I just installed 5.5" 10000 RPM clutch. Stiff as hell. I'm using stock Nissan throwout bearing. Should I be using or doing something different? -
Thanks for comments. This rear brake setup is from Arizona Z http://www.arizonazcar.com/brake.html Thanks again Pancho for wheel studs. Which I did shorten. Finding the right size 15.5mm drill bit was the hard part. Cheers -
I guess I better pull head off and take a look.

I had an interesting thing happen this morning. After getting my alignment yesterday I was going to take the Z out for a shakedown at the autocross track. My engine is fresh with about 2 hrs on it. I hit start button a little backfire and thats it.It wouldn't start. Thought it was flooded. Nope. Checked spark. OK Took valve cover off, got my wife to hit start button and to my perplexed eye's saw the cam sprocket spinning but not the cam. What the F#@*% I preceded to pull cam sprocket off. Is'nt there supposed to be a dowel of some sort? Pull the sprocket back a bit further and hear a clink clink as the missing dowel fell out of cam sprocked into oil pan. SH%T Here we go. One hour later front of engine pulled apart. I fish this magnetic retractible stick I just bought and behold, pull out the dowel. Has anyone had this happen to them or heard of such a thing? I'm glad this happened at start up and not at 100mph down the straight away. If that happened at 8000rpm can you imagine. I can. :eek: Anyway I'll be off to the cam mfg tommorow.

Pancho long time no chat. Looks like your outdoing yourself again. Completely mind blowing, the attention to detail. What type of calipers are those? -
Nice Job! Very clean -
Nice job. -
Hey New Jersey How about white bottom fading to blue grey on top like a shark. + Dorsal fin -
The amount of stripes is an ongoing debate. Too many and it might loose the effect. Maybe less is more! I probably will slap a few more on. I kinda threw it together for display event. Plus I need them to hold the body work together ;^) Yes I have stepped on it. Still needs more shakedown. It takes awhile to get use to the noise of a 300hp rolling tin can. Graphic ideas will be submitted to managment for review.

Your out of control Pancho. Your build better make it in a magazine somewhere. At least. Unbelievable.......... -

Just have to modify gas pedal and that'll be it.

Looks good. Been there. It's especially fun when it falls off jack and tranny fluid pours out the end. That's if you install with fluid in it. -
