Here are SOME of the boxes that I have :)
 SOME of my replacement parts....(full 120k kit,PCV valves, valve cover gaskets, oil pump, 5 bolt custom 3" downpipes,GT28R turbos w/ HKS wastegate actuators, Water injection pump, accumulator etc, Water wetter, New EFI harness, New 02's, New TPS, NISMO oil cap, NISMO Thermostat, NISMO Radiator cap, ALL turbo coolant lines were replaced with carburated fuel hose using Aircraft grade locking clamps, GReddy 3-row FMIC (polished), Howe radiator, Border 850cc fuel rail, Denso/Sard 850cc injectors, several 60u00 filters, 2 JWT Air filters, Dual MAS, Apexi AFC, Apexi AVCR, Techtom MDM-100, Royal purple engine oils, MANY more things...

Custom 3" GD down pipes (Thanks Greg and BoostPro.net)
GReddy Thickness...(thanks Coz and BoostPro)
Howe Radiator Thickness...(Thanks Z1) (There was some very minor trimming that was needed but it was very much a drop in replacement, I highly recommend it)
 My custom Secondary balance tube setup (To address what a FMIC does to a VG30DETT engine (crossflow etc) These are -16A/N fittings, tig welded to hardpipes. Seems to be working out very well so far....

Adjustable Fuel Pressure regulator (Very dirty, I Know I need to clean it up :) (props to Dee Ridgeway- (Slow Ninja for sourcing it for me.
Here are my Defi Gauges (I have boost, fuel pressure, EGTx2, and two control units)
Stillen Dash housing, It will hold my lovely MDM-100 Techtom unit (Thanks Arnel!) 
And of course... Everyone's favorite, THE MONEY SHOT
Unfortunately this is all I have left :)
I really like the GT28R BB turbos, I set the wastegate actuators @ 17psi, Which gives me ~15psi on base boost due to the flapper door pressure/heat. VERY quick response/spool up (even with my 24"x12"x4.5" thick GReddy FMIC) My spool up is still VERY fast with the Pressure drop. I would HIGHLY recommend these turbos to any STREET Z. They are just a little bigger than the 530bb's and if you have some mechanical/fabrication know-how and the motivation to do it, ($1316 shipped is what I paid for my GT28R turbos, And another $170 for the HKS actuators), I saved a crap load of money by doing this project. I am very glad that I did. As for the FMIC ( I know just about everyone on TT.net hates them and YEA SMIC's are better for most things) BUT... I wanted to cool my boost down as much as possible and it also looks very mean :) I addressed all of the 'problems' that people have with the FMIC on a Z. The overheating (I have HAD ZERO problems with overheating), and the main problem which was Nissan's self balancing system (crossflowing, Driver turbo feeds passenger bank, vise versa). I addressed the problem by adding a secondary balance tube. The 2ndary BT is 1" inside dia. That is much larger than Nissan's stock balance tube, It should be sufficient in helping my motor crossflow running a MAX of 23psi on water injection/race. Next is a Wet direct port nitrous setup, I have a spare chromed plenum that I am adding the jets to. I am hoping to break the 600rwhp barrier (get me into Joel's list/site :), and also get into some solid 10's. Of course the nitrous setup will have a window switch for safety. And when I run into some free time I would like to start to fab up my 2.5" intercooler/Intake piping. Let me know what you guys think! :) Be nice

 NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin.
