Message	Been working on the Z slowly but surely. Planning on having it back up and running by end of march/beginning of april. I recently installed a new OEM T belt and tensioner and noticed the aftermarket that had no timing marks on it was 2 teeth off. That should explain my timing and misfire problem. I deleted the entire AC and heater systems, relocated the powersteering reservior, installed Ash planar inlet pipes and IC piping. Now im waiting on UPS to deliver a Blitz SBC i-D Spec-R Boost Controller, and Selin translator with a MAF and POP filter. Still have a few things left to do like decide on a large powersteering cooler and plumb it all together with the new reservoir location, order and install V3 Massives, order a new battery and cables to locate it in the hatch, figure out how to install the factory recircs, new starter, and SZ 3 inch cat back exhaust, and still hoping that RobZ 62mm TB's work out. I also bought another intake plenum to start shaving anything that i dont plan on using off of it (PCV ports, seal the balance tube openings and install AN fittings and hose on bottom, shave all casting marks and bracket holes, etc). The piping was a pain to get in properly, but its in finally. Once I get the IC's and TB's ill fine tune how its sitting in there. Anyways thought Id share some pics. Comments are always welcome good or bad...
