premium and as I didn’t know how long it would be off the road for I just took out a normal premium. Footman James are usually very good with these bespoke type policies, they may be a good place to start to get some quote comparisons with the other usual suspects.

How often do they need replacing or servicing and do they have a bypass function? It would be interesting to see how they affect flow and pressure through the turbos.

Welcome to the 300zx Owners Club?

There were voices down the corridor

Do they port match your manifolds and gaskets to the lovely new machined heads?

Don’t tar me with that aviation nerd brush! Nevertheless, I’m in! 1: Funkysi (Simon) 2: AndrewG 3: nickz32 4: Joely P

It seems pretty hit and miss on mine too, I’m fairly sure it should upload to YouTube in 720p, which shouldn’t look too bad on a mobile?

I’ve never seen the logic in having a boost controller that you change dependant on the weather, I say leave it as it is and control it with your right foot! I’m in the fit and forget gang, mine is in the glove box. Interestingly, regarding the discussion/row/handbags/other dimension of this thread, when Jim fitted Z1 GT525 turbos to mine with no other mods (excluding filter and exhaust that were already fitted), the duty cycle peaked at 95% at only 9PSI in the rolling road. How does this work for your calculations Nick?

Z porn, pass me the tissues!

Just playing around with this editing malarkey and getting some use out of the drone! [emoji41]

Cool we got the monorail spot again, albeit a smaller pitch. Did anyone see what the peoples choice cars were?

Happy Birthday Russ xxx

Win!

Looking forward to seeing it with the new wing on Howard. That’s a great choice.

Love it [emoji106]

Good work Dave, make sure you give the underside of the car body some tlc too when the old tank is out of the way. A fine opportunity to clean it up, treat anywhere as required and get some fresh underseal up there!

Welcome back Trish [emoji106]

Going to be a relatively quiet show for the club this year, hope it’s a good one guys, enjoy. [emoji41]

They wanted to land an aircraft safely, not play snake! [emoji13]

I would recommend a SZ billet flywheel: https://www.specialtyz.com/300zx/clutch-flywheel/sz-flywheel-vg30de-tt.html

Ever the sceptic Jeff!

How long ago was this, Lee? The feel of the new RPS is significantly different to the old one and unbelievably light to use, a dream to drive with for a clutch of its performance capabilities!
