That project car sounds like a disaster. 2.8L on 12psi and making only 270whp is pretty lame. S30 chassis are already super flimsy. I can't imagine what cutting the roof off would do. Ugh, FMIC ruining the beautiful Z nose.
its not tuned, nor is it running right lol and you cant see the fmic. trust me, this guys cars are cleaner than anyone on this forum currently owns/ ever owned that i have seen. I would eat off of his engine bay. he isnt about making big power, he likes them in stock form, he just wanted to do something different than the previous 25-30 he has owned. he is not the typical tr z owner lol. 20k on paint alone. but i understand how you see those numbers being low, once its running right, id estimate around 380-420 on a conservative tune. i wish i would have taked pictures so you could see what i was even talking about.
and sean, i think im picking up that motor i was telling you about. for the low low low lol
