Senza pari 280z build

This build will go down in the history of 280Z builds and make no mistake Sir, you have pissed off hundreds of cats who thought they’re builds would never be out-done.
I salute you……………….
I have but one request; there is nothing on the planet sexier than a Nissan straight six completely worked with Webbers laying on the side.
I realize the engine is an old design, and I realize that you can get massive amounts of power from other units.
I also realize given the weight-to-power ratio’s with those monster motors the car basically becomes a skateboard with a Chevy 350 attached to it and all the handling capabilities go out the window.
All you’ll do is get sideways every time you bang the stick, and the rear will never hold with all those horses.
Please consider putting in a massaged straight six that will give you all the power you need as well as keep things very “Z-Looking” shall we say.
I’ll respect whatever you do in the end, but I’d love to a “Z” motor in the engine bay when she’s all done……………

I do love the straight six, and the noise can't be beat, but for this build it needs to be a little more wild. The twin turbo setup will let me getting funky with the exhaust and plumbing, which I just can't do without:-)

Although delayed for a few months due to the Subaru explosion, the motor of choice is finally here. And who knows, if it wasn't for that I may not have even went this route, but I believe it was for the best.
The motor looks huge with all of the stock manifolds and wiring still intact, buts it's actually quite compact.

Wait I feel dumb isn't this a 300zx engine?Originally posted by JC.'Stance' doesn't have to be scraping your car along the floor, that is simply the scene that has caught on. As long as your car looks amazing (in your eyes) while your rolling down the street, that is your own personal perfect stance.
Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

Huh! Swear I thought he was getting a 350z engine, and I have to admit I recognize the engine because of Sir in the post above me's build/engine bay shaving thread! I am so excited to see this start to take shape!Originally posted by JC.'Stance' doesn't have to be scraping your car along the floor, that is simply the scene that has caught on.
