I installed the safc yest. I also ordered new bearings for my camber plates. I also got some 24.5x8x14 M/T slicks for the Sentra.

You misunderstood my humor. I wasn't making fun of anyone. I was just making a stupid statement.

Now hear this 300zx wheel guy.. Dandy and I have talked on several occasions and he mentioned he might being going 3.5L sooner or later, so maybe he got a deal and decided to upgrade. Or, perhaps he's a die-hard VQ30 fan until the end such as myself.

I know you were being facetious, but still

It eats all the oil and parts inside for more power. Nissan had to stop making them because some users were using them as trash disposals, can we say DeLorean and time travel?!!

It has more toark because of the bigger cylinders. And I'm not the 300zx wheel guy, now I'm the lighting elitist guy. Bixenon retrofit or bust!

Now will he is the question.

lol. I find it funny that you guys think I'm some kind of VQ30 buff or die-hard fan.

The ONLY reason I said I would keep a 3L for ONE more year was money. It's not that I stuck with the 3.0, it's more like I'm stuck with it , lol, since I have to get some things done on the house and I can't sink all kinds of $$$ into the car. Well that and I never got my 12.xx with the 3L, and I know it will do it with the right conditions, so in part I am also being stubborn on that goal and want to see it achieved.

But seriously, I'd LOVE to be on to a 3.5! But to whoever is going to say "why not now, the engine swap's only $1k etc etc"... well the thing is it's not going to cost me just $1000 for the engine and throw it in there with an A32 ECU like 90% of the VQ35 swaps currently. I'm not knocking the guys that have gone that route, only saying that I have some serious plans that will take cash that I can't spend this year because of the house. If I can't do all that I want to next year again because of money, then I will at least go to a 3.5 in some kind of interim form. There are other things to life besides cars, as much as I'd love to blow tons of money on the car right this minute!

So for this season, a DEK will be going in. But it won't be stock internally...

BTW, at the end of the season, or early next year, there's a pretty solid chance I'll be selling the engine in preparation for the 3.5 going in.

Here's my list:

A-pillar triple pod

NX Pressure Gauge
Pyrometer
FPR
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
New CV's

I have a closet at my house and half of my garage full of parts for the Maxi! I need to get started on my bodywork first though. I've had my Nitrous half hooked up for so long, I don't know if I will even finish it now. Thinking about getting a V2 for it.

Sticking with the 3.0 USIM until the chassis is right and a BBK is in. Many variables determine what route for power I will take in the future
