Took the rear panel and deck lid off today. Going to bond in some tabs for mesh. Cleaned up the wiring for the rear so the panels can be unplugged and removed easily. Epoxied in front signals. Need to paint the inside of the side pods this week and figure out how to secure mesh in there...

Added disconnects for my tail lights in case I ever have to remove the rear panel. Going to remove the rear panel for mesh install. To make it look cleaner, fit tighter. Made an engine floor close-out panel. Put a heat shield over the starter. Hope to eliminate heat soak and locking up.

I like my kwik-load tilt trailer. I did add extra locking pins for the roller mechanism to the central lock. Extra security. And extra things on the check list to do before loading/unloading.

Did get the hard start when hot issue. 0G from battery to starter. Will check grounds and battery terminals. Will wrap starter and install a heat shield. With vss hooked up, no stalling.

Shake down run at AMP in Dawsonville GA was a success. 15 laps, no issues. Lots more setup and finish work to do, but major hurdle tackled.

Baked on cookie sheet at 425 for 30 min. Needs to be hotter. I used MAP torch for two minutes and it dropped right on. Drifted it down with hammer and steel drift. Marked and measured location for hole in heat shield. Shaft remounted and torqued to 57 ft/lbs. The tone ring /...

This is the ring from driveshaft shop. It looks like I remove the half shaft and gently clamp it into a vice vertically, with the dark steel part at the top. Heat up the ring until a bluish hue, and drop it on. Then use aluminum drift if needed to ensure it is past the mating surface. If I am...

Picking off easy stuff. Got to spray the inside of the side pods, mount the front mesh. Every weekend is a little closer. If weather cooperates, I will be at AMP in Dawsonville Friday or Saturday for some slow test laps.

https://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-D1741C-Professional-Multi-Purpose-Relay/dp/B000C9Q19I D1741C is correct part number. Typo above.

Paperwork completed by local PD and in the mail. Hoping for less bumps in the road for MT registration and title. Already insured through Hagerty. Would be a joy to zip tie a tag to rear mesh in s few weeks.

Rivnuts came today. Next weekend I will get the mesh mounted, 3rd brake light mounted, and VSS sensor done.

Started mesh. Much easier than I thought it would be. Make it too big, then trim. Used www.customcargrills.com Diamond XXL in black. Just mocked in. Will get painted before I install mesh. Ordered more rivnuts for front mesh and painted silver aluminum flat black. Made up some bonded...

Talked to tuner. He said it will run better and smoother if I hook up the VSS for the GMPP. Ordered reluctor from driveshaftshop. 106mm and mounts on half shaft of graziano. Using AC Delco sensor mentioned in VSS thread here. AC 213-344. Also going to fab up mounts for mesh by welding...

I keep the low pressure pump on. I only flip the switch if the acc position is on and the motor is not running so I do not have to hear the pump running. When building the car and testing things out, I am in the accessory position a lot. Can take switch out in future and just keep it on the...

The relay is a standard relay, I had a few lying around my garage. I just use Amazon for knobs and stuff. The GMPP is the compute that comes with the engine. It has a thick gauge wire for the main fuel pump from the GM fuse box.

I have the Superlite complete fuel system for the GT-R. The PDF is a diagram of all components and I added my wiring from the GMPP. I have a separate relay and a switch in the dash for the lift pump.

Running at 198 on idle and no more trapped air. Loaded on Trailer for Caffeine and Octane in the morning. If the weather is good I will be at Atlanta Motorsports Park next weekend.

I have this setup (I believe). I have a remote battery disconnect/kill switch. It kills all power, but engine continues running after I hit the button. I need to (I think) cut the wire and run it separate to the kill switch to fix it.

Tapping. Some folks do this for the looks. Others do it to have an NPT to -AN line for heater hose. Me: Just to stop a leak. Summit Racing: You put a 1/2"-14NPT into a 3/8" bag. Shame on you. Dexcool. Lots of it. Probably holds 3.5 gallons. I think I have been through 8 gallons so...

Is this a common problem? The LS7 in a GT-R has a stock water pump that can be removed with the engine in place. 6 bolts (all the same size). Belt slides off tensioner and can be removed. 4 hoses removed from water pump (used clean 5 gallon bucket to be able to recycle some Dex-cool). SLC...
